[QUOTE="HomeDelivery, post: 979532, member: 33696"] we had some people using these new scanners; guess it's similar to ground? i was given this one this past saturday without any training at all :zombismiley: [ATTACH]6891.vB[/ATTACH] built-in camera; can we use it to take photos of our driver-releases? or for any possible claims? (i currently do that with my cellphone's crappy camera) nice that the stylus has a tether strap to it as well the side yellow scan buttons are sometimes cumbersome because they can be accidentally hit. don't know about the gray side buttons are for yet. [ATTACH]6892.vB[/ATTACH] " Chicklet buttons" WTF?!? I preferred the rounded buttons of our older scanners! nice that the yellow number buttons, along with the yellow right button to switch from letters to #s input is highlighted. the touchscreen interface is similar to our old scanners, so that's why they just gave me the thing without any training... it's more sensitive because sometimes when i arrived to a stop, the manifest isn't there & i had to log back into P&D (pickup & delivery mode) which takes some time strong laser & has crosshairs vs the flat line of our old scanners; neat that it can scan in pure daylight! slower than our older scanners in terms of processing the info after the scan is made... ============================== still dunno what those other buttons are for yet; hopefully they'll have some brochure i can read so i can fully use it when I wanted to see the full tracking number; it gets cut off on the screen, not like our old scanners I still haven't come up to the following problem yet; when the barcode is smudged/ripped off, what buttons do you push to manually enter the tracking number? is it still shift-scan? battery life on this new motorolla scanner is shorter than our old ones; maybe because they have some hidden programs inside of it that's running?!? we are now carrying a spare battery just in case. I almost had to use my spare after 10 hours on the road (was down to 12% life before i logged it off & this was a light day) ------------------------------------------------------------- i know ground has the capability to get texts from their terminal? and vice-versa? you can text your terminal with this scanner?!? some rural areas that i run on doesn't have cellphone reception & i'll get phone messages after i have left the delivery area holster is on the "loose side" as well as the pen holders on that holster. the scanner or my backup stylus & pen haven't slipped off of it yet...
