Ranger - Next generation

Ultra-rugged for all environments

The Ranger® handheld computer possesses features that field professionals depend on, like field-ready ruggedness, 30-hour battery and an easy-to-use keypad and touchscreen. With two CompactFlash (CF) slots and a Secure Data (SD) slot you can increase data storage and add multiple accessories such as GPS, GPRS, RFID-readers and other CF devices. Using the SD slot lets you add data storage without sacrificing a CF slot. Integrated Bluetooth is standard on the Ranger 500X and optional on the Ranger 300X. Integrated 802.11b wireless is optional for both models. The Ranger also comes with speaker and microphone.

The Ranger provides you with everything you need from a handheld data collector and features an easy-to-read display for all kinds of lighting conditions, even direct sunlight. The waterproof Ranger combines military-grade durability with a Windows Mobile 5.0 operating system and up to 512 MB of Flash memory. The Ranger can quickly process even the most graphic-intensive applications and delivers that performance in the most challenging work environments. It handles extreme heat, up to 122 °F and extreme cold, down to -22 °F.

Not just a pretty face, the Ranger meets or exceeds the 810F military and IP67 standards for drops, vibration, altitude, dust, corrosion and water immersion. The construction makes it lightweight, yet rugged and the exterior design provides a great grip in any weather. Ergonomic navigation, alpha and numeric keypads make it easy to operate even when wearing gloves. This combined with its long battery life makes the Ranger the ultimate choice for tough outdoor conditions.

Everything about the Ranger is designed to make it tough on the job - and easy on you.
