| Turbowedge 1 | Turbowedge 2 |
For all-around price and performance, the versatility of the TurboWedge provides the user with a multitude of features and functions. The use of state-of-the-art powerful and flexible Flash EPROM technology has allowed Compsee to develop a small footprint wedge that combines all the features of previous Compsee wedges with numerous new user-friendly program parameters.
The TurboWedge excels when it comes to input and output options. Input devices supported include bar code readers, Magnetic Stripe Readers and RS 232 input devices such as scales and portable terminals. Data passing through the TurboWedge can be decoded, edited and transmitted either as keyboard input or RS 232 ASCII. Wedge interface connections supported include all types of PC's and clones, as well as a variety f other terminals from DEC, IBM, HP, Wyse, etc.
Installation of he wedge is simple and fast, simply plug in between the keyboard and the terminal. For customization, the user can choose from seven different methods to program the TurboWedge set-up parameters. Added to the traditional menu and cloning methods is serial or bar code batch, bar code learn, on-screen or Compsee's Windows-based PC program, Win Cape.
As with all Compsee wedges, the TurboWedge contains powerful editing features that allow the user to qualify the data input, inhibit invalid data from passing through and then format the output of the data to match the applications input screen.
