WF35

Reliable wireless communication

By enhancing the driver/firmware of the Wi-Fi module, the WF35 is able to deliver a reliable wireless communication environment through its Single/locked SSID, seamless roaming across APs (Access Point) and automatic signal drop reconnection. With these technologies, handheld POS solutions can be implemented reliably within small or large-scale restaurant and hotel operations.

Power saving technology

The requirements for hospitality and restaurant PDA operations are different from consumer PDA’s. The WF35 implements a special Sleep Mode as well as an Always-on feature that enables it to consume a mere 2% of normal power consumption. In this mode, the WF35 stays connected with the host application yet operates for double the battery run time as compared to standard consumer PDA’s

Easy to manage and deploy

To deploy multiple PDAs at a consumer site is never an easy task. So, to help manage the use of the WF35, it comes with two modes of operation: Administration and User Modes. System settings and parameters are stored under the Administration Mode and users cannot modify settings without proper authority. In User Mode, only designated applications can be viewed and executed. Functions such as file copy, music, video and games are all removed. The built-in “Ghost1” feature acts as a systems back up allowing uniform system settings or customized settings to be saved for each unique site.

Features

• Single SSID: Modified at driver / firmware level, only designated SSID will be detected and connected in single or multiple access point environment
