NEW DOCKING STATION FOR PERCON PORTABLES PROVIDES CONVENIENT DATA TRANSFER
AND BATTERY RECHARGING

EUGENE, OR--Percon announces the PT Dock, a convenient alternative for
transmitting data to and from the Percon PT 2000 and TopGun portable data
collection terminals.

To use the PT Dock, the user must first attach the provided adapter to the
bottom of the Percon portable. Then, instead of attaching a cable to
recharge the portable's NiCad batteries or transmit data to and from the
portable, the user simply places the unit into the dock, and presses the
upload key. Data is transmitted in seconds. When data transfer is
complete, the portable unit may be removed from the dock for additional
scanning.

When uploading or downloading information, a serial cable is connected from
the PT Dock to the host computer. IBM AT, PS/2, and terminal keyboard
wedge configurations are also available, and require no additional cable
to connect the PT Dock between the keyboard and host computer. This
configuration allows the user to use the Percon portable as a
fixed-station scanning device, with the option to remove it from the PT
Dock at any time for portable scanning.

Two options are available for power: a 110-volt or 220-volt power supply.
The portable's NiCad batteries and 10-day lithium back up battery can be
fully recharged within eight hours of placing the Percon portable in the
PT Dock. When using the PT Dock in the keyboard wedge configuration, power
is drawn from the host computer and no power supply is necessary.

Constructed from an industrial, high-strength polycarbonate blend plastic
and an extruded aluminum base, the PT Dock is chemical and splash
resistant. A front dual LED display indicates if the NiCad batteries are
recharging or if the portable is properly seated in the unit.

The PT Dock comes complete with a one-year warranty. Extended and on-site
replacement warranties are also available. List price for the PT Dock is
$199 and includes the unit, portable adapter, and instruction guide. Power
supply and cables must be purchased separately.
