Intermec CN3G/CN3eG PDCD
General and Recommended Setting Changes
The Intermec CN3G/CN3eG PDCDs (Portable Data Collection Device) are the latest
addition to DPAS approved PDCD list. The CN3G/CN3eG are over two times faster and
have three times the memory than the Intermec 751G. They have a default operating
system of Windows Mobile 6 compared to the less efficient 751G operating system of
Win CE.net.
One of the biggest advantages is the ability to remove the battery for a long period of
time, replace it, and still have all the DPAS application information. DPAS Columbus has
successfully tested this for up to eight days.
