Worth Data has been the leader in small size, long range RF Terminals for over 15 years. Our engineers worked long and hard to create a superior product, and it is truly unmatched by any other mobile device on the market. Our incredible long RF range means less installation cost in wiring, special site preparation, expensive surveys, and the the need for far fewer access points — one single Base Station can easily handle the RF traffic of as many as 64 RF Terminals. Further, with the exceptional RF range, one Base Station can easily cover very large buildings and facilities, eliminating the need for costly additional wiring or multiple access points.
There are several configurations available including our most popular model, the LT7103H with a 1D bar code laser scanner and an ergonomic gun handle designed for comfortable all day scanning.
There are also models with our powerful 2D bar code scan engine built right into the unit.
Special Note: These are approved for license free use in the UK and most of Europe - We will only ship these units to one of those approved countries.

Small
but Powerful
Despite its small size and weight
- the mobile 7103 RF Terminals are less than 10 ounces with the integrated bar code laser scanner and Li-ion battery -
this unit can cover thousands of square meters of open warehouse space and
has over 450 meters of line of site RF range in an open area!
Simple Operation
Each scan, and each time you
press the Enter key, data is transmitted to the host.
The host software sends prompts back to the display and can
even trigger voice message broadcasts at the same time. Real time data transactions allow the operator to update a database, track products, do accounting tasks, warehouse management, and do many varied transactions all remotely with an easy to hold handheld device.
Commitment To Quality
The 7103 & LT7203 RF Terminals and Base Stations are proudly Made in the USA of U.S. and imported parts right in our California facility. Since we do all of own engineering, software development, product design, testing, and assembly we can control every aspect of the quality and features, providing you with a finished product that is simply the best available.
Rugged Design Features
The 7103 & 7203 terminals are designed for rugged environments and industrial applications. All units come with a die cast aluminum top cover which vastly improves the ruggedness of the units. The threaded antenna is easily replaced if needed. We also use a tough glass filled nylon for the housing and have updated the handle to be more rugged. Our tests show no damage after multiple 1.2 meter drops to concrete. We also offer a Silicone Boot or leather protective cover to protect the units from larger drops or damage.
Improved Ergonomics
The 7103 Series Terminal has also been designed with the ergonomics of the user in mind. It comes with a large, high visibility, 15 Line TFT Color QVGA LCD Display - plus the keypad layout has been designed to make scanning and keying easier. The small size and weight of the unit, along with the comfortable curved shape, make it very easy to hold and scan for long periods of time.
Our ergonomic handle is sold on the unit when you purchase any of the LT7xx3H models - you could also add a handle to your terminals at a later date if you want to by ordering the H7000 unit. The ergonomic handle makes scanning much easier for long term all day use and is more popular than the PDA style due to its ease of use.
Bar Code Scan Engine Options
The 7103 Terminals come with a 1D high speed laser scanner engine for traditional 1D linear bar codes. The LT7203 has a powerful 2D imaging scanner with industry leading high speed 1D and 2D bar code scanning.
1D Bar Code Scanning
The LT77103, LT7103H units come with a 1D bar code laser scanner built into the top of the unit. When you press the scan button, or the trigger on the handle, a laser beam scans at 100 times per second to pick up even poorly printed or damaged bar codes easily. The unit can also scan very high density codes with narrow bars as small as 2.5mil .0025" (0.064mm) - equivalent to 23cpi Code 39!
Bar code types supported include UPC/EAN, UCC-EAN-128, Code 39, Full ASCII Code 39, Code 128, GS1-128, ITF-14, GTIN, Codabar, MSI Plessey, GS1 DataBar (RSS-14) omni and stacked variants, ITF Interleaved 2 of 5, Standard 2 of 5, Bookland EAN, Code 11, LabelCode4, LabelCode5, Storage Tek, and Code 93. The reader auto discriminates automatically.
Below are the typical range of reading for the 7000 RF Terminals. A 6 mil barcode is considered high density, the 10mil and 14mil are typical general purpose medium density, and the 40 mil and 100 mil are large low density codes.
2D Bar Code Scanning
The LT7203, LT7203H, models come with a industry leading omni-directional 2D imaging barcode scan engine. When you press the scan button, or the trigger on the handle, the high speed imaging engine scans 2D matrix barcodes or 1D bar codes instantly. The scan engine is also omni-directional, so you don't have to have the bar code lined up to scan it.
It reads all popular 2D matrix type bar codes such as PDF417, MicroPDF417, MaxiCode, DataMatrix (ECC 2000, 1400), GS1-DataMatrix, Composite Codes, Aztec, QR Code, MicroQR Code, as well as USPS Intelligent Mail Bar Codes, US Postnet, US Planet, UK Postal, Japan Postal, Australian Postal, and Dutch Postal, along with many others. The 2D bar code can have up to 1024 characters encoded in the code.
In addition, it also reads standard 1D barcodes including; UPC/EAN, UCC-EAN 128, Code 39, Full ASCII Code 39, TriOptic Code 39, Code 32, Code 128, Codabar, MSI, Code 11, GS1 DataBar, Composite, ITF Interleaved 2 of 5, DTF Discrete 2 of 5, Bookland EAN, Code 93 and many others. The scan engine optics will scan very high density codes with narrow bars as small as 2.5mil .0025" (0.064mm).
Internal Li-ion Rechargeable Battery
We are using a industry standard NP-120 Li-ion battery in the unit which has a capacity of 1950mAh. In the event of failure this battery is field replaceable - via 2 screws on the door or handle. With our advanced battery
charging you can have a full charge in 2-3 hours
or less! Intelligent charging replenishes only the
power used - no need to fully discharge batteries or
wait through a full charging cycle for partially used
batteries! With the LT7x03H Handle units you get a second battery included in the handle which will effectively double the battery life of the unit.
Low Cost Mobile Computing System
A starter system of one LT7103 Terminal, one B557U Base Station, and a C21 USB cable is just €2300 - £2000. Additional
RF terminals are inexpensive starting at only €1595 - £1374
each. Up to 64 Terminals can talk to one Base Station with little or no contention.
You can start small, develop your applications, and then expand at a low incremental cost. Our unsurpassed RF performance, at the lowest price in the industry, results in an unbeatable value!

B557U Base Station Connection Options
The B557U Base Stations are available with multiple connection options - a serial interface, to a DB9 or DB25 COM Port, and a USB COM port connection.
Base Station Backward Compatibility
For users who have
software written for the older Worth Data 70 or 700 Series RF Terminals,
the B557U Base Stations maintain the same serial interface, so they will continue to work with your existing software without any changes. New programming will be required to support the 15 Line LCD if your software doesn't already support it.
Easy
to Implement
There is no programming
on the terminal. All programming is on the host computer
in the programming language of your choice. Your only requirement
is to send commands out to the associated COM port on your computer -- either Serial or USB on the B557U Base Station.
Any platform and any language can literally make
the terminal sing. Whether you write simple serial command strings or you use our supplied .NET or Active
X components, we make it easy for you.
There's only one program to write and maintain.
No development package is necessary to buy. All you need is supplied with the purchase of a RF Terminal and Base Station. It's the perfect product for developers who wish to distribute systems to remote locations.
Controlling
the RF Terminal
A
user program does not run on the RF Terminal. Prompts & Commands are sent to through the Base Station to the RF Terminals. There
are three levels of host computer programming support
provided for the RF Terminal:
Low Level Programming strings sent to the serial COM port, or USB COM port, is the most basic method of programming which applies to any language and any platform which can read and write to a serial port. For Windows users there is a free DLL provided to simplify the serial commands, and we also provide the USB driver to talk to the B5011 base station when it is attached via USB. Click here for details on our simple Low Level Programming.
.NET support is also provided which provides the overall structure and all routines which when completed, result in a running application. It is a .NET assembly that is compatible with Visual Studio and any .NET language including Visual Basic, Visual C++®, C#, etc... Click here to download the .NET installation package.
ActiveX support is also provided which provides the overall structure and all routines which when completed, result in a running application. It is compatible with Visual Basic, Visual C++®, Delphi, and most other Windows 32 bit development platforms. Click here to download the PromptCOM ActiveX PDF programming guide . You can also download the latest ActiveX for the 7000 here.
Again, there is no programming necessary on the RF Terminal itself. All programming is on the host computer and can be in Visual Basic, Access, C, Basic, etc. Any platform and any language that can read/write to a serial port can be used.
Protection Options
We have an optional leather carry case - Model F42 - that offers additional protection for your RF Terminal. The case has a clear cover over the keypad area, is padded, and has a shoulder strap. The case works with both PDA style units and the models with handles.
We also offer a Silicone Boot - Model SIL-BOOT - the boot has thick corners, and additional pocketed areas, to provide cushioning and protection from drops and hits. This will help protect your RF Terminals from accidental damage. The boot will work with both the PDA style units and models with handles. You can not use the SIL-BOOT and the F42 Leather case together.
Special Data Encryption
While it is unlikely that anyone would have the ability to monitor the RF data you are transmitting, if you do need more extensive security of your data the 7000 RF Terminal system offers optional encryption of the RF data traffic between the Base Station and the terminals. We use a proprietary 32-bit passcode encryption method to encrypt all of the data that is transferred over the RF spectrum. You choose the passcode and enter it into both the base station and each terminal to complete this security setup.
KwikCount/RF for Excel
All 7003 RF Terminals include our KwikCount/RF add-in for Excel! This add-in gives you a simple, interactive program development tool using Excel; right out of the box - no programming knowledge needed! If you can use Excel, then you can use KwikCount/RF to develop interactive real-time applications which use an Excel data base - including inventory, shipping, and receiving applications! Many applications include an import/export feature for Excel - allowing you to export your application's data, use KwikCount/RF to update the data base on-line, and then import the updated data back into your application - all with NO programming knowledge required! This is perfect for inventory, shipping, receiving and even shelf price verification! Not only can you collect data, but you can display data from the Excel data base to help the user make decisions based on the data in the computer files.
Optional & Upgradable Handle
The 7003 RF Terminal system offers an interchangeable battery door and handle system. You can either use the standard battery door, standard on the LT7103 & LT7203 models, or you can order the LT7103H or LT7203H models with the gun handle already installed. The handle is also available separately as an optional field upgrade to use in place of the battery door. You can upgrade a LT7x03 with a H7000 handle at any time in the future. The H7000 handle is easy to install and includes a second battery in the handle to double the battery life.
Voice Messages
In addition to the display
prompts and error messages, the RF Terminal has the
ability to audibly prompt and advise the operator
with pre-recorded prompts and error advisories triggered
by the host program. Voice messages are particularly
helpful in poorly lit areas, cold environments, non-English
speaking cultures, and keyless applications (faster
scanning without having to refer to the display).
802.11 Wi-Fi vs. 7000 Series RF Terminals
802.11 Wi-Fi is a spread spectrum radio format that typically operates in the 2.4GHz band and is very popular around the world. However, it only has around 100-300ft range in most applications and requires extensive site surveys plus special wiring and locating of the access points to correctly cover any large area or building. Even the more powerful Wi-Fi 802.11n radios can only cover around 650ft (200m) at best. Our 868MHz 7003 Euro Series RF Terminals use a very powerful radio that can easily cover many hundreds of square meters with a single base station, plus you can expand the coverage even further using relays - in an open area our range is 450 meters! Our radio has 2 times the range of the very best Wi-Fi radios. It is very common for a customer to install just one B557U Base Station in a corner of a large warehouse and still get complete coverage in the entire building.
Extending Range with Relay Station
The B557U Base Station can be converted to operate as a relay with a simple jumper change. Relay Stations give
even greater coverage and can overcome steel structured
wall limitations of separate rooms, buildings or to extend range in very large buildings. Relays are connected
by 422 cable to the B557U Base Station.
