ABSTRACT:
A portable device (10) for data collection by an operator (11) includes a data entry unit (12) for entry of data other than by scanning and a module (14) having a display (50) for display of information and a scanner (51) or other auto-identification device for data collection. Data entry unit (12) operates both when carried by hand and while carried on operator (11) other than by hand. Module (14) is detachably carried by data entry unit (12) and operates both while module (14) is carried by data entry unit (12) and while detached therefrom. Data entry unit (12) includes a module carrier (70) for adjustably, detachably carrying display/scanner module (14). Because module (14) includes both a display and scanner, both are always within the line of sight of operator (11), greatly facilitating use of device (10). Because data entry unit (12) includes the remaining components, module (14) is lightweight and may be used for long periods without fatigue.
