PERCON INTRODUCES PERCON PAL
COMPLETE PORTABLE APPLICATIONS LIBRARY

EUGENE, OR--In a continuing effort to meet the needs of their customers,
Percon, Inc., a leading manufacturer of bar code reading equipment, is
announcing the Percon Portable Applications Library (PAL). Percon PAL is a
collection of seven complete application programs for use with the Percon
PT2000, PocketReader, and TopGun portable data collection terminals.
Percon PAL is provided FREE with every Percon portable collection device
purchase.

As of May 1, one of the programs, PALPRO, is pre-installed into every
Percon portable. PALPRO can be used immediately by turning on the Percon
portable, selecting the program, and scanning.

PAL programs are completely self-contained, giving users the flexibility to
customize portables for specific purposes without using the Percon Program
Generator (PPG). User prompts can be quickly and easily changed on the
portable terminal. Percon PAL can be installed and used in either DOS or
Windows 3.1 or higher.

Data transfer utilities and programming utilities are included with the
seven applications:

** ASSETPRO can be used to track assets (furniture, phones, computers,
electronic equipment, etc.) by entering an identification code for a
location, collecting all the asset I.D.s at the location, and entering an
identification code for a different location.

** INVPRO gives users a choice of one prompt or two to track inventory. One
prompt enables users to scan or enter an I.D. number or description for
each single item. Two prompts allows users to scan or enter an item I.D.
and the quantity of that item (how many are in stock).

** TRACKPRO is used to record check-in and check-out of articles (supplies,
books, files, tools, equipment, etc.) at one or more locations. An
optional date/time stamp records exactly when each item is taken or
returned.

** PALPRO combines ASSETPRO, INVPRO and TRACKPRO into a single, convenient
program so users can switch from one application to another without having
to upload each application when needed. PALPRO is loaded into each
portable at the factory.

** DESCRIPT is another useful program for tracking inventory. Item and
description files can be created and loaded in advance. Users can also add
to files or create them from scratch in the portable as inventory data is
collected.

** INVMODEM lets you send the data collected by INVPRO to a computer over a
modem.

** TIMESTMP is a simple item-tracking program that records the date and
time that each item is entered into the portable.

The Percon PAL applications can recognize the following bar code
symbologies: Codabar, Code 39, Code 128, Interleaved 2 of 5, and UPC/EAN.
Percon PAL runs on an IBM PC or PS/2 or compatible computer (286) or
higher). The PAL files use just over a megabyte of hard disk space.
