Abstract

PURPOSE:To read a bar code without lifting merchandise and to improve operability by making the hand scanner cordless. CONSTITUTION:A bar code read from the merchandise is transmitted through a transmission antenna part 3 to the POS terminal by a radio system. In the POS terminal, the bar code sent from the transmission antenna part 3 of a hand scanner main body 1 by the radio system is received and the processing according to the bar code is performed. Thus, since the cordless of the hand scanner main body 1 can be performed and the hand scanner main body 1 is brought to the merchandise, the bar code can be read without lifting the merchandise and the operability can be improved.

Description

【発明の詳細な説明】 技術分野 本発明はハンドスキャナおよびＰＯＳ端末装置に関する
。DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION TECHNICAL FIELD The present invention relates to hand scanners and POS terminals.

従来技術 従来、ハンドスキャナにおいては、ＰＯ３（販売時点情
