This past August, Code Corporation launched the disinfectant ready CR7010 battery backup case. Designed for the mobile healthcare workforce, the case doubles the battery life of iPhones and allows for full clinical sanitization protocols without causing device damage.

Now, the updated CR7020 protective case offers several improvements over the CR7010, notably its compatibility with the latest iPhone models and sizes.

Unlike most consumer-grade cases, the CR7000 series protective cases hold iPhones in a full enclosure for maximum protection. For most healthcare and other industry segments around the world such as retail and logistics, mobile scanning is extremely convenient, familiar for users, and helps improve patientcare and customer service alike.

Jana Buchanan, Senior Product Manager of Hardware for Code Corporation, had additional comments. ”We are excited about expanding our mobile device product line to include options for additional iPhone sizes.  This new product line allows us to support our customers with more options, more sizes, more flexibility.”

Mobile device barcode scanning delivers expanded efficiency for point-of-care, point-of-sale and logistics teams and extending the durability and longevity of a device helps cut costs and enhance productivity. Is there a downside to mobility?

Mobile devices can create unintended risks for patients, customers, and employees. Because mobile devices are handled by multiple employees to scan and manage sales and inventory, they also need to be able to withstand disinfection protocols and occasional drops. The CR7020 provides protection for these and other scenarios, keeping employees and devices safe.

The CR7020 case, like previous models, offers bi-directional data pass-through and an easily swappable, external battery power that more than doubles the life of an iPhone. Its flexible battery charging system includes multiple workspace preset options, which can be configured exactly how you need.

At a glance, the case indicates the battery’s charge status. In busy environments, the last thing you need is a team member guessing how much charge is left in a device. This, and many other features, make the CR7020 case a true standout for iPhone productivity.

CR7020 Protective Case Features

• Bi-directional data pass-through
• 5 or 10-bay battery chargers with configurations for any workspace
• BatteryTrak™ application provides real-time battery health, deployment dates, cycle counts, and serial numbers for individual case monitoring
• Hot-swappable 2,700 mAh external battery
• Dragontrail™ screen protector
• Secure and sealed, protects against damage as well as water and debris
• CodeShield® Level 3 PVC-Free disinfectant-ready plastics
• Compatible with iPhone 8 and iPhone SE (2020)
• Code Complete service and extended warranty plans
• Smart battery shows battery health with a visible fuel gauge
• With iPhone, withstands multiple drops of 4’ (1.2 meters) to concrete

What is Line Busting?

Line busting is the elimination of long lines and wait times in a retail environment.

A commonly used retail industry term for rush hour coffee shops, popular restaurants with to-go orders, and busy stores in a holiday season, line busting in this context is referring to the point of sale technology utilized to keep customers happy.

Mobile checkout solutions from our partners at Epson are a major contributor to any retailer’s line busting efforts.

Line Busting Checkout Solutions for Retailers of All Shapes and Sizes

Keep customers happy by getting them in and out, quick. Let’s start with the receipt printing technology behind the counter.

The Epson TM-m30 solution is built for point of sale applications, so you’ll be able to use it with tablets and smartphones alike. This receipt printer looks sleek on any counter, connected to the point of sale system of your choice. Printing 3-inch receipts has never been easier. Keep lines moving and watch as guests and customers return for repeat business. Beyond the countertop, further line busting efforts can be enacted with a little mobility and ingenuity.

The Epson TM-P60 receipt printer also pairs seamlessly with mobile devices in any retail environment. This compact, portable printer is equally lightweight and durable. Employees can comfortably carry the TM-P60 directly to customers in a long line, take their order, and print the receipt on the spot. In addition to printers and snappy POS software, here are a few more considerations to improve wait times.

Freedom of Movement for Employees

A mobile printer is not the only tool at an employees’ disposal for line busting efforts. Being able to move freely in the store environment enables staff to answer customer questions on the spot. Tablets and mobile devices can be used to quickly check inventory or order items for pickup at a later date (or delivery to a home address). The POS software and cloud connectivity, as well as the ability to pair with any device are essential.

Avoid Multiple POS Systems

If you have a checkout process on a tablet, inventory databases on smartphones, and a printer stationed back at the counter, you can see where this makes long lines even more cumbersome. Don’t make customer heads spin. Consider a single secure cloud POS system (Epson has many all-in-one POS solutions).

Is Line Busting for Everyone?

The most important aspect to a successful retail environment is understanding the customer journey. Line busting solutions are easier said than done and may not be the best experience in every environment. Customer satisfaction isn’t solely based on wait times – the entire buying experience should be considered.

In collaboration with Barcodes, Inc. and Zebra, VAXSYS Technologies, Inc. introduced the COVID-19 Vaccination Enrollment and Verification System. The System provides a current record of COVID-19 vaccinations quickly, accurately and securely.

This allows vaccination status to be verified, whenever and wherever required. It’s simple and anonymous.

To verify vaccination status, download the mobile app to any Android handheld device with 2D barcode reading capability. The application decrypts the barcode on the VAXSYS Card to generate an anonymous, immediate, level-1 proof of COVID-19 vaccination, without requiring any additional personal, biographic or biometric information from the holder.

Enrollment is mobile, accurate, and paper-free. Organizations can print and issue durable, legible vaccine credentials on secure plastic VAXSYS Cards that contain an encrypted, fraud-resistant 2D barcode.

The System can be operated in stand-alone mode, or integrated into a user database at the option of the user.

“Because all Barcodes, Inc./VAXSYS System components are mobile, the enrollment and card printing can quickly be set up anywhere in any size of facility, even in a vehicle; but can also be readily expanded to handle all those being vaccinated.”

Moshe Meppen, CEO of VAXSYS Technologies, Inc.

The complete Barcodes, Inc./VAXSYS System, including mobile computers containing barcode scanners, card printers, cards, and all necessary software, can be configured to support any specific user requirements, including those of businesses, universities, sports venues, and all other places with public access. The vaccination card can be printed with the name or logo of the business, university or sports team as well.

The System provides a low-cost, paperless, and contact-free enrollment at COVID-19 vaccination centers. With the help of the mobile app, anonymous screening then allows businesses and other entities to safely reopen much sooner.

“We are excited to partner with VAXSYS Technologies to assist in providing a credential solution that supplies consumers with a more durable, portable, and secure vaccination card. With mandates developing across the country, and vaccine credentials becoming more and more required for places such as sports, restaurants, concert venues, schools, universities, and colleges, the need for a more efficient solution has never been more evident. As North America’s leading provider of barcode, mobile computing, and RFID solutions, we are well equipped to help implement this vital solution.”

Dan Nettesheim, Chief Executive Officer of Barcodes, Inc.

Back to Normal with Simple, Secure Vaccination Enrollment

Based in Calabasas, California, VAXSYS Technologies was founded by biometric and identification industry professionals, dedicated to helping society use simple and secure vaccination enrollment and screening technologies to help return us back to normal.

By combining best-in-class ID scanning and verification capabilities, with our collective experience servicing large and complex government entities, VAXSYS provides a full suite of applications that enable the end-to-end usage of vaccination data by vaccinators, and by the general public who need to screen people entering buildings or businesses.
