PDA data collector is known as palm computer, but also the inventory machine, hand-held terminal equipment. PDA is different from ordinary scanning guns in that pda has Android and CE operating systems to choose from. For the convenience of enterprise management, Hongxing Yongli Company also supports PDA secondary development services! PDAs are also used to distinguish between industrial grade and commercial grade. It is suggested that customers communicate clearly with us when purchasing branches to avoid unnecessary troubles.

Data Collectors-Android Systems

The main advantage of Android is its open source, and the development platform allows any mobile terminal manufacturer to join the Android. The second is that the Android system has rich hardware. Due to the openness of the Android, many manufacturers will launch a variety of products with various functions and characteristics. The differences and characteristics in functions will not affect data synchronization and even software compatibility. The third is to facilitate development, android provide third-party developers with a very broad and free environment, which will not be hindered by various rules and regulations. Mainly suitable for JAVA language PDA.

Advantages: The system is mature, has the operation of supporting safety, and has excellent traffic performance. There are many secondary development resources, and the development intention is rich in support for various business functions, and has a higher degree of fit with industrial applications, such as touch screen technology, 3G communication technology, GPS positioning technology, stable wireless communication technology, multimedia playback and acquisition technology Wait. At the same time with third-party hardware such as scanning head, RFID docking, based on the system driver can be very good to the hardware performance to the best. The industrial chain is mature and the continuity of the later evolution is good. The use of open source code, low development costs.

Disadvantages: The application software is complicated, the compatibility test between the software is less, and the stability will be affected after installing too much software. In the actual use process, the software installation needs to be restricted, and the installation program is compatible with the stability test to ensure the stability. However, because the PDA application in the express delivery industry is relatively simple in function and low in software complexity, it is easy to be stable.

Data Collector-CE System

The Windows CE operating system is a member of the Windows family, designed specifically for the system environment used by handheld computers (HPCs) and embedded devices. Such an operating system would enable complete mobile technology to work in integration with existing Windows desktop technology. If it is used for the development of CE system, this type of software generally uses the PDA of wince operating system.

The WinCE PDA integrates a barcode scanning device with a data terminal and has a terminal computer device that can be operated offline on a battery. With real-time acquisition, automatic storage, instant display, instant feedback, automatic processing, automatic transmission and other functions. It provides a guarantee for the authenticity, validity, real-time and availability of field data. It has the characteristics of integrity, mobility, small size, light weight, high performance, and suitable for handheld. It is mainly used in industrial data acquisition.

Advantages: good closure, good security, mature system, the current use of industry business software for a long time, more stable, easier to integrate with the Windows system.

Disadvantages: The industrial chain is broken, subsequent chip manufacturers will no longer ship, and there is no plan for after-sales or replacement of equipment using WinCE system; Poor support for voice function, resulting in inability to carry out voice communication; Poor support for wireless communication technologies such as 3G, WIFI, Bluetooth, etc., insufficient communication bandwidth, resulting in ineffective real-time communication of information; Can't support AGPS function, can't quickly and accurately locate.

Data Collector Android System VS CE System Comparison

windows ce system is based on the palmtop type of electronic equipment operating system, it seems to be designed for a small mobile computer, and the Android operating system is given to the mobile phone operating system, it is more like a wireless communication function of the small mobile computer and design. At present, in addition to the functions of computers, handheld devices used in the express and logistics industries also need powerful mobile communication functions to extend computer functions to every corner of the outdoors. From the application maturity of the operating system and Pudu, Android is the operating system with the highest market share and the most development support in the current smart phone system.

Under normal circumstances, there will be no CE software switching to Android software, because switching to Android system will cost a lot to do hardware platform adaptation, software modification, user interface redesign and so on, and it will not bring any benefits.

CE's collector interface standard, there is no gorgeous text icon, the operation mode is relatively backward, this is Microsoft's consistent style. However, some companies that need to develop software based on the CE operating system PDA are used to such boring operations. Because it brings fast and cumbersome computing power can greatly reduce the working time of the staff, to achieve more efficient completion of the work.

For the current market, Android machines have brought a wave of use, with multi-element operation, strong adaptability and usability. However, an inevitable serious problem is that the PDA of Android operating system will have the problem of card machine when it is used for a long time. This is a common problem of all Android machines. No matter what kind of brand it is, as long as it is a PDA of Android operating system, it will definitely get card after a long time, and there will be problems such as slow response speed and delayed screen operation.

However, this does not reduce people's enthusiasm for Android machines. In any case, the market demand will not stop because of a little flaw. Just like Android and CE, both operating systems have their own advantages and fixed customers.

Data collector Android system and CE system which is easy to use?

According to the pda data sold by Hongxing Yongli, the purchase of PDA with Android operating system or PDA with WinCE operating system is almost 50-50, mainly depending on the customer's choice and some changes to be made by the customer's company in the future. The barcode data collector is selected according to its own needs.
