A gauge is provided for measuring the thickness of roofing shingles and vinyl siding. The gauge includes a main body having at least two elongated slots, one slot functioning to receive and measure the thickness of roofing shingles and the other slot functioning to receive and measure the thickness of vinyl siding. Both slots are open from a respective edge of the main body and include a width that progressively decreases from the open edge to a terminating point in the slot.

The present multi-media subscriber station has control unit and a plurality of communication devices. Each communication device includes speed dial controls which, when activated but a user, provide for establishing a communication session to a communication end point associated with the speed dial control. Each speed dial control is associated with a programmable image display on which an image associated with the communication end point may be displayed.

In a wireless network having a plurality of nodes which roam about the network, a method for routing data packets among the nodes whereby each of the nodes carries out the steps of maintaining a list of nodes which are reachable through the node based on advertisements received from other nodes; advertising to other nodes the list of nodes which are reachable through the node; and when receiving a data packet for which the node is not the ultimate destination, forwarding the data packet towards the ultimate destination based on the list of nodes.

A portable hand held bar code dataform reader is disclosed. The reader includes a main body portion configured to be held in an operator's hand and a bar code reader module portion rotatably secured to the main body portion. The bar code reader module portion is selectively rotated by the operator to facilitate reading bar code dataforms which are at varying orientations and heights with respect to the operator. An actuation switch is located on a surface facing the operator and is position to be actuated by the thumb of the hand holding the reader.

Hand held portable bar code dataform reader having a rotatable reader

A hand held dataform reader for reading 1D and 2D bar codes and matrix dataforms is disclosed. The dataform reader includes a dataform reader module having a laser bar code dataform reading assembly, for reading 1D bar codes, and an imaging dataform reading assembly, for reading 2D bar codes and matrix codes. The dataform reader module further includes selection and control circuitry for energizing a selected one of the reading assemblies. In operation, the laser reading assembly is energized first. If the target dataform is a 1D bar code, a decodable signal will be generated and decoding circuitry will decode the target dataform. If a decodable signal is not generated by the laser reading assembly, the selection and control circuitry turns off the laser reading assembly and energizes the imaging dataform reading assembly. If the target dataform is a 2D bar code or matrix dataform, the imaging dataform reading assembly will generate a decodable composite video signal representing the image of the dataform. If the video signal is decodable, the decoding circuitry will decode the target dataform.

A bar code dataform reader. The reader includes a housing defining an interior region and supporting an exit window. A bar code dataform reading assembly is mounted on a rotatable support within the housing interior region. The reader further includes support rotating structure coupled to the support to facilitate external rotation of the support to a selected one of a plurality of positions. The reading assembly is selectively actuatable to read a bar code dataform and includes a light source component mounted on the support such that, for each of the plurality of support positions, a light beam emitted by the light source component exits the housing through the exit window in a different direction with respect to the housing.

A configurable electronic work slate unit includes a customizable array of data devices and input/output devices which are selectively integrated in a compact and highly ergonomic structure. Increased operator productivity is accomplished by use of several possible user interface media including a multi-function display and input/output unit including a digitizer, position sensitive screen, and video display panel. Selectively integratable user interface components include a bar code scanner, RF modulator for radio frequency communication, modem, audio input/output, as well as the multi-purpose display. All components are integrated by use of a handle unit or module docking assembly which can house a battery as well as removable modules in a manner so as to minimize operator fatigue and discomfort, as well as enhance productivity. Configuration, reconfiguration and updating of work slate units by choice and selection of removable modules, from a variety of different types of modules, is enhanced by utilization of standardized interfaces which are intercoupled to a common signal bus. The bus configuration in combination with a bus controller functions as an intelligent bus capable of identifying types of removable modules and configuring communication protocols for operation with different types of removable modules.
