Keyboard wedge interface with PS/2 connectors: Barcode Scanner with Keyboard Wedge

Interface is plug&play l ike a computer keyboard made for PC.

USB interface is probably the most common barcode scanner interface nowadays, it requires

no software driver like the keyboard wedge interface, and it is of course features plug&play as

well. Another advantage of using the USB interface i s that it is compatible with all notebook

/laptop computers that has USB port on the market.

RS-232C interface is the standard serial interface, Data is sent in ASCII format at RS-232

levels (Most Common handshaking is 9600,N,8,1 for barcode scanning devices with serial

interface.). Serial ports on a PC are RS-232, however the user must have software drivers

to input data from the port. Generally, all POS application software on the market are

supporting RS-232 communication since RS-232 is the most common serial data interface

for POS devices. Simple testing of a RS-232 barcode scanner can be done via the default

Windows Communication Tool - The HyperTerminal (Hyperterm.exe) , simply run the Windows

HyperTerminal, select the COM port where your scanner is connecting with, and assign the

suitable handshaking properties (baud rate, parity, and start/stop bit), scan few barcode label

and see if the scanned data comes out correctly in the HyperTerminal screen.

Wand emulation is designed for old POS systems that were previously using the barcode

light pen (wand) as its barcode reader. The barcode scanner with wand emulation interface

will actually decode and then emulates TTL level signal output as an an old wand device.

OCIA interface is used in many old cash register and POS terminals. The interface is similar

to keyboard wedge.

>You can change factory interface default (KBW) for other type interface. By plug different cable, program scanner and set right interface to exit, then the scanner will be change to another interface. However, you must make sure what cable you need. Refer interface selection for different interface setting along KBW,USB,RS232 and WAND mode .

>You can refer the scanner programming menu V3.6+ or the Utility to configurate the scanner by different interfaces . For the detail setting , please contact the technical support window .

>Refer to Code ID at page52 in the programming menu to set enable, read a barcode label, then you will know what symbology is read.
