Keyboard Wedge Interface

Introduction

This chapter covers Keyboard Wedge interface information for setting up your scanner. This interface type is used to attach the scanner between the keyboard and host computer. The scanner translates the bar code data into keystrokes. The host computer accepts the keystrokes as if they originate from the keyboard.

This mode of operation allows adding bar code reading functionality to a system designed for manual keyboard input. In this mode the keyboard keystrokes are simply passed through.

Throughout the programming bar code menus, default values are indicated with asterisks (*).
