Is the barcode displayed but not entered into the application?
The barcode is displayed on the host device correctly, but you still have to press
a key to enter it (the Enter/Return key or the Tab key, for example).
You need to program a suffix. Programming a suffix enables the image scanner
to output the barcode data plus the key you need (such as “CR”) to enter the
data into your application. Refer to Prefix/Suffix Overview on page 5-1 for fur-
ther information.
Does the image scanner read the barcode incorrectly?
If the image scanner reads a barcode, but the data is not displayed correctly on
the host screen:
The base may not be programmed for the appropriate terminal interface.
For example, you scan “12345” and the host displays “@es%.”
Reprogram the base with the correct Plug and Play or Terminal selection
barcode. See Chapter 1 and Chapter 2.
The base may not be programmed to output your barcode data properly.
For example, you scan “12345” and the host displays “A12345B.”
Reprogram the base with the proper symbology selections. See Chapter 7.
The image scanner won’t read your barcode at all.
1. Scan the sample barcodes in the back of this manual. If the image scanner
reads the sample barcodes, check that your barcode is readable.
Verify that your barcode symbology is enabled (see Chapter 7).
2. If the image scanner still can’t read the sample barcodes, scan All
Symbologies on page 7-2.
