Chapter 10 Keyboard Wedge Interface
Introduction
This chapter describes how to set up a Keyboard Wedge interface with the digital scanner. With this interface,
the digital scanner is connected between the keyboard and host computer, and translates bar code data into
keystrokes. The host computer accepts the keystrokes as if they originated from the keyboard. This mode adds
bar code reading functionality to a system designed for manual keyboard input. Keyboard keystrokes are
simply passed through.
Throughout the programming bar code menus, default values are indicated with asterisks (
*).

NOTE Most computer monitors allow scanning the bar codes directly on the screen. When
scanning from the screen, be sure to set the document magnification to a level where the bar code
can be seen clearly, and bars and/or spaces are not merging.
