Question about Metrologic Instruments MS5145 Handheld
We recently implemented barcode scanning. About 30% of the scanners do not work. They lock-up the keyboard and often the computer will not boot. The light on the scanner is on. When a barcode is placed underneath it, it beeps once. Pushing the button does nothing. Swapping scanner heads instantly fixes the problem (even if the computer is on and the keyboard is locked up). Are all of these scanners faulty or do they need to be reconfigured?
Are you using usb keyboards if so set the scanners to stand alone keyboard wedge you will find this in the manual. if this is not the case it could be that the scanner is set for a different keyboard type just set the scanner for keyboard wedge emulation. hope this helps Pete

I found a solution. The scanners needed to be reset to default. (via the manual) Thx anyway. Didn't know they could be configured for use without a kboard... That definately bit me once.
