How to set up a barcode scanner?
18.02.2023 14:28How do I connect the barcode scanner?
Most scanners don't require additional drivers or software — plug it in via USB and the scanner works.
But there are a few recommendations:
Once the scanner is connected, check that it works — open the Notepad application and scan the item's barcode there. See if all the numbers are read. If so, you can get to work.
Some scanners may be programmed «from the factory» not as you need — they can read another type of barcode (not EAN13), or after scanning do not perform the additional function of the button Enter, which confirms the entry of a barcode, which is very convenient when selling goods.
All settings of the scanner are included, in the manual. To configure the scanner for the desired mode of operation, you must scan the barcodes in the instructions for configuring the scanner in sequence.
If you need assistance in connecting the scanner or configuring the barcode scanner prefix, please contact the technical support team at Torgsoft. Specialists will remotely help you solve this problem.
