4.1 Connecting the barcode scanner
1 Shut down the system before plugging in the
barcode scanner.
2 Only connect barcode scanners with a
maximum power requirement of 150 mA. (This
maximum value applies even when connecting
more than one barcode scanner.)
3 Observe the safety regulations specified by the
manufacturer of the barcode scanner. The basic
setting for a connected barcode scanner is
"laser emulation."
The data is converted into corresponding character
strings and is transferred to the system via the
PS/2 port.
An audible tone (beep) confirms a valid reading.
You can configure the tone using the
Cherry Tools software: Switch the valid reading
signal on/off or set to continuous.
5 Touchpad (Model MX 8100 only)
The touchpad replaces the mouse. You can move
the mouse cursor with your finger, and select and
drag objects.
Move the mouse cursor
¾ Move your finger across the touchpad.
Double-click
¾ Touch the touchpad twice in quick succession.
6 Configuration
6.1 Header and terminator
The header and terminator identify the start and
finish of the transfer of magnetic card or barcode
data. The header/terminator sequence is inserted
before/after the actual data.
6.2 Physical and virtual configuration
You can configure the keyboard physically or
virtually.
Advantages of physical configuration:
• Once the configuration has been loaded to the
keyboard, it is stored there indefinitely
• The keyboard can be used on other systems
with the appropriate settings
• Functions independently from the operating
system
• No additional software support/drivers required
Advantages of virtual configuration:
• The configuration file is stored on the respective
system
• The configuration is executed in the form of a
software macro
• Additional functionality
