Using an External Keyboard
You can use many standard USB compatible keyboards. Datalogic
recommends the use of a sealed/ruggedized key-board:
• Sealed/rugged keyboards are available from Datalogic
including: full sized QWERTY, ABCD, or mini QWERTY USB
keyboards
• The keyboard attaches to one of the two USB ports on the
Rhino. It is automatically detected and prepared for use.
For information on installing the rugged keyboard and its mount,
see the Rhino II Installation manual.
Using a Barcode Scanner
Your can use either a USB or serial scanner with the Rhino II
computer. Be sure to order your scanner with the ap-propriate
cable.
Connecting a USB Scanner
1. Remove the cable compartment cover plate.
2. Plug the cable into one of the USB ports. Depending on the
scanner you are attaching, you may hear a series of beeps and
the Good Read light may flash.
3. Choose a rubber plug for the scanner cable with the appropriate
sized hole. Run the cable through the hole, then insert the plug
into a slot on the terminal.
4. If desired, use a nylon tie-wrap to secure the cable to the post
inside the cable compartment. Replace the cable compartment
cover
