Why Honeywell Eclipse MS5145 scans but the data is not correct?
If your Honeywell Barcode Reader scans but the data is not correct, the unit’s configuration might be incorrect. Make sure that the proper PC type AT, PS2 or XT is selected. Verify the correct country code and data format is selected and adjust the inter-character delay symptom.
Why Honeywell Barcode Reader host is receiving data but the data does not look correct?
If the host is receiving data from your Honeywell Barcode Reader but the data does not look correct, the scanner and host may not be configured for the same interface parameters. Check the scanner and the host are configured for the same interface parameters.
What to do if Honeywell Eclipse MS5145 powers up, but does not scan and/or beep?
If your Honeywell Barcode Reader powers up but doesn't scan or beep, it could be due to the following reasons: * The unit is trying to scan a symbology that is not enabled. UPC/EAN, Code 39, interleaved 2 of 5, Code 93, Code 128 and Codabar are enabled by default. Verify the type of bar code being read has been selected. * The bar code being scanned does not satisfy the configured criteria for character length lock or minimum length. Verify the bar code being scanned falls into the configured criteria. The scanner defaults to a minimum of three-character bar code.
Why Honeywell Eclipse MS5145 Barcode Reader scans, but the data transmitted to the host is incorrect?
If your Honeywell Barcode Reader scans, but the data transmitted to the host is incorrect, it might be because the unit’s data format does not match the host system’s requirements. Verify the unit’s data format matches that required by the host and ensure that the unit is connected to the proper host port.
What to do if Honeywell Barcode Reader scans a bar code, but locks up after the first scan and the red LED stays on?
If your Honeywell Barcode Reader scans a bar code, but locks up after the first scan and the red LED stays on, the unit may be configured to support some form of host handshaking but is not receiving the signal. If the unit is setup to support ACK/NAK, RTS/CTS, XON/XOFF or D/E, verify that the host cable and host are supporting the handshaking properly.
Why Honeywell Eclipse MS5145 Barcode Reader scans the bar code but there is no data?
If your Honeywell Barcode Reader scans the bar code but there is no data, it may be caused by an incorrect unit configuration. Make sure the scanner is configured for the appropriate mode.
Why Honeywell Eclipse MS5145 Barcode Reader beeps at some bar codes but NOT for others of the same bar code symbology?
If your Honeywell Barcode Reader beeps at some bar codes but not for others of the same bar code symbology, there might be several reasons: * The bar code may have been printed incorrectly. Check if it is a check digit/character/or border problem. * The unit is not configured correctly for the type of bar code being scanned. * The minimum symbol length setting does not work with the bar code. Check if the correct minimum symbol length is set.
Why Honeywell Barcode Reader is transmitting each character twice?
If your Honeywell Barcode Reader is transmitting each character twice, the unit’s configuration is not correct. Increase the interscan code delay setting and adjust whether the F0 break is transmitted. It may be necessary to try this in both settings.
Why Honeywell Eclipse MS5145 has no LEDs, beep or laser?
If your Honeywell Barcode Reader has no LEDs, beep, or laser, it could be due to: * No power being supplied to the unit. Check the transformer, the outlet and power strip. Make sure the cable is plugged into the unit. * No power being supplied to the unit from host. Some host systems cannot supply enough current to power the Eclipse. A power supply may be needed.
Why Honeywell Barcode Reader alpha characters show as lower case?
If alpha characters show as lower case on your Honeywell Barcode Reader, the computer is likely in Caps Lock mode. Enable the Caps Lock detect feature of the scanner to detect whether the PC is operating in Caps Lock.
