Why does my Honeywell Engine read the bar code incorrectly?
The Honeywell Engine may be reading the bar code incorrectly because it is not programmed for the appropriate terminal interface or to output your bar code data properly. To resolve this, reprogram the scan engine with the correct Plug and Play or Terminal selection, and with the proper symbology selections.
What to do if the bar code is displayed but not entered when using Honeywell Engine?
If the bar code is displayed but not entered when using the Honeywell Engine, you need to program a suffix. Programming a suffix enables the scan engine to output the bar code data plus the key you need, such as 'CR', to enter the data into your application.
How to fix a Honeywell N4680 that won’t read bar codes?
If the Honeywell Engine won’t read your bar code at all, verify that your bar code symbology is enabled. You can also try scanning the sample bar codes or scan 'Resetting the Factory Defaults'.
Why is my Honeywell N4680 Engine having trouble reading symbols?
The Honeywell Engine might be having trouble reading your symbols due to several reasons. Check that the symbols aren’t smeared, rough, scratched, or exhibiting voids, or coated with frost or water droplets on the surface. Also, verify that the symbols are enabled in the scan engine or in the decoder to which the scan engine connects.
How to check if Honeywell Engine has power?
To check if the Honeywell Engine has power: - Ensure the cable is connected properly. - Verify the host system power is on if external power isn’t used.
