Connecting a barcode scanner
The K-DUCER is compatible with RS-232 capable barcode scanners such as Kolver P/N
020050.
All barcode types are supported provided the total length of the barcode is 16 characters.
The barcode scanner should be configured with the following serial parameters and
connected to the CN2 serial port connector:
RS232 – 9600 baud – 8 data bits – 1 stop bit – no parity
CR-LF termination characters are also required on firmware versions v33 and prior.
Note: some scanners require an external power supply when using the RS-232 interface.
See BARCODE MODE for information on the three barcode working modes available and
how to use them.
Connecting Kolver accessories SWBX88, CBS880
To utilize the accessories SWBX88 (switchbox) and CBS880 (socket tray) you’ll need the M-F
serial cable (code 881007) and the KIT KDU ADAPTER WITH SW AND CBS (code 010410).
Connect and secure the adapter to the accessory, then the M-F cable from the adapter to the
CN4 connector on the K-DUCER:
To use the accessories, first select the “On Prog” option from General Settings >
SWBX88/CBS880.
Then, enter the desired SWBX88/CBS880 position in Programs > Other > SWBX88/CBS880 to
