Why my POS-X Barcode Reader has no LEDs, beep or laser?
If your POS-X Barcode Reader has no LEDs, doesn't beep, and the laser isn't working, the issue might be a lack of power. First, check the transformer, the outlet, and any power strips. Ensure the cable is securely plugged into the unit. Also, some host systems might not supply enough power; in this case, you may need an additional power supply.
What to do if POS-X EVO Laser Barcode Reader scans, but the data transmitted to the host is incorrect?
If your POS-X Barcode Reader scans, but the data transmitted to the host is incorrect, verify that the unit’s data format matches what the host system requires. Also, ensure that the unit is connected to the correct host port.
Why POS-X Barcode Reader powers up, but does not scan and/or beep?
If your POS-X Barcode Reader powers up but doesn't scan or beep, it might be trying to scan a symbology that isn't enabled. UPC/EAN, Code 39, Interleaved 2 of 5, Code 93, Code 128, and Codabar are enabled by default, so verify that the barcode type you're trying to read is selected. Also, the barcode might not meet the configured criteria for character length lock or minimum length. The scanner defaults to a minimum of three characters, so ensure the barcode meets this requirement.
What to do if POS-X Barcode Reader scans but the data is not correct?
If the POS-X Barcode Reader scans, but the data is not correct, the unit’s configuration might be incorrect. Ensure that the proper PC type (AT, PS2, or XT) is selected. Verify the correct country code and data format are selected. Also, adjust the inter-character delay symptom.
Why POS-X EVO Laser scans a bar code, but locks up after the first scan?
If your POS-X Barcode Reader scans a barcode, but locks up after the first scan and the red LED stays on, it may be configured to support host handshaking but isn't receiving the signal. If the unit is set up for ACK/NAK, RTS/CTS, XON/XOFF, or D/E, verify that the host cable and the host are properly supporting the handshaking.
Why POS-X EVO Laser scans the bar code but there is no data?
If your POS-X Barcode Reader scans the barcode but there is no data, the unit’s configuration might be incorrect. Make sure the scanner is configured for the appropriate mode.
Why POS-X EVO Laser Barcode Reader beeps at some bar codes but NOT for others of the same bar code symbology?
If your POS-X Barcode Reader beeps for some barcodes but not others of the same symbology, the barcode may have been printed incorrectly; check for check digit/character or border problems. Also, check if the correct minimum symbol length is set.
What to do if POS-X Barcode Reader powers up, but does not beep?
If your POS-X Barcode Reader powers up but doesn't beep, the beeper might be disabled, or no tone has been selected. Enable the beeper and select a tone.
Why POS-X EVO Laser Barcode Reader is transmitting each character twice?
If the POS-X Barcode Reader is transmitting each character twice, the unit’s configuration is likely incorrect. Try increasing the interscan code delay setting and adjust whether the F0 break is transmitted; try this in both settings if necessary.
Why POS-X EVO Laser Barcode Reader scans, communicates and beeps twice?
If your POS-X Barcode Reader scans, communicates, and beeps twice, the same symbol timeout is probably set too short. Adjust the same symbol timeout for a longer time.
