Bar Code Scanner (Option)
The bar code scanner is a fast, easy way to enter data into the system. The bar code scanner allows you
to aim at a printed bar code on paper and scan the information into the system. The printed bar code
information comes from a RIS or HIS system through a network.
The scanner reads the bar code information and enters it into the selected text box. An audible beep
sounds as the system detects and automatically enters the information. Some bar code scanners move
the mouse cursor to the next text box for you. Others require you to manually move the cursor to the next
text box.
