RHINO-NET™
5
Problem Possible
Solution
The barcode reader (either Laser
or CCD) emits no light source.
Check whether one of the following conditions has
occurred:
- Ensure the right cable is being used, then check
the correctness of cable clamping;
- If connected to COM2/Scanner port, check whether
the right cable is being used. That implies that
power supplied through the serial connector is
compatible with Rhino-NET™ COM port.
- Since COM1 does not allow the powering from
external devices, check the right cable is being
used and that the reader receives external power
(check also power source correctness: refer to
reader user's manual).
The barcode reader does not read
some code symbologies.
The type of barcode readers that can be used with
Rhino-NET™ are "Decoded" readers: therefore, they
require a dedicated configuration. Refer to reader
user's manual for configuration.
The barcode reader emits a laser
beam and a good read beep but
the read barcode is not displayed
by the application running on
Rhino-NET™.
Check if the RS232 parameter settings of the barcode
reader do not correspond to the Rhino-NET™ settings
