+ | ===== Troubleshooting ===== | ||
+ | |||
+ | ==== Beeps 2 Times, But isn't Scanning to Notepad ==== | ||
+ | |||
+ | If this is a wireless scanner and the scanner only beeps 2 times, but isn't scanning to notepad or a command prompt, this is an indication that there is something wrong with the communication between the scanner and it's cradle. This can even happen with a new scanner right out of the box. | ||
+ | To correct this issue you must follow this process to unlink the scanner from the cradle and then link it again. | ||
+ | - Press and hold the button on the base for more than 5 seconds, | ||
+ | - Scan the Unlink bar code, \\ | ||
+ | {{ : | ||
+ | or click here for a printable copy. {{ : | ||
+ | The barcode scanner will make a series of beeps. \\ | ||
+ | - Wait several seconds. | ||
+ | - Now press the trigger to wake up the handheld and place it back into the base. | ||
+ | - Again it will make a series of beeps to let you know it has been programmed. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Now you will be able to follow the instructions at the top of the page to program the Ctrl+B prefix for the scanner to function correctly with System Five. | ||
+ | |||
+ | |||
+ | ==== Scanner Works but no Ctrl+B Prefix ==== \\ | ||
+ | |||
+ | This is assuming you have already gone through the programming steps above, but still isn't showing the Ctrl+B prefix in a command prompt.\\ | ||
+ | There is an issue with Windows 10 where the new command prompt doesn' | ||
+ | |||
+ | 1. Run the Command Prompt: Press **WIN+R** to bring up the Run dialogue box, type **CMD** and press OK. | ||
+ | |||
+ | {{ : | ||
+ | |||
+ | 2. Right-click on the Command Prompt Icon, and select **Properties** from the menu. | ||
+ | |||
+ | {{ : | ||
+ | |||
+ | 3. Place a check mark in the box labelled "**Use legacy console**" | ||
+ | |||
+ | {{ : | ||
+ | |||
+ | 4. Close the command prompt and re-open it in normal mode. | ||
+ | |||
+ | After following these steps, scanning a barcode into the Windows 10 Command Prompt will now mimic the behavior of previous version of Windows Command Prompt: The barcode will be scanned showing the ^B prefix, followed by the barcode number and a Carriage Return. The Command Prompt will no longer enter 'Mark Mode', and will allow for further barcode scanning or other commands to be entered. | ||
