How do I configure a USB barcode scanner for workshop use?
Summary
The defaults for the Barcode scanners we at Catalyst supply are set only to allow barcodes with a minimum length of 3 characters. A number of Labour codes are 2 characters in length (the technician's initials) so Real Time Labour Code labels do not scan.
