Two scanners at the same time

Hi! One of my employees has a hard time using the Symbol LS 2008 because you have to press a button. I have thus installed a Metrologic MS 9520. I like the Symbol better. The MS is plugged via wedge. Can I also have a Symbol scanner (USB) plugged in at the same time?


As long as you are using a PS/2 keyboard you should be fine. The Metrologic Wedge interface won't work unless a Keyboard is plugged in behind it - or at least that was my experience before we switched to all USB devices...

Glenn, thanks. So If I have a wedge taht is working, I could add a second that is USB - did I understand you correctly. Manny "Glenn Adams [MVP - Retail Mgmt]" wrote in message news: snipped-for-privacy@TK2MSFTNGP03.phx.gbl...

Should be no problem - make sure you get the USB version that uses keyboard emulation.
