Hi Heidi, We were never able to resolve the issue with the scanners. Instead, we ended up using carts with laptops and scanners on them. It was a pretty painless process using that method. I'm happy to share more information with you, if you would like. Thanks!

If at all possible, we would like to use the portable barcode scanners that the library already owns. Our problem is with the scanners themselves, Falcon PT40, and we are wondering if anyone might know how to configure the scanner to dump the barcodes in a text file. Right now, when we scan a barcode, it comes with extra characters and the barcodes are in one continuous line in the file. Thanks!
