A customer of ours had some
challenges with hand barcode scanners and the NumLock key.
Theirs tended to turn the NumLock key off, which annoyed the operators
who were also doing keypad numeric entry.
I bet they were NOT using Sun Type 7 keyboards.
This was discussed at length previously, you might be able to search
through the archives and find the conversation.
What I have found is that the Symbol Scanner works well with the Sun
Type 7
keyboard. Any other brand will turn the num-lock off on every scan
(tried Apple, Dell, Microsoft, IBM)
I seem to recall there was some theory that we could program the
scanner to send a different country code to prevent this, but since I
use all Sun Type 7 keyboards I never investigated any further.
