We used OEM barcode reader (IS4120-41 scanner decode engine) from Metrologic Instruments, Inc.. The output of this reader is the barcode ASCII format transmitted across an RS232 line. We read this with the handy board's RS232 serial port. You can (...) (27 years ago, 19-Feb-98, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

I'm just wondering, is the "charge" LED supposed to come on on the I/C board when you're running code on the Handy-Board? I don't think it should, but I'm not sure. Thanks, Rob O' Neill (27 years ago, 17-Feb-98, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
