Keyboard IN Reports

The host operating system will interpret Keyboard IN Reports from the Imager as if the user were typing keyboard text. The host operating system sends keystrokes to the current application. This is commonly called a Keyboard Wedge configuration.

There is one type of Keyboard Report used:

Report Type	Data Content
Keyboard IN (Imager to host)	Symbol data; No Reads; Service messages

Note: If Keyboard IN Reports is enabled, and Microscan HID IN Reports is disabled, the read cycle must be Continuous Read 1 Output, because there will be no External Trigger or Serial Trigger. It is not possible to send commands to the Imager as Keyboard OUT Reports. To send commands to the Imager via USB, the host application must establish a connection with the Imager and send Microscan HID OUT Reports.
