t LS 2106 - The LS 2106 scanner is a keyboard “wedge” interface which adds efficient,
reliable bar code reading to your PS/2 or AT/XT terminal. Since entered scan data is
transmitted as keystrokes, no software changes to the host system are necessary. The
scanner contains on-board discrete keyboard wedge communications for connecting
to asynchronous terminals and host systems. It can also accommodate any of the
Synapse™ “Smart Cables” which allows you to connect to a wide variety of host
systems. Some installations require one cable; others require additional adapters
between the keyboard, the PC, and the y-cable.
All of the LS 2100 series scan automatically at the rate of 36 scans per second. For decode

Technical Specifications on page 3-3.
