Supported Interfaces
The LS2208 scanner supports connection to the following host interfaces:
• USB. The scanner automatically detects a USB host and uses the default setting (HID keyboard
interface type). If the default does not meet your requirements, scan another USB host bar code on page
3-5.
• Standard RS-232. The scanner automatically detects an RS-232 host and uses the default setting
(standard RS-232). If the default does not meet your requirements, scan another RS-232 host bar code
on page 4-6.
• IBM 468X/469X. Scanners branded with a silver logo must use auto-host detect cables,
and automatically detect an IBM host, but there is no default setting. Select a Port Address on page 5-4
for the appropriate port.
Scanners branded with a black logo must use a standard IBM cable. Select a Port Address
on page 5-4 for the appropriate port.
• Keyboard wedge. Scanners branded with a silver logo using auto-host detect cables
automatically detect a keyboard wedge host and use the default setting (IBM PC/AT & IBM PC
Compatibles). If the default does not meet your requirements, scan the IBM AT Notebook bar code on
page 6-4. The host interprets scanned data as keystrokes.
Scanners using a standard keyboard wedge cable must select a keyboard wedge host on page 6-4.
Scanners branded with a black logo do not auto-host detect and must select a keyboard
wedge host on page 6-4.
