Cipherlab 8001 rechargable inventory scanner pos
This is a brand new, unused, unopened cipher lab 8001-ccd physical inventory scanner (portable data terminal or pdt) for use with point of sale (pos) software such as quick books point of sale versions 4,5, 6, 7, 8 and 9. It is a wireless unit. This is also the Lithium-Ion rechargeable unit with recharging communication with USB connection.
Guaranteed to work with QB POS via direct upload and Microsoft POS and RMS (Retail Management Suite) via text file import/export routine. Includes battery powered (2 Lithium Ion AAA batteries included) portable scanner, usb connector, charging cradle and install CD. This is used for physical inventory scanning for importing into POS software. Also works with 98, XP, Vista and W7. Vista and W7 use drivers direct from cipherlab or Intuit - the key is getting the "308 USB-UART" driver - try http://us.cipherlab.com/document.asp?id=1450 for the USB_UART COM Controller.
Installation Instructions (general for QBPOS):
In general, bring up QB POS first. Click File > Hardware Setup Wizard (or something similar). Then click on Physical Inventory Scanner (or in some versions Portable Data Terminal). Follow the directions for the rest of the setup. Do not install the driver that comes with the scanner as QuickBooks POS has an embedded driver for this product. You may need to go through the COM ports drop-down list and try each one (3 or 4 of them) until you find the one the PC registered for the device.
This should work with Microsoft RMS Store Operations and Microsoft POS as a file upload provided by this tool. Carolina IT and POS can assist with the installation as a billable support call. You would install the driver on the CD and/or search for an OPOS driver if available. I have had success with these products by importing a text file that the scanner creates.
