Can the serial port on a SLC503 be used to trigger and recieve barcode data? Are there any examples out there? Thanks

Usually in my experience the serial port is used to catch the data from the scanner. I guess that you could command the ASCII port to enable the scan, but this is not the way that I would do it. I would just use the ASCII port for reading and writing, and use a P/E to discretely enable the scan for a pre-determined time.
Lots of examples. Look in the AB knowlegebase.
There is a Control-logix example (Not an SLC but similar) on the RS5000CD as well.
