Hello,
I am curious to know if there is an easy way to use a barcode scanner with a Modicon plc. I have been doing a ton of research and cant really find my answer.
The PLC uses a Modbus connection and I am not sure what I am supposed use to communicate between the scanner and the PLC.
Do I need to use a gateway of some sort to have an rs232 barcode scanner communicate with a Modbus plc? Is there any barcode scanners that have Modbus functionality?
Thanks
