Hi all.
This is my first post and first of all let me apologize for my english ...
I have a big (for me) problem with the scanner codes in HP3070 system:
In one of the testers HP3070 i have broken barcode scanner.
Tester does not have a PS / 2, (the old keyboard is connected to port HP-HIL) and the scanner was connected to the SCSI/RS-232 terminal .
My question is:
Is there a chance to connect an ordinary RS-232 scanner (with its own power supply) directly to a seu-4470 ( I have 4 free ports) , or the SCSI/rs-232 terminal (currently all ports free ) ? Is this possible?
I have a lot of handheld scanners with RS232 port (DB9 connector ). How to configure the software to work with them? How to do the right cable?
Please help because I recently began working with the hp3070 and I'm still a little green.
I would be very grateful for any help.
Regards.

if you need to add to unix SCSI expansion box, of course this is possible - you will probably need RJ45 to DB9 connector (as most barcode connector are RJ45) and you will need to assign the port inside the testplan.
below is an example of barcode readers assigned to UX port(the ones commented with a !) and also example assigned to PC (using /dev/com/X)
you will need to read the manual for assigning a label (like @BCR1 below) to a device file, /dev/ttym04 (which is the serial expansion port 4 )
so yes its possible - but you need to match DB9 to RJ45 cable to a barcode reader - also consider to buy a PC controller.........
!assign @Bcr1,Bcr_Error to "/dev/ttym04"
!assign @Bcr2,Bcr_Error to "/dev/ttym05"
assign @Bcr1,Bcr_Error to "/dev/com/7"!
assign @Bcr2,Bcr_Error to "/dev/com/8"!digi port 2
timeout @Bcr1, 3 ! time out after barcode read
timeout @Bcr2, 3 ! time out after barcode read
control @Bcr1,3;oti("4275") !set up port
control @Bcr2,3;oti("4275") !set up port
