Keyboard mode
Under certain circumstances, when a barcode scanner can't be discovered as a true HID barcode scanner, you can place the inForce device into Keyboard mode to utilize a barcode scanner in keyboard wedge mode.

To use Keyboard mode, select the Keyboard toolbar button at the bottom of the window. (The Keyboard setting will be retained even after you reboot the inForce device.)
