Hi all ! I've searched this forum and found a lot of threads on barcode reading. I do understand that a barcode reader is just an IO device like a keyboard BUT I have questions on the web development itself. For your information, I work with wireless guns in some case, and wired one in some others.

Here are my concerns :

There will be more than one gun per PC and some PC will have up to 6 guns. So some of the operators will not have access to a screen, therefore how will we show error messages ? Is it possible to have different "beeps" on a gun to signal different error types ?

Since there will be more than one gun per PC and we'll be using web based apps, how will we handle the data submission (if more than one gun tries to submit data at the same time) ? I ask because I'm not really familliar with those kind of apps (multi user on the same client).

Hope someone can give me some hints...
