Initial Troubleshooting Steps for VIN and Coupon Scanners:

  • ENSURE CAPS LOCK IS OFF - This CAPs lock key on the keyboard is on the left side of the keyboard. CAPS lock causes changes in the case of what is being scanned.

  • DISCONNECT FROM POWER - Completely disconnect the scanner from its power source.

    • If it is directly wired to a computer, disconnect the USB cable.

    • If there is a scanner base, disconnect the base from power.

After 5-10 seconds, reconnect the scanner or the scanner base to power.

  • MOVE PORTS - To ensure the USB port is functioning properly, the scanner/base USB input can be moved between ports for testing.

Test Scan in Notepad:

  1. Navigate to the Windows Start Menu:
    Windows 11 Start Icon: Located in either the bottom center or bottom right of the screen
