Connecting and disconnecting barcode readers
Connecting and disconnecting a barcode reader controls the flow of barcode data into
the barcode reader from the camera or barcode scanner. A barcode reader can only receive
barcode data if it is connected.

- Click Connect or Disconnect.
- If you see a confirmation message, click OK.
- Note:
- The camera or barcode scanner might get disconnected if it is powered off or loses network connection. If that happens, RICOH ProcessDirector automatically attempts to reconnect.
- If a user disconnects the barcode reader by clicking Disconnect, they must then click Connect action to restore the connection.
- You might have to manually disconnect the camera or barcode scanner to clean it or reposition it.
