One Scanner TWO Pcs

[chrisbee]

Hi - I would like to use one barcode scanner to send the same data to TWO different programs - I guess running on TWO PCs for ease of implementation.

The scan as to be processed in real time - not batch fed.

Application.
I have a stock checking in system belonging to a customer, but want to be able to keep data of the stock so that we can dispute any discrepency.

I have thought about two RF bases and one RF scanner - but have a feeling this might only work on simple scanners, with no scan received check........Any ideas?

Did you try it to see what happens? Does it send data to both PC's?
also contact the Scanner manufacturer and get their imput as to a solution
