Anyone ever try to connect DS6708 (or any other handheld model) to Metrologic MS7820 auxillary port? I built a customised cable and able to get DS6708 to powered and able to scan barcode, but got error beep tone when transfering data to MS7820. The baud rate & other settings already configured to match on both side. Please share with me if anyone ever try this successfully. Thank you!

I have not connected one of our scanners to the Metrologic, however did come across similar data comms issues with a PSC Magellan. For the PSC scanners I had to set RTS/CTS to option 1.

Looking at the Metrologic guide, it states the following…

The 7820 aux port requires the signals: transmit, receive, RTS & CTS from the auxiliary scanner.
