Helios question

BlueEzs007 · 01-14-2006, 10:57 PM

I just upgraded to Helios Version 11.4 and I also just networked a second computer and also hooked my timer system to the computers. Wheeeeeeee
My question is.......when the beds are full how does the waiting list work?? Do I have to wait till someone comes out of the bed to put the next person waiting in the computer. This would be a nightmare in about three more weeks when sweason gets here. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I have a quesiton........
What other barcode scanners and fingerprint scanners are capatable to Helios, than the ones that they sale?

Any barcode scanner that goes through your keyboard will work. Not sure about the fingerprint scanners.

Only the fingerprint device supplied by Helios will work ...

For a barcode scanner, look for an HID (human interface device) interface, HID devices "act" like you're just typing the info in from the keyboard.
Good Luck.

Thank you for your help. I am looking at switching over from Breeze software to Helios and would like to be able to us the same items as possible to eliminate extra expense. I wanted to try and get an idea on what could be recycled and what would have to be a new purchase.
