What Larry Lipman said is exactly right... The pinout is industry standard...
Quoted from the standard model 100 manual (now that I'm becoming an expert
on the model 100 :--) ):
PIN Symbol Description
1 NC
2 RxDB Receive data from bar code reader
3 NC
4 NC
5 GND Ground
6 NC
7 GND Ground
8 NC
9 VDD +5
I have never used the bar code reader, though. I know Radio Shack publishes
programs in bar code format.
I have the standard manual, and the Tech Ref manual, complete with
schematics, and theory, if you need to ask any questions...
Cheers!
