Please utilize this article to catalog applications for which we currently have no entries in our scanners or receivers area.  
As newer PCs don't have serial ports, connections must be made between the scanner and the PC through USB. This can present some difficulties in understanding how to configure the connection correctly. Please see our [[Connecting scanners via USB]] article for more information.
