Is there a way to use a usb mouse and keyboard to navigate and enter data on a c-more 15 " If so is there a way to add a barcode scanner to the mix My goal is for the operator to scan a barcode that represent an item, then do a process on this item, then log the trend graph data for this item, then enter some comments about the process with the keyboard. any ideas?

Any HID USB Barcode scanner should work, but there is no way to have a mouse pointer.

Yes an HID USB keyboard will work. With the Entry objects you must select Style 2.
