[SunRay-Users] Symbol USB Barcode Scanner Resetting NUMLOCK

[Nishimura, Scott L (IT Solutions)]

One point of clarification:  is it that the NUMLOCK *function* is being disabled or merely that the NUMLOCK *LED* is being toggled?

The reason I ask this somewhat odd question is that I've noticed that the NUMLOCK LED behavior can get flipped [LED=on means NUMLOCK is off] under certain circumstances.

I have read through all, at least that I have been able to find, references to issues people are experiencing with barcode scanners deactivating NUMLOCK when using non Type7 keyboards.  I have not been able to resolve the issue despite setting the scanner to HID Keyboard Emulation, North american Standard USB Keyoard etc.
 
Has anyone found a sure fire way to resolve this without having to procure Type7 keyboards?
 
Sunray Software = SRS 5.2 (4.2 / 2.3)
OS = OEL 5.5
Keyboards = PC, logitech
 
Thank you in advance,
