Welcome to FM Forums. I've moved your topic here because it's similar to questions people ask about using bar code scanners.

Essentially you'll want a script that creates a new record and parses data from your reader, but without knowing more about the data format I can't be much help. Most barcode readers simply send the data like it was coming from a keyboard. If yours does the same, I suggest you look through some of the bar code threads here and see if that gives you some ideas.
