| generally you will find those at local computer stores. They do have PS2 to usb if i am not mistaken, but they only work for Keyboards, maybe your device is just a fancy keyboard peripheral. You could hook a DIN5 to P2. edit: You dont have a ps2 port?

| The scanners are hand held models - old ones. Thats all the info I have. I need to convert the dinn connectors to usb's.

| I vaguely remember a hand scanner we had many many years ago. It connected via its own interface card. The cable had a PS2 type connector. I doubt that it is as simple as a PS2/USB adapter. I think it was a Logitech ScanMan 32 Hand Held Scanner! |

| like a Credit Card/Barcode scaner, or an image scanner? If its the cc/barcode scanner, it will likely work, since it would be like a keyboard. If its an image scanner, it will likely not work, maybe DIN5-PS2 would work, but i doubt if USB would work, doesnt your computer have a PS2 port?
