This can happen if you have several scanners due to collisions during initial identification. But since you have only one you should also check the wiring
Checked the wiring, should be fine.. 
RS485 A -> Yellow (2nd pin)
RS485 B -> Green (1st pin)
nothing in gnd.

Keeps blinking orange after 3 seconds of blue steady light. Just tried to change different cables in hope it might be it, is there any way I can refresh it so it looks for the scanner or is it automatic since in "Ekey -> Logs" it shows "Error: No modules found" but the timestamp is from 40 minutes ago.

Also, few weeks ago I tried something with this port where I used this script:
Code:
-- open port on first call
if not port then
require('serial')
port = serial.open('/dev/RS485-1', { baudrate = 4800, parity = 'odd', duplex = 'half', databits = 8, stopbits = 1 })
port:flush()
end
-- port ready
if port then
-- read one byte
char = port:read(1, 1)
-- send back if read succeeded
if char then
port:write(char)
end
end

grp.write('30/1/1', char)
Can this be an issue?

EDIT: Checked operating instructions, there it says that when orange light is blinking I should check the wiring or commission the device. Wiring seems fine, but how do I commission it. I only have the scanner, I don't have the keypad. Also, on the screenshot in the ekey scanner tutorial example here on the site, you have a picture where there is "Rescan / Search" button in Scanners tab. I don't have that.
