Recognition of different barcode readers?

I have two barcode scanners which are connected to a single PC via USB ports. I want to insert data coming from them into SQL Server. How I can know which one of them sends the string?

My Windows Forms app has only one textbox. Barcode scanners are passive devices without any IP or MAC address.

you can usually configure the last character the handscanner "types" by scanning a specific QR code in the user manual. Its often "Enter" or "Tab" You can configure both scanners to have different termination characters and if you implment your application in a way to differentiate between the two, you can easlily identity which handscanner was used
