About the Scanner
The internal scanner can read 1D and 2D bar code symbologies,
composite symbologies, and postal codes. It also supports omni-
directional scanning for greater flexibility in real-world settings. The
image engine can also capture black and white images, such as
signatures and pictures of damaged inventory.
How to Scan Bar Codes as Keyboard Input
The scan wedge feature sends scanned bar code data to an active
application as Android keypad input. To scan a bar code as keyboard
input, open an application that accepts text input and then scan a bar
code. By default, scan wedging is enabled on the CT50 computer.
You can use applications that are coded to use the scanner or
applications that receive data through the scan wedge feature. If an
application claims the scanner through the BarcodeReader API, the
scan wedge feature is temporarily disabled. You can find information on
how to create custom applications for the CT50 in the
