Barcode Scanning 9-6
Scan Wedge App
The Janam XT2 also comes preloaded with the
Scan Wedge
application. When active, Scan Wedge
runs in the background and can send scanned and decoded data directly into the currently active
foreground application. For example, with Scan Wedge active, the XT2 can be used to scan barcode
data directly into a Microsoft Word or Excel template, or any other app that accepts input data.
To activate
Scan Wedge
, go to
Scan Settings
and toggle the on/off switch to on. Under
Basic
you
can enable
Auto Scan
, set the
Auto Scan Interval
in intervals between 0.25 and 10 seconds, or
enable
Continuous Scan
. Under
Wedge
you can specify transmitting a barcode ID, an aim ID, as
well as a
Prefix
, a
Suffix
, and a
Terminator
. These can be used to add some formatting to the
scans, or bring them into a format suitable for subsequent processing. You can also toggle Transmit
Barcode ID on and off, and specify a Group Separator.
To the right are two
examples of using
Scan Wedge
to scan
barcode data right
into a
Word
file and
an
Excel
file.
