BlackBerry UPC Barcode Scanner

Hi all

I am currently trying to write an application to scan UPC barcodes and return the number of barcodes. I use the BlackBerry Plugin for Eclipse and I have an example of a QR barcode scanner that has the following code for the bar code decoding:

public ViewFinderScreen()

{

Advice of Hashtable = new Hashtable();

Vector formats = new Vector();

formats.addElement (BarcodeFormat.QR_CODE);

hints.put (DecodeHintType.POSSIBLE_FORMATS, formats);

hints.put (DecodeHintType.TRY_HARDER, Boolean.TRUE);

Decoder BarcodeDecoder = new BarcodeDecoder (hints);

I tried to change the QR_CODE to UPC_A or UPC_E, but none work. What should I do?

All suggestions are welcome!

Thank you

James

What controls the direction in which it is read?

  • Code sample of Bluetooth barcode scanner

    Hi all

    I'm trying to read data from a bluetooth scanner. The BlackBerry BluetoothSerialPortDemo shows how to handle this, I can connect to the scanner, but I never recover data.

    The manufacturer was told by a local software to emulate the keyboard, but I don't see any sense on this. Is it hard just to open a serial port and read what the scanner sends?

    You have some examples of how open the bluetooth serial port and how to get the data from the barcode scanner?

    Thanks in advance.

    You don't need a corner.

    You just need to write your own communication code that will retrieve the barcode scanned the scanner and your fill with data.

  • "Unknown device" USB Barcode scanner, problem with the USB controller driver?

    Hello

    I need assistance with our Barcode Scanners that doesn't work on our newly purchased computers at HP with Windows7 Pro x 64 operating systems.

    The brand and model of the bar code scanner is:

    Datalogic Heron D130 USB.

    When you connect the scanner to a USB port, Windows will try to install this as a HID, but it takes an unusually long time, about 7-8 seconds, to boot the device and install the drivers and appears as an unknown device in windows "devices and printers" and the hand scanner does not work.

    Sometimes when you move the USB back can I sometimes the scanner at hand to be recognized as an HID device or a Datalogic barcode scanner,

    It works fine until you restart the computer.

    After restart the computer cannot detect the scanner Barcode correctly without re - appears as unknown device.

    I suspect that there is a compatibility problem between barcode scanner and card USB controller on the computers.

    I tried to update all the drivers available on the website www.hp.com and same www.Intel.com (chipset drivers) but nothing has helped to solve this problem

    Tried newly bought barcode scanners and "used" barcode scanners earlier who works on other computers, but the problem remains.

    I found a workaround by connection of bar codes in a USB hub, and then plug the USB hub to the computer.  And leave the USB - hub to take care of the communication with the Barcode Scanner.

    in this case, it takes about 2 seconds for the code scanner barcode to mount correctly in windows under the heading "devices and printers" and then works perfectly, even after a reboot.

    I googled after a response after my problem, but it seems I'm the only one who experience this issue. ?!

    Bought more than 40 computers that I have this problem.

    These were bought at different times with two different for suppliers

    Computer model are the following

    HP ProDesk 1 400 P/N5S21EA

    Specifikations:

    http://WWW8.HP.com/emea_africa/en/products/desktops/product-detail.html?OID=6614160#! tab = specifications

    Does anyone have an idea what could be wrong and how to fix it?

    Thanks in advance

    Sincerely

    Hello

    The problem is not power - related.

    We use passive USB hubs that solves the problemon these computers.

    (it also works with the docks, or if you EliteDisplay E241 HP as we thers a usb hub 2 ports inbulit in monitor that works.)

    The problem lies in the incompatibility between the Intel USB controller and the hand scanner, can be connected to USB 3.0

    When you let another usb-controller support in handshakeing (such as a usb hub), it works.

    Datalogic or Intel would like to acknowledge this error.

    Because none of the big companies want to acknowledge the problem or repair, personally chose to switch to an AMD platform / CPU instead of the Intel and now it works fine!

    We get more performance for your money when AMD is usually less expensive to purchase.

    And because of the poor of Datalogic press where they don't even answer e-mail (their only channel for support)

    I chose to stop using their products. I'm going to use another provider / brand of barcodescanners.

  • Is it possible to use virtual touch keyboard when a HID barcode scanner is connected to BlackBerry Z10?

    Hello everyone!

    I intend to build a web application for the BlackBerry Z10 with which you can scan bar codes for inventory management. For this I use a KDC200 Bluetooth laser scanner barcode. I've used this scanner barcode with the BlackBerry Bold 9700 and a Java application using the net.rim.device.api.bluetooth.BluetoothSerialPortListener. The scanner was then developed the SPP (Serial Port Profile) mode and this solution worked well.

    Now with the Z10 BlackBerry, I connect the Bluetooth bar code scanner as a HID device because the PSP seems to be taken in charge by the Z10 (?). With PSP no connection can be established at all. This type of connection setting (HID/SPP) can be switched on the scanner device. When the scanner is connected as a HID, the value of the scanned bar code is correctly written in the input field focus on the BlackBerry. But now, there is a downside: as long as the HID scanner is connected, touch virtual keyboard of the Z10 is disabled and does not appear when you tap on an input field - in any application.

    These input methods (HID vs virtual keyboard) are mutually exclusive, or is at - it a way to get the virtual keyboard works while the HID scanner is connected? In my web form there is sometimes a barcode field and normal input fields, for example to analyze a bar code, and then manually enter a quantity.

    BTW: for ergonomic reasons, there is no to enter the barcode with the camera of the smartphone. In addition, the solution must be implemented in the form of a web application.

    Are there opportunities?

    Best regards.

    Have you tried the Salvation two fingers?  Swipe up from the bottom of the screen with two fingers to open the keyboard.  I found that this worked when the keyboard was unable to present themselves on the fields of entry on some websites.

  • Barcode Scanner issue

    Hi all

    I have a field with the property the maximum length of 10, Yes to Skip auto ownership and a set of default button with code to be executed when the user scans a barcode
    Now when the user analysis number of length 10, due to the properties of field, he moves to the next field automatically and runs when-validate-item trigger and when scanner barcode that is intended to "Enter/Return ' is scanned, the button code is executed and all is well.

    But my problem is when the user scans a number that is less than 10, the code of the default key is performed before the trigger when-validate-point in the field

    So my question is, if the number is of variable length, then how can we make of the when-validate-item trigger first, then the default button

    I can't change the settings of the bar code due to many users in different places and also many other reasons. changing the setting of bar code is not an option.

    Thank you

    The field has character data type, so that the idea does not work

    Then try code LPADing bar with spaces. The same theory applies - forms will adjust automatically the spaces of the field went to registration. Worth a try! ;-)

  • Is it possible with a Windows 8 tablet to use the camera as a barcode scanner as if I plugged it in a in a normal office environment?

    Hello

    I'm trying to find a solution to a problem with our inventory of the warehouse. We would like to digitize our bar codes, using the built in camera on Windows 8, not a Windows RT Tablet Tablet and then this information put in directly in preference, an Excel worksheet. I can't go through hoops too because she must be quick. Very, very fast.
    Is this possible?

    Hello

    I suggest you to check the Windows store and find the best code reader barcode that could help you with those preferences.

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-8/explore-Windows-store#1TC=T1

    I'm not sure how the information would be sent directly to the Excel sheet, you should check the application developers.
