Unable to find scanner configuration name - PIOS Exception

Hi all
I am trying to activate the barcode scanner of SYMBOL 9090 pocket pc. I am following the code given in the SAP help PIOS examples for scanner.
Connector conn = Connector.getInstance();
DriverInfo[] driverInfo = conn.listDrivers(ConnectionType.SCANNER);
ScannerParameters params = new ScannerParameters(driverInfo[0]);
params.setMode(ScannerParameters.WEDGE);
scannerConnection = (ScannerConnection) conn.open(params);***
I have installed the corresponding driver and connector. While executing the code following exception is thrown at line 5 (***).
"Unable to find scanner configuration name". The following is the error captured by the log file (mi/pios/log).

Hi,
Why don't you try to get the DataWedge 2.0 from Symbol (at least I've enabled the Barcode Scanning for MC70 with it) http://support.symbol.com/support/search.do?cmd=displayKC&docType=kc&externalId=KB100417&sliceId=&dialogID=12382809&stateId=0%200%20541133

How would I create an USB Barcode Scanner Listener using Adobe AIR?

I want to create a USB barcode scanner listener that would read in the scanned barcode, and place the barcode in a field in my AIR App even if the program wasn't focused on that particular field in the App. If the client was using the application at the time for something else the scan would be buffered in AIR till requested or the AIR App has been idle for x period of time where upon the field would be brought into focus.
How would I go about this (I'm developing on windows) Was hoping for a USB solution within AIR but not fussy at all if I have to go outside AIR to solve this problem. Java, Flex, ActionScript, Flash, C, C++, C#, VB (currently I've developed the rest of the App using Adobe AIR and JavaScript)
I thought after some research that I could make a Java App (if all else fails) that listens and buffers the input and passes it along using a socket but JUSB doesn't work on Windows properly.
I'm not stuck on any one particular implementation or idea just want to get development underway so... Any ideas? or suggestions would be awesome. I've googled a lot but haven't found any examples or solid suggestions, so any URL pointing to that information would be great too, if you know of a good one, then I'd be able to read up on any suggestion.
Thanks,
Marty

Thanks Joe,
Just for anyone else. I bought a Metologic Scanner - VoyagerCG. I was trying to get it to work using Java USB for a bit with no luck. But if you get this scanner or one like it, it can be configured as a Virtual COM Port. Which is very very easy in Java to set up as a listener and use sockets to transfer the data and listen within AIR.
This PDF has links to drivers and instructions if this is useful to anyone.

Wrong characters in KeyEvents generated from input of barcode scanner

Hi everybody, :-)
I have a problem with KeyEvents coming from a barcode scanner. The issue seems to have creeped in somewhere between JSE 6u3 and 6u10, as in the former it works as expected and in the latter it does not. The problem persists still, we also tested it with 6u22 and 6u23 (all tests were performed on the same Windows XP machine). The actual test client is very simple, the application is only a JFrame containing a JTextField and a JTextArea.
The barcode scanner we use connects via USB and has no special driver. The scanner already decodes the barcode that was scanned and "enters" characters in the focussed text field of the test application by emulating the Alt+NumPad behaviour (the character '5' being produced by the equivalent of holding Alt and entering "0053" on the NumPad).
Now, what appears when the application is run in JSE 6u03 is the expected result:
5@WM010$|
5@WM010$|
5@WM010$|
5@WM010$|
Here's the result for the same barcode when the application is run in JSE 6u10 (results for 6u23 are similar):
5@WÞ10ä
é@—M010$|
5@W¥ð104|
5°ùM0ó(▄♀
5@W¥010$|
é@WM010Ü\
é@W¥010P\
5@wy010$|
5@m01Ð$▄
)°W¥01è$|
)@—0ÑÐ$|
Well, at least it manages to get some characters right every time... ;-)
The character values are wrong already when the KeyEvent for each is being created and posted to the EventQueue. But on the other hand, the problem is obviously tied to the JSE used, so it has to occur somewhere after Java receives the input and before a KeyEvent is generated. Since the errors are very random, we are guessing that it might be a timing problem.
Between JSE 6u3 and 6u10, KeyEvent has received some new members (here with their typical values for my use case):
#isSystemGenerated     true
#primaryLevelUnicode     0
#rawCode     0
#scancode     0
Maybe the problem could have been introduced in the same changeset? Or maybe the values observed are meaningful in a way?
Can anybody enlighten me, or give me a hint of any kind? I already scoured the bug database but did not find anything.
Thanks! Any help is appreciated!
Regards, Lars

@mriem: Yes, I did. In all cases, it is "windows-1252". And moreover, if it were a problem with the default character set, it would not show the random behaviour it does.
I also managed to create a reproducer that shows the behaviour:

Enter command on barcode scanner

Dear Expert,
We trying using module AR Invoice with payment ad POS system... We just change the barcode column field become the first column, then using barcode scanner to key in the items. Unfortunately each time the scanner send the numbers also send 'enter comand' after it, so it's close the AR invoice + Payment. Second item must open in new AR invoice. Any idea to resolve the problem?

Hi,
Check the setting for the barcode scanner. The barcode scanner scanning normally can be program. I have implement before POS system and my client is now using This AR Invoice + payment as POS as well..

Java barcode scanner help

Hi. I am working on a barcode scanning program in Java.
I have a Wasp WCS3905 USB barcode scanner and what I want to do is scan the barcode of anything (chocolates, books, etc) and then I want the program to open the file where the barcodes and respective names of products are stored and display the scanned barcode and the name of the product.
(ie: 5000158064041 --- Headache Tablets)
That is how I want to display it. Nothing fancy, just a single line with the barcode and the name of product.
This is what I have done so far:
# I have an applet with a textfield and a button. The textfield received focus each time the applet starts and when I scan the barcode it appears in the textfield. The button is used to clear the text in the textfield.
I haven't created the products file yet(with barcodes and names) because I don't know how I need to sctructure it. Does it need to be an Access file or can it be a Notepad file?
And also, could the program fetch the product name as soon as the barcode appears in the textfield or do I need to click a button which will fetch the name?
Thanks in advance and any help will be appreciated.

Adesso Nuscan 2100 Barcode Scanner Questions

I just bought an Adesso Nuscan 2100U (USB) Barcode Scanner and I'm having trouble getting the computer to see it. When I first plug it in to a USB port, I get the "new or unrecognized keyboard" popup window, and it begins the setup process. Problem is, since it's not really a keyboard, I can't complete the setup, and I think my Mac then simply ignores the scanner. By saying ignore I mean I open a program like TextEdit, scan a known good barcode with the gun, and nothing appears on the screen.
Has anybody used a scanner like this, and if so, how did you get the computer to recognize it and work properly? Adesso and the packaging for the product all say it's Mac compatible, but there are no setup instructions anywhere that I could find. So, I'm stuck.
I'm using a PowerMac G5 with Tiger 10.4.11, and I'm plugging the scanner into the front USB port which works just fine for all other USB devices I've got. My eventual use for this scanner is to scan information into FileMaker Pro databases. I've also tried it under 10.5 Leopard, and on a Windows PC. I can't get any text on the screen (in any app) after I scan a bar code.
Thanks for your help!
Jeff

Not to be rude or contrary, but if you read my entire posting, the same unit (usb scanner) works successfully on at least three other machines with different processors running Leopard.
To further elaborate:
• manufacturer has been contacted and in touch - they have no idea why it doesn't work on mini
• no software or drivers - none needed for all the other machines
• my workaround (deleting .plist file) did nothing except prompt
the computer to ask me what kind of keyboard device it was (none)
Thanks for the effort... and the welcome.

Excel as a barcode scanner- Is it possible?

Hello all,
I'm working with a spreadsheet that contains the several codes that will be converted to barcode. Those barcodes will then be scanned by a barcode scanner into another software.
Trying to improve my time I start to think about one possible solution. The solution is:
Is there any code that I can use to make excel to send those codes to this program, acting like a Scanner, or better saying like a fake scanner.
I have found several tutorials about how to send the barcode from the scanner to excel. But my goal is send the barcode (code) from excel to another software.
Thank you guys.
Paulo Gularte

Hi,
According to your description, I thinks we may split the process to analyze the issue.
First, we could get the cell value by using macro in Excel, please refer to this link:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/office/ff838238(v=office.15).aspx
Second, we need to send the value from Excel to another software, this step is based on the another software' API how to communicate with Excel. You'd better connect the software provider and write the code by yourself.
If you have any question about writing code, please post your question to MSND forum for Excel
http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/home?forum=exceldev&filter=alltypes&sort=lastpostdesc
The reason why we recommend posting appropriately is you will get the most qualified pool of respondents, and other partners who read the forums regularly can either share their knowledge or learn from your interaction with us. Thank you for your understanding.

Barcode scanner help

Hello friends
I have a big problem using my old metrologic ms9520 barcode scanner.My graduation project depends on barcode scanner and I use that scanner.I read in one forum that it works like a keyboard to get barcode data from it,but I tried that,no results.Also I read that I can do tat by downloading javacomm 2.0 which contains a dll file and properties file but when I downloaded javacomm 3.0 but I didnt found that files just a jar file javacomm.jar.
I dont know how to retrieve barcode information using that scanner.
I cant download its configuration files on the site " http://www.honeywellaidc.com/Site.aspx/eu/fr/resources/product_downloads/software/?product=297 ".
Please friends help me because time is against me
Thank you very much

Serial barcode scanner

I have created a vi to read a barcode scanner (Mfg Handheld Model 3800 series) attached to the COM1 serial port. The barcode I am scanning is standard code 39 and after scanning it into Hyper terminal, it matches the label. However, when I scan it using the vi attached, it does not match up. The vi works, it just does not show the correct characters. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Barcode.vi ‏23 KB

So, your Hyperterminal Setup looks like this? Which specific model of the 3800 do you have? Handheld list several in that series, none of which are just 3800. The one I happened to look at, the 3800g, has a default setup which is different than what you have, so I am assuming you changed the basic configuration of the scanner?

Making barcode scanner work

Hello,
I am stuck here with the barcode scanner "Symbol LS2208" via USB and have to use it in a Java app. I am using jdk 1.5 and downloaded the javax.comm API. Now i have some problems with which I hope one of you can help me. Is there a way to read from the scanner via USB, because as far as I can see the javax.comm API supports only serial ports and does the whole thing work with JDK 1.5, as javax.comm seems to have been written for JDK 1.2? I really would appreciate if one could get me started at least with some helpful documentation or examples...actually anything :-)

I don't know about reading the USB input directly, and I don't know about your particular scanner.
However, I have a Symbol LS4000 that I use in keyboard emulation mode. Is that an option for you? Or does it have to be the raw USB input?
If you can use keyboard emulation mode, you'll probably have to configure the scanner to do that. For the one I have, the scanner gets configured by scanning various barcodes in the manual.
So check with your prof or get the docs for the scanner. You'll need that as well as whatever Java knowledge is relevant for the approach you choose.

Barcode Scanner as Keyboard?

Hi, I have create a simple barcode JFrame with JTextField, and my system is connect a barcode scanner, if i scan a sample barcode, can it transfer barcode in alphabet onto JTextField so far? Thank You.

You can defenitely do it with ease.:

How can i use an barcode scanner and a keyboard at the same time on Ipad

HI I am looking to find a way to use a barcode scanner and the on screen key bard at the same time, so far i cant seem to find a way to do it.
Does any one know how this can be done.
thanks

It is possible, I use multiple versions, however Firefox official policy is that you use firefox3.6 or 5 ; not firefox 4 which is not secure and not supported.
The easiest solution may be to use firefox portable http://portableapps.com/apps/internet/firefox_portable/localization#legacy36 although firefox 3.6 will itself not be supported for much longer.

A barcode scanner that was connected directly to the Mac's USB port stopped working as the "USB had too much power drawn", even though it has worked for over a year in that port. WHen we plugged it into the port on the keyboard, the device works. Why?

A barcode scanner that was connected directly to the Mac's USB port stopped working as the "USB had too much power drawn", even though it has worked for over a year in that port. When we plugged it into the port on the keyboard, the device works. Why? Obviously the device is operational. Could the USB port have burned out from having too much power drawn? If so, is it reparable?

It can't draw "too much" power, it can only draw as much as the USB port is able to provide and no more. IIRC, the keyboard port has a lower power output than the iMac's port.
That being said, yea, it's possible that the port has failed and it can be replaced or if another port works you can use that one. Although if it is still under warranty or covered by Apple Care, then I would take it to an Apple Store or service provider to get the port repaired.

Iam new to Barcode Scanner configuration
