Using the Barcode Reader with QR codes

Manchester Art Gallery is trialling QR codes in its Remembering Slavery: Revealing History display. From 1-29 March visitors will be able to use their mobile phones to retrieve specially designed web pages. The pages invite visitors to submit comments on six works on show, and listen to and read poems and comments on some of the objects.
More information on the display is at http://www.manchestergalleries.org/whats-on/community-programmes/current-projects/
The project was initiated by Julian Tomlin, a freelance consultant who is undertaking a review of machine-readable technologies in museums for a consortium of London museums.
Come to the Gallery on Moseley Street, Manchester and try out your phone. The N95 includes a barcode reader. On Saturday 1 March there will be people on hand to offer some guidance. Let us know what you think of this emerging technology.

If your phone doesn't have bar code reader. This one works great for me:

    it is urgently neede pls help me.

    Warm regards

    Hi Shanto,
    The problem might be the width of the barcode. Try increasing the width, and the reader would recognise it.

  • How do I set the filename using the inline reader with a web browser?

    Hi all,
        Most likely an age-old question that I have not been able to track down an answer for ...
        My application presents a pdf to the user using an embedded reader and gives them the saveas button as an option in the toolbar.
        When they go to save the file it defaults the filename to be the entire URL of the document.
        How can this be changed to be something more user-friendly??
        Thanks in advance for any help you can provide for this issue.
    -Dennis

    I suppose you could use Javascript.
    Or you could display the content within the applet itself.
    But probably the best thing would be to have the server return a URL (or an identifying token to be added to a URL) and the applet could use AppletContext.showDocument to send the user to another page.
    That's my opinion anyway.

  • Please help: Utility used to install the update failed with exit code {0}.

    Hi,
    I admit to being a relative newbie at Solaris 10 administration, so please exercise forbearance on my behalf.
    I have just installed Solaris 10 11/06 on my laptop x86. Everything went fairly smoothly. I used the Installation Check Tool 1.2 to decide if my machine was adequate to run the OS and with the exception of a NIC driver, it was. I downloaded the sfe driver and configured networking and it seems to work exceptionally well. However, when I run Update Manager in JDS (the only way I know how to run it), it fails to update some of the packages. Sometimes, if I retry the same packages, sometimes it will eventually work. But it keeps failing with the following error on a consistent basis over the last several days:
    Utility used to install the update failed with exit code {0}.
    I hunted around on the web and the results were not promising. Is there a log somewhere that will give me the actual error or do y'all know of a quick fix.
    Thanks,
    Will

  • 4 is not compatable with my HP simple pass identity protection using the fingertip reader. How do i make it work? IE9 works fine. Do I have to stop using FireFox??

    I have a HP DV7-4165 that has Windows 7 64 bit and features the HP simple pass identity protection using the fingertip reader. My Firefox support says " If you have the Firefox browser on your computer when your HP SimplePass Identity Protection software is installed, a Firefox extension will also be installed that enables support for use of fingerprints with the Firefox browser." Once I updated to Firefox 4 it doesn't work anymore.

    I have the same problem. Hopefully, those with HP Simplepass from Egistec will have relief. Here's the email I got from their customer support:
    "Thank you for contacting EgisTec and your interest on our products.
    Currently HP SimplePass does not support Firefox 4. However, our development team is working on this and the updated version of HP SimplePass will support Firefox4 in the near future. We will inform you by mail when it is ready.
    Please visit our website regularly to look for further updates on our products.
    Thank you very much for your valuable feedback.
    Yours Sincerely

  • Synchronize barcode reader with SAP Gui

    Hi,
    to speed up the order entry in transaction VA01 we've added a small dynpro which collects the line items before sending them to VA01.
    Now the users are using a barcode reader to enter the product code. In the current configuration the barcode reader is sending an additional ENTER after each product code to perform some checks and to jump to the next field.
    The problem is that the user is scanning the next item before the SAPGui is ready for input again (it's still executing the checks initiated by ENTER). This results in characters being lost without notification by the user, because they are not checking the screen after each scan.
    Configuring the barcode reader to send TAB instead of ENTER is no solution either since this will result in problems when the screen is full and the user does see it.
    Is there anything I can do to prevent that the input is corrupted?
    TIA,
    Martin

    Hi Martin,  I've seen that same thing at my company.  We got rid of the problem just by upgrading the sapconsole to 6.40,  with this release,   there was something added,  a screen which says  " Processing.......... "  when the system is processing the data.  It is the only thing on the screen at the time and returns control back to the user when complete.  This does not keep them from scanning but does keep them from scanning in your your custom screen(which may or may not be helpful)  WIth this message, by itself,  this did not fix our problem, but it did give the users something to look at instead of a the same screen being locked up.  The user did not know whether the system was ready or not, so they kept scanning. 
    In conclusion,  I think you need to do two things.  a) Get to SAPconsole 6.40, so that the processing message will be there,  b)  train the users to look at the screen,  if it says "Processing",  then they MUST wait.

  • Trying to use the JSSE library with Jrocket 7.0

    Hi All,
    I HAC who is trying to use the JSSE library with Jrocket 7.0.
    Sometimes the socket works and sometimes it does not. It throws the below
    exception,
    The exception stacktrace is given below:
    java.net.SocketException: SSL implementation not available
    at
    javax.net.ssl.DefaultSSLSocketFactory.createSocket(Ljava.lang.String;I)Ljava
    .net.Socket;(Unknown Source)

    at
    COM.jrockit.reflect.NativeMethodInvoker.invoke(Ljava.lang.Object;[Ljava.lang
    .Object;)Ljava.lang.Object;(Unknown Sou
    the line of code causing the stack trace is:
    Socket socket =
    javax.net.ssl.SSLSocketFactory.getDefault().createSocket(HOST, PORT);
    He has added the following line to his jre/lib/security/java.security file:
    security.provider.3=com.sun.net.ssl.internal.ssl.Provider
    and he has added the JSSE jar files to the jre/lib/ext directory.
    The problem occurs when SSL is enabled in the config.xml file (e.g. <SSL
    Enabled="true" ...>). It does NOT occur when SSL is disabled.
    When SSL is disabled, the following code shows all three providers as
    defined in the java.security file. If SSL is enabled then he only sees the
    default 2 implementation and NOT the one he added above.
    java.security.Provider[] a = java.security.Security.getProviders();
    for (int i=0; i < a.length; i++)
    System.out.println("name: " + a.getName());
    System.out.println("ver: " + a[i].getVersion());
    System.out.println("info: " + a[i].getInfo());
    The problem is that client does not want to use WebLogic specific classes to
    create an SSL socket. As well he do NOT wish to dynamically register the
    SunJSSE provider. Since this setup works when SSL is disabled in WebLogic he
    believes he has configured everything properly.
    It appears to me that WebLogic is removing the JSSE as a security provider
    if SSL is enabled.
    Is it the expected behaviour? and Is it possible to statically register the
    JSSE provider in the jre/lib/security/java.security file ?
    Any pointers will be appreciated,
    Thanks in advance,
    Rubesh

    Hi Howard, just trawling through the Labview TE issues as I myself have started to work on a similar issue. I have now infact upgraded the Labview Test Executive to work in 7.1 ok (both development and Runtime).
    Using XP I had no issues upgrading in the development environment - creating the run-time version was not as easy but manged to do so with help from the Application Builder. I have also tested the SQL function (as i log to Oracle) and a basic audio test using a DSA4551 - again both seem to be upgraded with no issues.
    regards, paul.

    Jey,
    here is my hyperterm replacement, I use it for first serial tests on new devices.
    It's maybe more than you need and not even documented.
    It's in LabVIEW 7.1 now (was 6.1), and this new serial assistant looks even more powerful than this, however I haven't used the assistant (started with LV3.1 ;-)

  • Can I use a barcode scanner with LR?

    Hello -
    I am taking some school photographs and need to change the file name of each image to the registration number of the pupil.  Is there a way of using a barcode scanner with LR to scan the code of the pupil's reg no and then automatically change the filename?
    I saw a thread here http://forums.adobe.com/thread/799772 - but couldn't find the fields etc referred to.
    While I'm here - can I download LR 4 SDK as part of Creative Cloud subscription?

  • How do I use the App store with macbook pro and mac pro

    I currently use the app store with the mac book, but want to buy (share?) apps and music with the mac pro.
    I can't find anything that specifically outlines how this works.
    I use SplashID with the macbook and an iPhone, and want to use it (and sync it) on the mac pro as well.
    If you buy apps for a macbook, can you use them on a second machine, or do you need to buy it a second time?

    Your license from the MAS allows you to download and install the apps on as many Macs as you own or have under your control (institutional or employer supplied Macs.) The Mac should to be running Mac OS X 10.6.8 Snow Leopard or Mac OS X 10.7.2 Lion. Open the MAS app on the Mac Pro and sign into your account to have access to download all of your previous purchases in the Purchased pane.
    Simple apps can also be dragged & dropped over a network connection from the MacBook to the Mac Pro.
