allDecoders

Type

BOOLEAN

Description

When set to true, the barcode scanner reads all barcode types that the scanner is capable of reading. When set to false, the barcode scanner can decode no symbologies. A setting of false can be useful for resetting the scanner to a default state before subsequently enabling only the required symbologies. The fewer symbologies enabled, the faster the decoding performance.

This property will return true only if all symbologies supported by the scanner are enabled. Returns a value of false if only a subset of supported symbologies are enabled. Note that some decoders will not be enabled as some symbologies use the same systems to encode data, making it impossible to differentiate between them. For example: "canpostal" and "auspostal" both use a 4-state system, so devices will enable either "canpostal" OR "auspostal" ONLY when "alldecoders" is enabled. Note that other symbologies also share the 4-state system.

Allows the imager to decode only the barcode that is directly under the cross-hair on Android and center of the reticle on WM/CE. This feature is most useful in applications where multiple barcodes may appear in the field of view during a decode session and only one of them is targeted for decode. When enabled picklistMode will override aimMode or, if no aiming is chosen, and use aimMode:reticle.

• Constant: EB.Barcode.PICKLIST_HARDWARE_RETICLE - String: hardwareReticle Enables picklist mode so that only the barcode under the projected reticle can be decoded. On Windows, if the imager does not support a projected reticle then the behavior is the same as softwareReticle. On Android, this is only supported for Imager (non-viewfinder) based scanners.
• Constant: EB.Barcode.PICKLIST_SOFTWARE_RETICLE - String: softwareReticle Enables picklist mode so that only the barcode in the center of the image is decoded on WM/CE and under the cross-hair on Android. This is most useful when used in conjunction with static and dynamic reticle viewfinder modes.

Remarks

Methods and Properties

Barcode respective APIs will only work if the underlying layers supports it. For further details, refer EMDK documentation.

Scanner and Barcode Limitations

The RE 2.x Scanner API and the EB 1.x Barcode API should not be used simultaneously in any Enterprise Browser application; only one or the other should be used.

DecodeSound Limitation

If decodeSound property contains '.wav'/'.ogg' filename same as system filename, the system '.wav'/'.ogg' file is selected for playing when a scanned barcode is successfully decoded.

Custom Sound Limitation

On some Android devices, only the first set values of custom decode sound properties (i.e. decodeVolume, decodeFrequency and decodeDuration) take effect, even after setting multiple times with different values. The Enterprise Browser application must be restarted to apply the different values for custom decode sound properties.

Omnii XT15

On the Zebra Omnii XT15 device running Windows Mobile/CE, the decode success and failure sounds are not audible unless the decode sound is configured manually in the Config.xml file. To configure this setting, see the <ScanDecodeWav> parameter in the Config.xml Reference Guide.

Bluetooth Scanner Overview

Once a Bluetooth scanner is associated with a device, it remains associated even after losing the BT connection. To associate a different Bluetooth scanner with the device, it is necessary to scan the 'unpairing' barcode and invoke the 'disabled' method followed by the 'enabled' method. This allows scanning of the BT association barcode to associate with a different scanner. Override this default behavior using the disconnectBtOnDisable property.

The BluetoothStatus event provides the following Bluetooth scanner messages:

• BTScanAssociationBarcode - The device is ready to be associated with a Bluetooth scanner. To perform a first-time association, use the scanner to scan the association barcode. This pairing is remembered until the unpairing barcode is scanned.

• BluetoothConnected - The remote scanner has successfully connected to the device.

• BluetoothDisconnected - The remote scanner is disconnected from the device. This can be due to a dead battery, being out of range, or scanning the unpairing barcode. The scanner automatically attempts to reconnect for a period of time once it regains power or signal. Press the "reconnect" button if it fails to reconnect automatically. Once the unpairing barcode is scanned, it is necessary to disable and re-enable the scanner before another scanner can be associated.

Bluetooth Scanners On Android

Enterprise Browser does not support Bluetooth scanners on the Zebra TC70 GA1 device.

Enterprise Browser supports Bluetooth scanners on devices running Android KitKat and higher.

Viewfinder Position Parameters

On Zebra Technologies' scanners, the scanner viewfinder window is not infinitely resizable. When setting ViewFinderX, ViewFinderY, ViewFinderWidth and ViewFinderHeight, do not exceed the size of the screen. Zebra also recommends using the same aspect ratio as that of the device. For applications designed to handle screen rotation, longest side of the scan window should fit within both the screen width and screen height. If the viewfinder position fails to be applied, query the log file to see which parameter is causing trouble or reposition the window away from the edges of the screen.

Scanning and Camera Interaction

In some device configurations the scanner and camera share the same hardware. Where two modules share the same physical hardware they cannot be enabled simultaneously, in this circumstance once the scanner is enabled it must be disabled before the camera can be used, and vice versa.

Get Scanner Properties

On WM/CE, it is first necessary to enable the scanner before most of the properties can be retrieved. The case of scanner properties will differ across platforms. On WM/CE, some of the scanner properties are not exposed to set but can be retrieved. On Android, only supported scanner properties can be retrieved in "getAllProperties" method.

Set Scanner Properties

On WM/CE, for some properties, it is first necessary to apply those properties before enabling the scanner.

Android Camera Barcode limitation

As google barcode scanning library(Zxing library) supported only in Landscape mode. Barcode scanning window only appears at centre of screen in Landscape mode.

Devices lacking support

This API is not available on the following Zebra Technologies devices and/or platform(s):

• VH10 CE 6.0

Note: The legacy scanner service can be enabled and can perform some barcode scans.

Examples

Enable scanner, scan a bacrode

This example shows how to enable a device's barcode scanner and access the data gathered by the scanner. Note that this example assumes that ebapi-modules.js file is in the same folder as the HTML invoking it. DataWedge must be disabled for Enterprise Browser to access any scanners.
