Barcode Utility

Use the Barcode Utility app supplied with the Movfast device to set various scanning parameters.

Glink will switch the Function settings->Barcode data output mode parameter in the Barcode Utility app to Output to broadcast when the main Glink display has the focus and switch to Output to keyboard when focus is lost since most other applications support the latter mode only.

Pass Scan Key Value parameter

Please note that when a scan key is pressed on some Movfast devices, a key code is sent to Glink. Glink will handle this as normal key input and send it to the host application. Turn off the parameter Function settings->Pass Scan Key Value to avoid this behavior.

Show on status line

Make sure the parameter Show on status line is enabled to see scanned data received with Data intent on the status line at the bottom of the Glink screen. When this parameter is not enabled or scanned data is received as simulated keyboard input, you will only see the scanned barcode in the emulator screen.
