Seuic scanner options

Glink will by default use Broadcast as the Barcode Send Model parameter. Use the Scan tool app to set additional barcode parameters.

Barcode Send Model

Glink switches the Barcode Send Model parameter to Broadcast when Glink is running in foreground. When Glink leaves the foreground state, Glink switches the Barcode Send Model parameter to Focus.

Broadcast

This model sends scanned data to the Glink app using data intents. Normally there is no need to modify the Intent action and Intents string extra parameters below. However, if one of the parameters below is modified, Glink will not switch the Barcode Send Model to Focus when Glink leaves the foreground state.

Intent action
This parameter sets the Broadcast name. Glink sets this parameter to no.gar.glink.data and resets it to com.android.server.scannerservice.broadcast when Glink leaves the foreground state. If this parameter is changed, Glink will use the parameter and not reset it when Glink leaves the foreground state.

Intent string extra
This parameter sets the Key name. Glink sets this parameter to scannerdata if the parameter is empty. If this parameter is changed, Glink will use the parameter and not reset it when Glink leaves the foreground state.

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.
