Can i use this as a scanner for my system i am planning to develop? Also is it for free or i need to pay for full access?
Sounds Great !
Can we do some editing on scanned barcode before it's typed on computer?
Like if we want to insert several (physical) barcodes as one item (in computer)
Yes, you can do that by using the [JAVASCRIPT FUNCTION] component, see this: barcodetopc.com/tutorial/how-to-use-the-javascript-function-component/
To acquire multiple barcodes you can add more [BARCODE] components to the Output template, see this: barcodetopc.com/tutorial/how-to-create-output-templates/
I hope it helps!
Is there something similar from you but via Bluetooth? I cannot use WiFi in my case, so the only way is to use Bluetooth :-)
What if I want to put the barcode read by 'barcode to pc' android app to a field active in any app or pc based computer program done in visual foxpro?
Certainly! Barcode to PC does just that, types the barcodes inside desktop programs. If you need to install the server to an older Windows version, download the v3.18.1 from the version archive: barcodetopc.com/download/
nice
hello does it have a feature to remove stock from inventory by just scanning it
You can use the CSV_UPDATE component to change the values inside a csv file: barcodetopc.com/output-template/how-to-use-the-csv_update-component/
So the final Output template would look like this:
[BARCODE] [CSV_LOOKUP] [JAVASCRIPT_FUNCTION] [CSV_UPDATE]
Where:
- the CSV_LOOKUP is used to read the current value,
- the JAVASCRIPT_FUNCTION is used to compute the new value, using this code: parseInt(csv_lookup) - 1
- the CSV_UPDATE writes the new value inside the csv file
Also how can the phone send feed to the PC from the field to the office.
Hi,
please contact support@barcodetopc.com and describe your use case
I am not able to simulate the scanning in SAP B1. What may be wrong? thx
If the keyboard emulation isn't working try to close the server from the tray icon, and open it again with administrator privileges by right-clicking the icon
Hello, can you use Barcode to PC without any network? I mean, only using an USB wire.
unfortunately, the network is required, but you can use the smartphone itself to create a personal hotspot network and connect the computer to it. (It should work also with USB Tethering)
For iPhone see this: support.apple.com/en-us/HT204023#sections:~:text=go%20to%20Settings%20%3E%20Cellular%20%3E,and%20make%20sure%20that%20it's%20on
For Android see this: support.google.com/android/answer/9059108?hl=en#483127E:~:text=Turn%20on%20your%20hotspot
how many code scan free
Hi, can I use this for commercial purposes? I am building an accounting software. Also, how can I access the barcode numbers from python (if supported at all?) I am assuming I could access it if the information is stored in one of the folders within the Barcode to PC server file
Thank You
Yes, you can use the RUN component as explained here: barcodetopc.com/tutorial/how-to-use-the-run-output-component/
is it able to scan the Italian Fiscal Check Lottery barcode?
Se non sbaglio dovrebbero essere dei QR-Code, quindi si
i install this program but i cant install on my iphone pro 14 said is not available to this country o region
What country are you in? Can you please provide more information at support@barcodebyte.com? Thanks
does it work also on microsoft access? need a trial on my studies. thanks
Yes it will work with any program installed on your computer
Can’t read 18-digit code. I don’t know, maybe my camera isn’t clear enough, but it works on 13-digit code.
Hello, the standard version of Barcode to PC supports EAN-13 only. Our enterprise version has more scanning capabilities, please reach us at support@barcodebyte.com
I install in my Windows 11 and Android Samsung Galaxy S21, but is not pairing. Says connecting but never connects
Most of the time it’s the antivirus or firewall that it’s blocking the connection. Try to temporarily pause them and then when you identify what was blocking the connection add Barcode to PC to the exceptions lists.
Windows firewall instructions: barcodetopc.com/tutorial/configure-windows-firewall/
If it still doesn't work, perhaps it's because your router creates two different networks for the 2.4 and 5 GHz bands and doesn't allow communication between them.
It may also happen that the networks have the exact same name, so a solution could be to disable the auto-join option for the 5 GHz network on both the computer and smartphone and use only the 2.4 GHz.
Let me know if it works,
I can't save the cvs data. It's gone when you close the excel
If you use Keyboard Emulation you have to save it as an ordinary excel file.
Otherwise see this: barcodetopc.com/csv-files/3-ways-to-save-scans-to-csv-files/
Can you scan just numbers?
Yes, you can make it acquire numbers using the smartphone keyboard using the NUMBER component, and remove the BARCODE one if you don't need it. Please reach out at support@barcodebyte.com for better assistance.
Hey it works great for pc. But not with my software (busy 18 )
Try to run the server as administrator
Can It's use in telly software???
Yes, some users are already using it, you just need to create an output template to simulate the correct key sequence
Pc server is not downloading..... What should i do
Here it is a mirror: www.dropbox.com/s/1la9h1og9ob13x8/barcode-to-pc-server.v3.0.3.win.setup.zip?dl=1
Extract everything in the same folder
is it available for free ?
Can i connect it to excel?
Absolutely, you can do that by using Keyboard Emulation: docs.barcodetopc.com/keyboard-emulation/
is it work on Excel also?
Yes, since it simulates the keyboard you can use it with any program.
In addition there is also an option to export the barcodes all at once as a CSV file, and import them on excel.
I still use the free application and it's only 300 scans in 1 month, if it's 300x it's no longer working?
I also searching for same question
It will reset itself next month, meaning you can use it for free indefinitely
Can use this application and software offline
Yes, you can scan offline, and sync it later with the server using the Sync button inside the scan session page
can we use this software for QR code?
Yes, it works with QR code
Sir it's not working.....not connecting to PC server
First thing make you sure that the smartphone and PC are connected to the same Wi-Fi network, and then try to pause all antivirus/firewall software.
Once you identify what's blocking the connection, add the server to the exceptions list.
Also check Windows Firewall as explained here: barcodetopc.com/tutorial/configure-windows-firewall/
