Scanner Function Overview

The scanner contains a buffer to hold the data from a scan.

The application should contain a buffer of its own if it needs to

save the data before scanning again. Processing works as

follows:

1. Initiate the scan, putting the data in the scanner buffer with

either scnGets or scnTrigger.

2. Either:

Process the data directly in the scanner buffer with

scnGetch, scnGetche, scnGetBarCodeType, or

scnScannerHit.

Save the data in the application buffer with scnGets

(continued from step 1) or scnGetScannedData.

The application buffer must be one byte

longer than the largest string that you may

scan.

3. If needed, process the data in the application buffer.

NOTE: Every bar code that the SE-923 scanner is configured

for delays boot-up by .7 seconds. This does not apply

to the SE-923HS scanner.
