Properties

Capabilities

Gets the capabilities of the specified barcode scanner.

DeviceId

Gets the DeviceInformation.Id of the barcode scanner.

VideoDeviceId

Retrieves the video device ID which represents the camera lens associated with the claimed barcode scanner. (Not supported on mobile platforms)

Methods

CheckHealthAsync(UnifiedPosHealthCheckLevel)

Tests the state of the barcode scanner.

ClaimScannerAsync()

Attempts to get an exclusive access to the barcode scanner.

Close()

Close the barcode scanner session, allowing it to be claimed by another client. For C++ and JavaScript, use Close(). For C# and Visual Basic, use Dispose().

Dispose()

Performs application-defined tasks associated with freeing, releasing, or resetting unmanaged resources.

FromIdAsync(String)

Creates BarcodeScanner object from the DeviceInformation.Id.

GetDefaultAsync()

Returns the first available barcode scanner.

GetDeviceSelector()

Gets an Advanced Query Syntax (AQS) string that you can use to list the available barcode scanners.

GetDeviceSelector(PosConnectionTypes)

Gets an Advanced Query Syntax (AQS) string that you can use to list the barcode scanners available over the specified connection types

GetSupportedProfiles()

Gets the list of profiles supported by the barcode scanner.

Important

This API applies only to Build 10240 and Build 10586 of the Windows Mobile device family (Windows Mobile Extensions for the UWP). This API doesn't apply to the Windows Desktop device family, nor to other device families, nor to builds of Windows Mobile other than 10240 and 10586. When called on an operating system (OS) to which it doesn't apply, the behavior of this API is undefined. For more info about device families, see Device family extension SDKs and API contracts.

GetSupportedSymbologiesAsync()

Gets the symbologies supported by the claimed barcode scanner.

IsProfileSupported(String)

Determines whether the profile is supported.

IsSymbologySupportedAsync(UInt32)

Determines whether the specified symbology is supported by the barcode scanner.

RetrieveStatisticsAsync(IIterable<String>)

Retrieves the requested statistics from the barcode scanner.

Events

StatusUpdated

Occurs when the barcode scanner detects an operation status change.
