Honeywell scanners does not use the wedge. However it is possible to change the behaviour of the scanner in the start.cfg file.

  <!-- SCANNER -->
  <scanner>
    <type>internal</type>
	...
     <scanEngineProperties>
      <scanEngineProperty key="key1" value="value1" />
      <scanEngineProperty key="key2" value="value2" />
    </scanEngineProperties>
  </scanner>

Finding and changing the scanner parameters

...

<scanEngineProperties>
    <scanEngineProperty key="DEC_QR_ENABLED" value="true" />
</scanEngineProperties>

Hint: this could also be: .... key="QrCodeEnabled" value="true" ...

To find the parameter to change the wedge settings can be used to see the different parameters and options:

Commonly used:

<scanEngineProperties>
  <scanEngineProperty key="DEC_EAN13_CHECK_DIGIT_TRANSMITEan13CheckDigitTransmitEnabled" value="true" />  
</scanEngineProperties> 

Use this table to find the key for a parameter:

...

...

here the code will translate the Ean13CheckDigitTransmitEnabled to DEC_EAN13_CHECK_DIGIT_TRANSMIT.

How to use the ScanEngineProperties keys and values:

To set up a scan property you need to find a name or value in the BarcodeReader.SettingKeys table and then find a name or value in the BarcodeReader.SettingValues table.

Eg.

Here the name column is used:

<scanEngineProperty key="TriggerScanMode" value="TriggerScanMode_ReadOnSecondTriggerPress"/>

Here the value column is used:

<scanEnginePropertykey="TRIG_SCAN_MODE"value="readOnSecondTriggerPress"/>

We have support for both ways of applying the setting. However we recommend using the name column.

Imager settings

To help with challenging lighting and distance you can customize the imager settings on a CT60 Flexrange like this:

    <scanEngineProperties>      
      <scanEngineProperty key="IMG_EXPOSURE_MODE" value="autoExposure"/>
      <scanEngineProperty key="IMG_FLICKER" value="true"/>
      <scanEngineProperty key="IMG_OVERRIDE_RECOMMENDED_VALUES" value="true"/>
    </scanEngineProperties>

If the customer has very reflective barcodes for example, if they are laminated then you can use this setting to help them:

    <scanEngineProperties>      
      <scanEngineProperty key="IMG_ILLUM_INTENSITY" value="50"/>
      <scanEngineProperty key="IMG_OVERRIDE_RECOMMENDED_VALUES" value="true"/>
    </scanEngineProperties> 

Testing a scanner set up:

For testing purpose and to find out how to set up the scanner you can consider using "Scan demo" provided by Honeywell in the "Demos" app.
