It is also possible to use on the data collection terminals with Android OS.
• Application Features

Unique "Keyboard output" - transfer of the barcode list to any accounting program, without any settings - the program will "think" that the barcodes are read to it from the physical scanner, only very quickly, with a speed of up to 50 barcodes per second.

• This application is not intended to replace a conventional barcode scanner, or a data collection terminal, but is intended to prove to you that it is possible to do the same with it more conveniently and quickly. Moreover, the possibilities of using it are broader and limited only by your imagination. You just need to start using it. Reduction of the time of habitual work is 2-3 times more than real.
• To get started, you need to install the application on your computer and smartphone and make a binding by counting the code with your smartphone from your computer. This is necessary for the smartphone and computer to know where to send data.
• An unlimited number of smartphones can be tied to one computer, which allows you to conduct group work.
• If you press a long tap on + or - in the smartphone, you can set the quantity manually, even for a weighted product.
• Lists can be renamed as on the computer (double click on the list), so and on the smartphone (long tap on the header, in the open list). You can also set in the parameters on the smartphone "Begin the new list name with :", then all the lists of the DCT will start with this text + the current date and time.
• On the computer, you can combine an unlimited number of lists. It's useful when several people simultaneously calculate a large object. Instead of several documents, you will get one, consolidated. Select several lists and click the "Merge" button.
• If you sent the Catalog (Parameters tab) to the smartphone, then in any mode of operation (scanner, DCT, Recalculation of goods), when reading the barcode, the information about the product will be displayed. Some customers use this in the work of sellers, those in turn, when reading, simply watch the information about the product.
• You can search on the smartphone on the Internet using a barcode, or an name (information about a product and its image). You need to do a long tap on position and choose a search on the Internet from the menu.
• You can use the hardware volume buttons on the smartphone, the "volume up" - the start of scanning, the "volume down" - the input of a barcode, this greatly speeds up the work. Also for acceleration you can use "Automatic camera scan mode".
• To barcoding goods - in the "Recalculation of goods" mode, send to the phone a column with only names, on the phone a long tap at the position - reading barcode from the camera, or from a physical scanner, then immediately long tap at another position, reading, etc. As a result, you will get a comparison of your products with barcodes.
• In Barcode Scanner mode, the computer emulates the physical barcode scanner and outputs the barcode to any program. Perhaps it is difficult to understand - it's like you typed barcode symbols on the keyboard and pressed the Enter. By the same principle, "keyboard output" works.
• In WIFI mode, make sure that the application on your smartphone found the ip address of your computer, if this field is empty in the Parameters, enter ip manually and make sure that the firewall does not block the connection from the phone.
• In any mode, the proximity sensor works. If you connect a physical bar code scanner (OTG USB) to the phone and put the phone in a dark place, for example in a case, or in a pocket, the screen will go out and the control will be blocked, protecting against accidental clicks. When reading barcode, the phone will "Beep", each peak means that the bar code is written into the phone's memory, and even if the phone hangs up, or, for example, it reboots, your bar code will not disappear anywhere. You will open the list and continue after the last reading.
• If you have multiple items associated with one barcode, check the corresponding option on the smartphone, now you will be given a choice when reading barcode.
• If you have multiple barcodes associated with one nomenclature, then when you create a list, specify them in one position, separated by a comma.
• You can use the application without reading the barcodes on the smartphone, for this in the "Recalculation of goods" mode, filter the list by the phrase, allocate positions with a long tap and specify the quantity.
• If you put a check on "Manually adding unknown barcodes to the Recalculation of goods", then when reading a bar code that is not in the list, a signal will sound, a message will appear, and you can either continue the work or add a name to this barcode and add it in the list, such positions will be marked with symbols (!).
• Postfix and prefix are symbols (including special ones) that are displayed before and after the output of the barcode, you can specify several characters separated by commas. For example, you need to press F1 in your program, a window will open, in which you need to enter a barcode, go for example to the second button in the window (with the Tab key) and press "Enter" - then the prefix will be "F1", and the postfix "Tab, Enter." And if you still need, for example, before the bar code enter the word "This", and at the end of the "Barcode", then the prefix will be «F1,T,h,i,s» and the postfix «B,a,r,c,o,d,e,Tab,Enter»
