Go into the datawedge and add a delay between keystrokes. 5ms should be about right. Basically you want to slow it down a little. This worked for us.

Subject: [Vantage] Barcode problem - Epicor 905.700C

Hello,

When I scan a code that begins with a letter, that first letter is dropped in the Epicor software. However the same barcode scanned with the same scanner in any other program is fine.

For example, I scan a barcode "X12B2" and I get "12B2". I can manually enter the whole code and it is accepted. I tested this in several fields in several functions and it seems it just doesn't like leading alpha characters.

I tested with Code 39 and Code 128. I am using a Motorola 9090 with WM 6.1 and Datawedge software.

Does anyone know a solution to this, or has anyone else experienced this?

Never seen that. I assume, since you're using a MC9090 that you are running
the handheld module? So if you open Notepad on the scanner and you scan the
various barcodes you're having problems with; do they scan accurately into
Notepad?



This just started happening or has it always been happening?



I always used ScanWedge from Symbol (Moto bought Symbol). I have a copy of
it if you'd like to try; I can email it to you if interested.

Hi Vic,

Yes, scanning to other applications is fine.

If you can send me a copy of ScanWedge I would very much like to try it. I looked for it before but did not find it.

Much thanks,

- Neil
