Flow of the Button Manager setting
The Button Manager can directly handle an AL-xxxx (where xxxx is the model name 
of your unit) series device event and start your selected application according to the 
scan setting made on the AL-xxxx (where xxxx is the model name of your unit)  
operation panel (SC1, SC2, SC3, SC4, SC5, SC6).
This will scan directly into your application from the device.
The settings for the Windows Event Manager for 
the SHARP AL-xxxx (where xxxx is the model 
name of your unit) device allow the user to take 
advantage of the Sharp Button Manager to take 
control of events from Windows and send 
scanned images to any application that can be 
selected in Button Manager.
This can be done with the Windows OS showing 
the Event Manager selection dialog or directly 
into a selected application if the Button Manager 
is the only allowed handler for device events 
from the SHARP AL-xxxx (where xxxx is the 
model name of your unit).
This is done by changing the Windows device 
settings for the AL-xxxx (where xxxx is the model 
name of your unit) in the Scanner and Camera 
device settings in the Control Panel.
