Function Prototype
Parameters
The structure of the broadcast intent that resolves to the soft scan is:
ACTION [String]: "com.symbol.datawedge.api.ACTION"
EXTRA_DATA [String]: "com.symbol.datawedge.api.SOFT_SCAN_TRIGGER"
<parameter>: The parameter as a string, using any of the following:
• START_SCANNING - starts scanning when triggered
• STOP_SCANNING - stops or interrupts scanning when triggered
• TOGGLE_SCANNING - toggles between START_SCANNING and STOP_SCANNING when triggered.
Scanner Input Plugin
The ScannerInputPlugin API command can be used to enable/disable the scanner plug-in being used by the
currently active Profile. Disabling the scanner plug-in effectively disables scanning in that Profile, regardless of
whether the Profile is associated or unassociated. Valid only when Barcode Input is enabled in the active
Profile.
NOTE: Use of this API changes only the runtime status of the scanner; it does not make persistent changes to the Profile.
