Data Output
There are three options for data output after decoding:
 Keyboard Emulation
- Data is emulated as typed text and sent to the
active Window.
- Simply run your application or Pocket PC
built-in program, such as Pocket Excel, to
start with data collection.
 Windows Message
- Data is encapsulated in a Windows message
(WM_COPYDATA).
- Retrieve the WM_COPYDATA message in
your application.
- The decoded data is passed to your application
through the lParam parameter.
 Windows Event
- Whenever the reader reads a barcode, a
Windows event object named “DecodeEvent”
will be signaled and the data will be stored in
the Windows message queue.
- Need to create an event object named
“DecodeEvent” in your application so that the
ReaderCfg utility can signal your application
using this event object.
- Call Windows API (ReadMsgQueue) in your
application to retrieve the decoded data.
*Sample programs are provided for Windows Message
& Event programming. For details, please contact
CipherLab technical support team.
