DataWedge
DataWedge is a utility that adds advanced bar code scanning capability to any application without writing code. It
runs in the background and handles the interface to built-in bar code scanners. The captured bar code data is
converted to keystrokes and sent to the target application as if it was typed on the keypad.
To configure DataWedge refer to the ET1 Integrator Guide.
