The EMDK mentions that it supports the RS6100:
https://techdocs.zebra.com/emdk-for-android/11-0/guide/about/#scannersandimagers
Yet the documentation for DeviceIdentifier does not contain a new a constant like BLUETOOTH_IMAGER_RS6100:
https://techdocs.zebra.com/emdk-for-android/11-0/api/reference/com/symbol/emdk/barcode/barcodemanager.deviceidentifier
What is the trick to getting the RS6100 Scanner from BarcodeManager.getDevice()?
Thanks!

Hi Gilbert.
The RS6100 is a fairly new Scanner device / platform.
Some editions of Zebra Android + the Lifeguard update (CFE) may not recognize the RS6100.
For Example TC77 running Android 10 with a CFE Lower than U120 - may have issues - but when updated to CFE U138 - will support the RS6100.
For the Zebra device you are testing the EMDK upon - for the RS6100 - what is the Build Number - found under "About Phone" setting menu?
Sean,
Thanks for the comment. I am trying to add support for the RS6100 to an existing product. We already have support for the RS6000.
The EMDK BarcodeManager API does not seem to have full support for the RS6100, updating the OS seems unlikely to fix an missing enumeration in the EMDK API.
