Angular Start/Stop Scanner

Hello,
I'm starting an Angular project and need to be able to stop the scanner beam on invalid scans. And then restart the beam. A soft scan trigger. I have experience with C# and using the EMDK. But implementing it in Angular is new to me. What is the best route for this? Will I need to use the Datawedge API? Any suggestions or examples would be very helpful!

Hi,
You have a couple of options:

Use Enterprise Browser, please see this post: https://developer.zebra.com/community/home/blog/2019/03/05/javascript-f…;
Use DataWedge with keystrokes, please see this post: https://developer.zebra.com/blog/listening-keypress-events-datawedge&nb…;
Use DataWedge and capture data into input fields, see the official docs for Keystroke output: https://techdocs.zebra.com/datawedge/8-2/guide/output/keystroke/

Most Angular developers I have seen have opted for the second approach above.
Hope that helps.
