Hi,
Everything is in the title !
Let's say I manually pair a RS507 barcode scanner to a SAMSUNG XCover 2.
For EMDK to work on the SAMSUNG, the SAMSUNG would need to have the EMDK libraries.
Is there a solution (even a paying one) to include those files on a device other than a Zebra device ?
Thanks.
Is there a way to make 'EMDK for Android' work with devices other than Zebra's (Symbol) ?// Expert user has replied. |

Hi,
Short answer is no. EMDK relies on the MX (mobility extensions) layer (Mobility Extensions (Mx) ) which is unique to Zebra devices only. MX essentially runs on top of Android OS and enables enterprise features.
On a Samsung device, it should be possible to get the data from RS507 as a HID device. Have you tried that?
Thank you Ritesh and Happy New Year !
Yes, I know I can get the data from the RS507 set as HID device. It's working fine.
What I wanted to be able to, was to programmatically make the RS507 do things like trigger a beep, trigger a light alert (using the rear light), stop scanning, restart scanning or whatever is possible to do with it.
Unfortunately, I must live with the fact that it is not possible.
Thanks anyway
