RFID / FX7500 : How to code a app as "Power Session"

1bfce8dd-d9a0-438b-888f-6eedbef61394 Jun 13, 2017 2:19 PM

Hi,

i'm a newbie

I wish to start with the realization of an application like PowerSession,

So e regularly scan an FX7500 and read the tags in the antenna field.

My application will run under Win 7/10 (32 or 64).

What languages / SDK are required to build a compiled application (.EXE)?

I do not want to use Java.

Thanks in advance

Best regards

Greetings,

A great resource for beginning programming for the FX7500 can be found on the product support page:

FX7500 Fixed RFID Reader Support & Downloads | Zebra

The EMDKs for .NET, C and Java each provide API and sample code that developers can use to create applications similar to Power Session.

Cheers

  Thanks,
  
  But the VB samples are to use with Visual Basic 2008 Express ? Visual Basic 2010 Express ?
  
  because, i have a lot of error as : "Handles clause requires a WithEvents variable defined in the containing type or one of its base types "
  
  in "VB_RFID3_Host_Sample1"
  
  Private Sub configToolStripMenuItem_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles configToolStripMenuItem.Click
  
  best regards

    VS 2010 is not supported. According to the release notes, VB.NET 2005 or 2008 should work using .NET 3.5. I recommend using C# under both 2005 and 2008 if possible.

      ok,
      with VB.NET 2005 + SP1
      + EMDK
      + emdk-m-020802
      + MotorolaEMDKforDOTNET-V28-UPD5-FX7500-HOSTPROG
      + emdk-m-020900
      
      I can rebuild the sample project ;-)
      
      but if i modify a menu item always the same error message :
      
      but to resolve : just replace in declaration
           Private aboutToolStripMenuItem As ToolStripMenuItem
      by
           Friend WithEvents aboutToolStripMenuItem As ToolStripMenuItem
      
      and affect the right "sub" to the right event for each control
      
      Private Sub connectionToolStripMenuItem_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As EventArgs) Handles connectionToolStripMenuItem.Click
                  Me.m_ConnectionForm.ShowDialog(Me)
      End Sub
      
      Now, i just to obtain a demonstration material to try to do my application ;-)
      
      Thanks
