Hello
I follow the samples and have a working app to scan barcodes on two different activities.
If the TC51 is connected via cable, everything is working fine.
*) Scanning in Activity 1
*) Scanning in Activity 2
*) Screen OFF (hardware button: off)
*) Screen ON (hardware button: on)
*) Scanning in Activity 2
*) Scanning in Activity 1
=> works
If the TC51 is NOT connected via cable, after Screen ON event I get no scan result
*) Scanning in Activity 1
*) Scanning in Activity 2
*) Screen OFF (hardware button: off)
*) Screen ON (hardware button: on)
*) Scanning in Activity 2 NOT WORKING scanner state log output seems to be correct
*) Scanning in Activity 1 NOT WORKING scanner state log output seems to be correct
If i have a valid scan i see two lights on top of the device (one smaller orange one, one bigger red one)
If i turn the screen off without connected cable only the smaller organge one is visible - the other one is not working. To get the second one working I have to restart the app.
What can be the reason for this behavior?

How are you handling scanner integration? DataWedge or the EMDK? You may consider switching to DataWedge based "integration" if using the EMDK.
Hello
Im using the EMDK.
I dont know if it is possible to use DataWedge for my use case (?)
I have to initiate the scan mechanism on two (or more) different screens by hardware button and the user should not have to create a profile manually (only app install should be to do at users side)
Is this "orange light and no red light" thing a bug in EMDK?
