Hi.
I am tring this code: http://techdocs.zebra.com/emdk-for-xamarin/3-0/tutorial/barcodeapitutor…
Basic Scanning Tutorial using Barcode API - Zebra Technologies Techdocs
It seems to work but I have an exception here:
try { //Get the feature object such as BarcodeManager object for accessing the feature. barcodeManager = (BarcodeManager)emdkManager.GetInstance(EMDKManager.FEATURE_TYPE.Barcode); scanner = barcodeManager.GetDevice(BarcodeManager.DeviceIdentifier.Default); if (scanner != null) { //Attahch the Data Event handler to get the data callbacks. scanner.Data += scanner_Data; //Attach Scanner Status Event to get the status callbacks. scanner.Status += scanner_Status; scanner.Enable(); //EMDK: Configure the scanner settings ScannerConfig config = scanner.GetConfig(); config.SkipOnUnsupported = ScannerConfig.SkipOnUnSupported.None; config.ScanParams.DecodeLEDFeedback = true; config.ReaderParams.ReaderSpecific.ImagerSpecific.PickList = ScannerConfig.PickList.Enabled; config.DecoderParams.Code39.Enabled = true; config.DecoderParams.Code128.Enabled = false; scanner.SetConfig(config); } else { displayStatus("Failed to enable scanner.\n"); } } catch (ScannerException e) { displayStatus("Error: " + e.Message); }
When the execution reach scanner.SetConfig, I receive an exception:
Already scanning. Wait for current scanning to complete
I don't understand which could be the problem, but in this way the configuration is not accepted.
Thanks

Have same problem.
As I understood the reason of this exception is that our scanner is in IDLE state and tries to read while we try to set config.
I just cancel reading before configuring scanner and add small delay to allow scanner change his state on WAITING.
...
scanner?.let {
it.cancelRead()
try {
Thread.sleep(500)
} catch (e: Exception) {
e.printStackTrace()
}
if (it.isEnabled && !it.isReadPending) {
//EMDK: Configure the scanner settings
...
}
}
May be it can help.
Hi!
I have the same problem too. I also used the same example. For business needs I can't use continuous reading. Any possible solution?
thanks to all
Hi !
Same problem here. Do you found a solution without enabling continuous reading ?
thanks
Hi, can you please try with the barcode sample: samples-emdkforxamarin-3_0/BarcodeSample1 at master · Zebra/samples-emdkforxamarin-3_0 · GitHub . To get that sample to compile you will also need to include the EMDK component from Nuget.
