This feature is currently available via our support channel and only for Android devices. We will enable the hardware button for you.
- Please reach out to us via the webform, specifying the following information. The device model (e.g. SM-G715U for Xcover Pro)
- The email address of your Scandit account
- Your target Scandit Express project
- The desired button key code
Please note that every hardware button has a different key code. You can identify the key code with key code identifier apps available in the Play Store (such as KeyEvent Display).
Here are some common keycodes:
Device | Button | Key Code |
Samsung XCover | Extra Hardware Button | 1015 |
Samsung XCover6 Pro | Extra Hardware Button | 1015 |
After the change has been applied to your configuration, please do not forget to reload Scandit Express configuration on the devices.(See How is an updated configuration distributed to the devices?)
Please note, to scan with the hardware button the input field has to be in focus (i.e. the keyboard needs to be open).
