ZebraScannerWrapperCSharp 1.0.0

Zebra Scanner Wrapper For C# .NET CORE 8

This C# class libary is built around the zebra core scanner driver which is avaliable as a COM object from: https://techdocs.zebra.com/dcs/scanners/sdk-windows/about/

Demonstration app:

This wrapper provides the following:

• Object abstractions of the xml based C API.
• Custom LED mangement indicating whether a scanner is enabled or disabled.
• Centralised management of all connected scanners included nested scanners.
• Live scale weight support for scales (implemented with polling).
• Event based callbacks for PNP, barcodes, scale weight.

Supported Scanner Commands:

• Enable / Disable
• SetLEDColor
• PlayBeep
• Pull / Release Trigger
• Reboot Scanner
• Aim On / Off
• Scale Zero
• Scale Reset
• Scale Weight

Tested with:

• Zebra MP7001
• Zebra DS4608
• Zebra MS4717

Basic Setup:

//Create the manager, this will need to be accessed wherever you need to call commands to the manager or scanners
_manager = new ScannerManager(ScannerManager.DefaultSupportedScannerTypes, true, true);

//Register any events that you would like to recieve, you can add many different callbacks for different areas of your application.
//can be removed by calling UnRegister*CallbackName*(function)
_manager.RegisterPNPCallback(RecievePnp);                             //RecievePnp(PNPData pnpData)
_manager.RegisterBarcodeCallback(RecieveScan);                        //RecieveScan(ScanData scanData) 
_manager.RegisterWeightCallback(RecieveWeightLive);                   //RecieveWeightLive(WeightData weight)
_manager.RegisterLiveWeightStatusCallback(RecieveLiveWeightStatus);   //RecieveLiveWeightStatus(bool enabled)

Using Scanners

  Scanner scan = _manager.GetScannerBySerialNumber("*SerialNumber*");
  //OR
  Scanner scan = _manager.GetScannerByModelNumber("*ModelNumber*");
  //Or get one from the list of scanners by calling _manager.GetScanners();

  ScannerResponse resp = scan.SetEnabled(true);
  //OR
  ScannerResponse resp = _manager.SetEnabledScanner(scan, true);
  //OR for all scanners
  List<ScannerResponse> responses = _manager.SetEnabledAllScanners(true);

Checking Scanner Responses

  //all responses can be found at https://techdocs.zebra.com/dcs/scanners/sdk-windows/appendix/ 
  if(resp.Response == ScannerStatus.SUCCESS)
  {
    
  }
  //resp.Scanner provides the scanner this response came from if going through a list of responses. 

Get Scale Weight

  ScannerResponse response = scan.GetScaleWeight();
    if (response.Response == ScannerStatus.SUCCESS)
    {
      WeightData? data = (WeightData?)response.ResponseData;
      if (data != null)
      {
        Console.WriteLine(data.Weight + data.WeightUnit.ToString());
      }
    }
