Barcode Scanner Terminal on Windows Pc

Scan a bar code and do one of the following:

- validate against and store it in an Excel spreadsheet
- store it in plain files on your device for later processing
- send it to your own backend server for validation (optionally also storing locally)
- send it to a Google Docs spreadsheet
- send it directly to your PC

When validating against an Excel spreadsheet it will check if the barcode exists as well as if the barcode has been scanned more times than max allowed. If both conditions are fulfilled the timestamp for the scan is stored within the spreadsheet.

When sending to a backend server it connects through the HTTP protocol over Wi-Fi or cell phone network. The server response is processed by the app. The response can be plain text or HTML code, or even a URL to a web page, which will be shown on the screen. If you don't do programming yourself you can still send barcodes to the cloud by sending them to a Google Docs spreadsheet.

By using a free application (PC Connector) that requires no install you can send the barcodes to your PC and for example have them entered on an Excel spreadsheet or in a text input field on a form on a web page. Alternatively you can use it to send any kind of command to your PC - contact us for more info.

When storing to the device it stores the data in JSON files, which are both machine readable and easy to read by a human. The app remembers which barcodes have been sent to the server and which haven't. You have full access to the raw data. Any barcodes that haven't yet been sent to the server can be sent in batch mode when you are online. Also options to export to Excel and CSV. We guarantee you will always have full flexibility to do what you need with your data.

You can also use an external (eg. USB or Bluetooth) hand-held or table scanner if preferred.

Optionally you can store/send the GPS location, indication of in/out scan, and a number (eg. quantity) together with the barcode.
This app is perfect for validation of tickets or registration of participants for an event, as an inventory scanner, scanning of product barcodes or whatever data you want to collect and process. It provides you with full flexibility of what you want to do with the barcodes.

See docs (link below) for further details. If you need any other features, development of customized systems, please contact us. We also offer full scale access control systems with turnstiles.
