Scanner Configuration

You will need to configure your scanner, and configure Chromium to work with the correct scanner.

With this page open, find an item with a bar code and scan it. It doesn’t have to be an inventory item, testing any bar code will work.

After a scan, the testing page will show the values that were scanned. If everything was successful, you should see a Scan Detected message at the top. The log should show a Scanning Ended line.
