LOCUS - SoundVision Integration
The screen snapshot below shows the SoundVision menu to
integrate with local systems
On the lefthand side 5 main options for integration can be
found:
- Com port
- DataBase
- File
- KB Wedge
- Script
Com port
The COM port option provides the means to manipulate the
data sent to the Host via the RS 232 port when a successful
read occurs
Data Base
The On Read Database option provides the facility
to port the read data directly to an SQL database located
either on this PC or another networked processor. To enter
the data into this database you will require both the
correct Connection String text and the SQL Statement both of
which can be provided by your Network Administrator. Using
the Test buttons located next to each of the text entry
windows can test the correct functioning of both of these
elements
File
The File option provides the means to transfer the read
data, plus defined header and trailer text, to a text file
(.txt) for processing by a third party application. You can
select whether data can create a new file in a folder that
you designate using the usual file reference string or add
the read data to an existing file or fully overwrite a file.
KB Wedge
A keyboard wedge functionality is an interface that
translate data read by a device other than a keyboard, such
as a magnetic strip or bar code reader into keyboard data.
The KeyBoard wedge option in the LOCUS-SoundVision system
provides the possibility to manipulate the data sent to a
keyboard wedge
Script/Active X
The Script option provides the means to define a short piece
of Visual Basic code that will be executed on the event of a
Read/No Read.
The SoundVision SW ActiveX control allows users to write
custom DataMatrix reading applications using programming
languages such as Visual Basic
VB Scripting provides the flexibility to customize your
reading application far beyond the standard configuration
tools available in SoundVision. Two events can execute 2
different VBScripts, when a read is successful and when a
read is unsuccessful.

system to SoundVision
