First make sure that a recommended application is installed on the device.
Start a scanner
- Press one of the optical code scanning buttons in the context aware action bar or in the start screen.
Scan an optical code
- Position the device in a way that the optical code is visible and stable in the camera view;
- Wait until the optical code is recognized by the scanner.
Wait for the search to finish
- Once the scan is finished, wait until the scanner is closed and an empty browser shows up;
- Depending on the network connection and the UBIK® sync mode, different ways of searching will be applied;
- During the search, the list might show a searching text before any objects are found;
- If any objects are found, they will be added to the list.
