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.
 |
From version 2.4.3 on, the context sensitive action bar doesn't contain the scanning buttons anymore. Instead, the scanning menu can be found in the navigation drawer (to be opened by clicking on the app's icon). |
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.
