How do I configure my Android device to perform an Enter action after a DataWedge scan?

By default, DataWedge does not send an Enter action after a scan. Configuring this allows the cursor to automatically advance to the next field after scanning.

Steps

  1. Open your applications list and launch the DataWedge application.
  2. Select the default profile (it displays (default) next to its name).
  3. Scroll down to the Keystroke Output section.
  4. Tap Action Key Character and select Line Feed.
  5. Tap Basic Data Formatting (also within Keystroke Output).
  6. Enable these three options:
    • Enable
    • Send Data
    • Send ENTER Key

The device now sends an Enter action after every scan.
