Pairing Barcodes

Using Keyboard Wedge

The keyboard wedge allows you to use your KDC as a keyboard. The HID profile works as a keyboard wedge by default. When using SPP or MFi, KTSync provides a keyboard wedge function when the KTSync keyboard is enabled. Please refer to the KDC Reference Manual for detailed instructions to enable the KTSync keyboard.

1. Ensure that the KDC is connected to the host using the HID profile or the KDC is connected via the KTSync keyboard using SPP/MFi profiles.
2. Open any application on the host device that contains a text field you want to populate.
3. Tap the text field in the application.
4. Scan any barcode with the KDC.
5. The barcode data will then populate in the text field.
