Does Clarity support bar code scanners?

Bar code scanners support is implemented within a few autosampler control modules (Spark Integrity, HTA HT4000, …) – here the read bar code will be available as %f variable to be used in SampleID, Sample or Filename fields.

Hand-held scanners (emulating keyboard) could be used to fill in the values in the sequence table – terminating character should be set to Enter and the setting in the User Options dialog - General tab - Sequence Table - On Enter section should be set to Move Down option to move the focus to the next row after the Bar code value is read. For versions prior to 9.0 the option to set the terminating character to Down Arrow in the scanner will be advantageous otherwise it is necessary to move to the next row using the mouse/keyboard.
