How to configure a scanner?

Hi,

my customer uses WaDaCo solution and it works fine as long as you enter data via keyboard. But it does not work with a scanner.

Scanner is installed as a keyboard and it is configured to append CRLF to the scanned value. If you open Notepad++ and scan a barcode, you can see that values are transferred correctly:

 

But if you open WaDaCo and scan the barcode, the value is also transferred correctly to the WaDaCo client. But the window can no longer be used. It stucks and you have to kill it with task manager: 

 

So, I’m quite sure that the CRLF at the end is wrong. In an existing topic I read that ‘enter’ should be used. I thought that ‘enter’ is CRLF. But obviously I’m wrong.

Does anybody know, what would be the correct escape sequence/control codes? We already tried it with a tab instead or even without an escape sequence. Both did not work.

 

Thanks in advance for all hints.
