Hi all,
Has anyone got any ideas about where to get some C code to read a barcode?
Ive got a pen but dont know what to plug it to.
Can you send me the code?
Sorry, but I can't just give that away! Maybe someone else could help?
But, if you want help or advice with a specific area, then I might be able to help.
An 8052 with 32K of RAM should easily do the job; assuming that it's running at a decent clock rate. I always found that 14.7456MHz was a good one because it provided near-perfect resolution for acquisition of the barcode swipe and also was good when used to drive an RS232 communication link.
