If some products are not found by the PDA when the barcode is scanned, check what the scanner is picking up by scanning the barcode into Wordpad/Notepad on the PDA, and compare this barcode scan to what you have in Product Control - Barcode.
If this is different, you will need to change some scanner configurations on the PDA.
How to:
PDA MODEL: Falcon 4220
On the PDA, click on the Start Menu, then settings, then Control Panel. Open Scanner Configure, and click on the Detail Tab.
The most common barcode types are:
UPC-A (American Product)
Ean13 (Australian Product)
Select this barcode type, then alter the tick options. For example, if the PDA is picking up an extra 0 at the start of the barcode, and untick transmit first digit. Now click on OK and scan the barcode into Wordpad/Notepad again to check. If this scans the same as what you see in Product Control, it will pick up the product in the Stocktake program.

The new PDA program allows for add count and also consignment areas and Orders = Allocated and Customer Orders.
Here is some information on updating from the current version, The new one calls on PeachWebServer
1. Check the version of Windows CE E.G. 4.1 or 4.2 or 5
(CE4.2 is on all Falcons, Bluebirds and Denso)
2. From Peach Downloads select the PDA Cab files being careful to select the corresponding 4.2 or 5. Save to the disk on chip.
4. Navigate to the file, double click, and extract to the
default \windows directory.
5. Reset the PDA and then Download latest stockpda.exe
The server it is communicating with needs the latest PeachWebServer and peach 99607 update. Even if the version looks current, update it again incase.

IN addition to this: If the PDA is set to Area BRANCH lets say and you are using a consignment system, then if use Location for areas = Y the PDA can save the location to the correct area within the location. Where a product has stock in 3 Consignment Areas and each has its own Bin Location then the area that your branch is set to will view in the Consolidated view as well as the local view.

If the StockPDA.exe program cannot run or open - then the PDA Program Memory might be low. Goto:
Start > Settings > Control Panel > System > Memory
and move the slider around - (a bit of trial and Error)
after you move the slider around, click OK and try to run the program...
If that fails - do a cold reboot.
Same thing if you are trying to download something to the PDA and there is no storage space.

If after scanning a barcode you find it impossible to get a Carriage Return/Line Feed to occer, otherwise known as the enter key, download V5 and follow these instructions. Basically you are telling the StockPDA to put a ~ after the barcode is scanned and then you are telling the PDA to carru out an ENTER if and when it sees a ~
In the PDA barcode Wedge setup, there is a config screen. In there you can set a suffix character for every scan. Set to: ~
Turn off any other suffix setting.
Then once you download the new stockpda "V5". In the setup tab, you can enable the character return. The stockpda should download to the application folder, if not, re download, and assign the folder manually. Carriage Return Line Feed enter after barcode suffix Edited by peach - 13-Aug-2010 at 07:08 |
