Greetings,
I am working with a TC26AK touch computer to implement a warehouse functionality. I primarily work with python language. I am looking to see if there is any way the barcode scanned using a TC26AK be transmitted to python. i am familiar with using sockets to send data to printers and was wondering is there anything that can allow me to TC26AK to send barcode to python.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks and Regards

Hi,
I'd recommend taking a look at the IP output section of DataWedge: https://techdocs.zebra.com/datawedge/6-3/guide/output/ip/
Hi James.
Thank you for the response. I following the steps in the link to configure the IP output part in the Data Wedge software. I provided the IP address and port number of my computer that runs the socket script.
Then in the socket program i gave the IP address and port of the TC 26 and tried to connect but am facing an error that says "No Connection could be made as the target machine actively refused it"
Any suggestions for here?
Thanks

You may need to use IPWedge on your PC, some more info here: https://techdocs.zebra.com/datawedge/6-3/guide/ipwedge/
MSI installer available here: https://www.zebra.com/us/en/support-downloads/software/utilities/ipwedg…
i finally figured it out. I did not use the IPWedge software. I just connected the TC to the same WIFI as my laptop. Then i wrote a socket server script and gave the IP and port of the TC26. In the TC26, i went to the barcode reader app and checked the IPOutput option and entered the host (IP of my laptop) and a port number through with it should send the data through.
Thank you for the assist James.
Thanks for updating the thread with your solution - glad you got it working :)
