Configure a barcode scanner in the Dutchie Register settings.
Configure your scanner
These setup steps are only for product scanning and Dutchie’s built-in ID scanning functionality. If you use our VeriScan integration for ID scanning, see this article instead.
- Connect the scanner to your device via USB. You can use a USB hub or adapter if you need additional USB ports or your device has USB-C ports.
-
Sign in to the Dutchie Register and select Settings
from
the left navigation menu.
-
Select Barcode scanner.
-
WebHID-compatible browsers only: select Add new scanner
and follow the on-screen instructions to authorize and connect your scanner.
-
If using one of the
recommended Zebra scanners,
select Configure scanner. Other scanners will appear
as
a "default" scanner and may have limited functionality; consult the manual
that came with your scanner to set it to HID or USB mode, then proceed
to
step 7.
-
If your browser supports WebHID, you'll see a Zebra - HID
option, which is the preferred option. Otherwise, select
Zebra - Basic. The system will auto-detect your operating
system and browser and will dynamically display the appropriate configuration
barcodes. Scan the barcodes in order, then select Done.
Note: If you configure your scanner in HID mode for use with the Register, it will not work for scanning barcodes into the Backoffice. If you later want to use the same scanner with the Backoffice, factory reset it to keyboard mode. -
Click Test scanner, then try scanning each of the three
test barcodes to verify your scanner is set up correctly.
- Click Back to scanner settings, then Return to settings.
