About the Software

SocketScan™ enters scanned data directly into any open
Symbian Series 60 or Series 80 program, as if the data were
manually typed. You can configure Prefix/Suffixes and
assign a beep tone to signify good data reads into your
Smartphone. Additionally, you can change the frequency of
the beep tone or enable/disable bar code symbologies with
just the press of a button.
