eSCL devices

In This Topic

eSCL device manager allows to get the device list programmatically. Device list can be obtained using EsclDeviceManager.Devices property. Information about an opened device can be obtained using EsclDeviceManager.OpenedDevice property.

Here is an example that demonstrates how to open eSCL device manager and display information about all available eSCL devices:

/// <summary>
/// Opens eSCL device manager and displays information about available local eSCL image scanners.
/// </summary>
void GetEsclDevicesInfo()
{
    // create eSCL device manager
    using (Vintasoft.EsclImageScanning.EsclDeviceManager deviceManager = new Vintasoft.EsclImageScanning.EsclDeviceManager())
    {
        // open device manager
        deviceManager.Open();

        // wait while the eSCL device manager searches for eSCL devices
        System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(deviceManager.DeviceSearchTimeout);
        // get count of eSCL devices
        int deviceCount = deviceManager.Devices.Count;
        if (deviceCount == 0)
        {
            System.Console.WriteLine("Devices are not found.");
            return;
        }

        Vintasoft.EsclImageScanning.EsclDeviceCollection devices = deviceManager.Devices;
        // for each eSCL device
        for (int i = 0; i < devices.Count; i++)
        {
            // output the device name
            System.Console.WriteLine(string.Format("Device '{0}'", devices[i].Name));
        }
    }
}

VB.NET

    ' create eSCL device manager
    Using deviceManager As New Vintasoft.EsclImageScanning.EsclDeviceManager()

        ' wait while the eSCL device manager searches for eSCL devices
        System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(deviceManager.DeviceSearchTimeout)
        ' get count of eSCL devices
        Dim deviceCount As Integer = deviceManager.Devices.Count
        If deviceCount = 0 Then
            System.Console.WriteLine("Devices are not found.")
            Return
        End If

        Dim devices As Vintasoft.EsclImageScanning.EsclDeviceCollection = deviceManager.Devices
        ' for each eSCL device
        For i As Integer = 0 To devices.Count - 1
            ' output the device name
            System.Console.WriteLine(String.Format("Device '{0}'", devices(i).Name))
        Next
    End Using
End Sub
