    How to scan pages from the automatic document feeder (ADF) of eSCL scanner?
    In This Topic
    If you want to scan pages from the automatic document feeder (ADF) of eSCL scanner, you should set the scan input source (using EsclDevice.ScanInputSource property) to the EsclScanInputSource.FeederWithoutDuplex or EsclScanInputSource.FeederWithDuplex value.

    Supported scan input sources can be obtained using EsclDevice.GetSupportedScanInputSources method.

    Here is an example that demonstrates how to acquire images from automatic document feeder of eSCL device:
    /// <summary>
    /// Acquires images from the automatic document feeder (ADF) of eSCL device.
    /// </summary>
    public void AcquireImagesFromDocumentFeederOfEsclDevice()
    {
        // create eSCL device manager
        using (Vintasoft.EsclImageScanning.EsclDeviceManager deviceManager = new Vintasoft.EsclImageScanning.EsclDeviceManager())
        {
            // open eSCL 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;
            }
    
            // select the first eSCL device
            Vintasoft.EsclImageScanning.EsclDevice device = deviceManager.Devices[0];
    
            // open eSCL device
            device.Open();
    
    
            // get names of supported scan input sources
            Vintasoft.EsclImageScanning.EsclScanInputSource[] supportedScanInputSources = device.GetSupportedScanInputSources();
            foreach (Vintasoft.EsclImageScanning.EsclScanInputSource supportedScanSource in supportedScanInputSources)
            {
                if (supportedScanSource == Vintasoft.EsclImageScanning.EsclScanInputSource.FeederWithoutDuplex ||
                    supportedScanSource == Vintasoft.EsclImageScanning.EsclScanInputSource.FeederWithDuplex)

                    device.ScanInputSource = supportedScanSource;
                    break;
                }
            }
