How to select TWAIN device without displaying the TWAIN device selection dialog?

In This Topic

Here is an example that demonstrates how to select TWAIN device by name:

/// <summary>
/// Select the device by the device name.
/// </summary>
public void SelectDeviceByName(Vintasoft.Twain.DeviceManager deviceManager, string deviceName)
{
    // open TWAIN device manager
    deviceManager.Open();

    // select the device by device name
    Vintasoft.Twain.Device device = deviceManager.Devices.Find(deviceName);
    // if device is not found
    if (device == null)
        // throw exception
        throw new System.Exception("Device is not found.");

    // acquire images asynchronously
    device.Acquire();
}

VB.NET

''' <summary>
''' Select the device by the device name.
''' </summary>
Public Sub SelectDeviceByName(deviceManager As Vintasoft.Twain.DeviceManager, deviceName As String)
        ' open TWAIN device manager
        deviceManager.Open()

        ' select the device by device name
        Dim device As Vintasoft.Twain.Device = deviceManager.Devices.Find(deviceName)
        ' if device is not found
        If device Is Nothing Then
                ' throw exception
                Throw New System.Exception("Device is not found.")
        End If

        ' acquire images asynchronously
        device.Acquire()
End Sub
