StopFeeder() Method (Device)
In This Topic
Sends the stop document feeder command to the device (document feeder will not be stopped right after execution of this method).
Syntax
'Declaration
Public Sub StopFeeder()
public: void StopFeeder()
Exceptions
Exception | Description |
DebuggerException | Thrown if the .NET debugger is used and the function evaluation requires all threads to run. |
TwainInvalidStateException | Thrown if device is not transferring images OR device does not support AutoScan capability. |
Example
This C#/VB.NET code shows how to pause the image acquisition from feeder (stop the feeder) and resume the image acquisition from feeder.
Class SyncScan_StopFeeder
''' <summary>
''' This method scans the first image, stops the document feeder,
