Barcode Scanner Setup

Configuring USB or Bluetooth scanners for fast checkout lanes.

Speed Up Your Checkout

BigtinkCore supports almost any HID-compliant barcode scanner:

1. USB Scanners

Simply plug the scanner into a USB port. Windows should recognize it as a keyboard device. Open BigtinkCore, go to the POS screen, and scan a product. The item should appear in the cart immediately.

2. Bluetooth Scanners

Pair the scanner with your Windows PC via Bluetooth settings. Once paired, it works exactly like a USB scanner.

3. Troubleshooting

If scanning doesn't work, ensure your cursor is in a searchable field or that the "Auto-focus Search" setting is enabled in the POS configuration.
