Connecting two Regula devices to one PC

Issue:

It is necessary to connect two Regula devices to one PC.

Note

You can connect multiple Regula devices to one PC, but you cannot use them simultaneously in the Regula Document Reader application. It is important to develop your application with integration via the COM object.

Solution:

  1. Obtain the number of available devices in the system using the AvailableDevicesCount property.

  2. Select a device using the SelectedDeviceName property. If you have more than one device connected to your PC simultaneously, then you can select a specific device to connect. Use the AvailableDevices method to obtain the name.

  3. To use the next device programmatically, disable the previous one using the SelectedDeviceName property.

  4. If you want to get a list of device names, open the devices.lst file located at the following path: C:\Users\user\AppData\Local\Regula\Document Reader SDK.

Note

The COM object is used to interact with the Document Reader. Only one device can reference the COM object.

Additional information:

  1. To download the latest version of the Document Reader SDK, use the Regula Downloads manager.

  2. Examples will be located after installing the Document Reader SDK at the following path: C:\Program Files (x86)\Regula\Samples.

  3. Please refer to the additional information about the COM object, the Document Reader application, and the Programmer's Guide. This documentation will also be available after installing the Document Reader SDK at the following path: C:\Program Files (x86)\Regula\Document Reader SDK\Doc.
