M3 Mobile settings in combination with Centix apps

This manual is intended for using Centix OnSite and/or Centix Logistics on the M3 Mobile SM15 and SM20 devices. To ensure optimal functionality, specific settings on these scanners need to be adjusted.

Scanning Barcodes / QR Codes

To scan barcodes or QR codes using an M3 Mobile scanner, it’s important to configure the scanner settings correctly so it works seamlessly with the Centix apps. The settings differ depending on the scanner model.

SM20 – ScanEmul

The SM20 comes with a pre-installed app called “ScanEmul”. This app allows you to configure the built-in barcode scanner.

  • Open the ScanEmul app
  • Go to Basic data formatting
  • Set Output Mode to None (Copy to clipboard)
  • Set End Character to Null

RFID Scanning

If you are using the RFID gun to scan RFID tags, you need to add Centix OnSite and/or Centix Logistics as an associated app in the UHFEmul app. Additionally, some settings must be configured.

SM15 / SM20 – UHFEmul

Open the UHFEmul app on the scanner. Under Associated Apps, enable Centix OnSite and/or Centix Logistics. Without this, the RFID functionality will not work.
