Using Demo Application

1. The demo application can be found in the /usr/share/zebra-camera/samples/multi_client_zebra_camera_demo
2. Connect the UVC Camera device (PID VID)
3. Launch the “multi_client_zebra_camera_demo” application with root privileges.
4. Use the controls to change the UVC standard control
5. Sample application supports multiple devices

Known Issues and Limitations

1. When scanning lengthy barcodes, only first 25 characters are provided to the application
2. Parameter validation is not done by SDK during camera configuration
3. Very fast scanning might cause missing decode image events from Camera SDK
