DB Lookup Application
The DB Lookup application enables the user to download a database to the KDC that
may then be utilized for advanced AUTO-ID applications, such as displaying
additional data after scanning a barcode. For example, using our DB Lookup
application, you may download a product database including information such as
description, price, and stock quantity. With the advanced data functionality built-in
to the KDC, you may easily display product price, description, and stock level after the
product’s barcode is scanned.
