Barcode Scanner not correctly idenitifying barcodes

Hi,

I have a Dewo XT-7100 Omnidirectional Barcode Scanner, when testing with Notepad all barcodes are being shown as XXXXXXXXXXXXX

I have tried many different settings provided in the manual but nothing seems to change this and I have not been able to find further information online.

If you want to see anything in notepad you must program scanner to work as keyboard emulator.
I don't know this scanner because it's Chinese, but most scanners to program you must scan barcode name START PROGRAM, then EMULATION ASCI, then END PROGRAM.

I prefer Worthdata scanners because they have a hundreds of emulations included postamble and preamble.
