-## Step-by-step instructions
+==== Step-by-step instructions ====
-### 1) Open Android Settings (Fig. 1)
+==== 1) Open Android Settings ====
-. Open the **app overview** (home screen / list of all apps).
+  - Open the app overview (home screen / list of all apps).
-. Tap **Settings**.
+  - Tap **Settings**.
-### 2) Open Scanner Settings (Fig. 2)
+{{:cobi.wms:keyence1.png?400|}}
-. In Android Settings, select **Scanner** (scan parameters, code settings).
+==== 2) Open Scanner Settings ====
-### 3) Open Data Formatting (Fig. 3)
+  - In Android Settings, select **Scanner** (scan parameters, code settings).
-. In the **Scanner** menu, scroll to the **Data** section.
+{{:cobi.wms:keyence2.png?400|}}
-. Open **Data formatting**.
-### 4) Enable “AIM ID Prefix” (Fig. 4)
+==== 3) Open Data Formatting ====
-. Enable **AIM ID Prefix** (check the box).
+  - In the **Scanner** menu, scroll to the **Data** section.
+  - Open **Data formatting**.
-**Why this matters:**

+==== 4) Enable “AIM ID Prefix” ====
+  - Enable **AIM ID Prefix** (check the box).
+{{:cobi.wms:keyence4.png?400|}}
+=== Why this matters: ===
 The AIM ID adds an identifier to the scanned data so COBI.wms can reliably determine the **barcode type** (e.g., GS1/EAN128 vs. Code128). This is especially important for GS1 logic (AI structures).
-### 5) Go back and open “Data Output” (Fig. 5)
+==== 5) Go back and open “Data Output” ====
-. Go **one step back** to the Scanner menu.
+  - Go **one step back** to the Scanner menu.
-. Open **Data output**.
+  - Open **Data output**.
-### 6) Set Transmission Type to “KeyEvent” (Fig. 6)
+{{:cobi.wms:keyence5.png?400|}}
-. Under **Transmission type**, set the value to **KeyEvent**.
+==== 6) Set Transmission Type to “KeyEvent” ====
+  - Under **Transmission type**, set the value to **KeyEvent**.
 **Short note:**
 “KeyEvent” sends scanned data as keyboard/event input (keystrokes), improving compatibility and handling of special characters/structures in input fields.
-### 7) Enable Intent and configure Broadcast (Fig. 7)
+{{:cobi.wms:keyence6.png?400|}}
-. In **Data output**, tap **Intent**.
+==== 7) Enable Intent and configure Broadcast ====
-. Enable **Intent** (check the box).
-. Under **Action**, enter this value exactly:
+  - In **Data output**, tap **Intent**.
+  - Enable **Intent** (check the box).
+  - Under **Action**, enter this value exactly:
    * `de.cobi.wms.action.DATAWEDGE_BARCODE`
@@ Line 60: / Line 72: @@
 COBI.wms expects scan data via a defined Intent action. Using **Broadcast** ensures the scan Intent is delivered to the app so the correct internal logic is triggered.
-### 8) Set Intent extras: Code type / Raw data / Data (Fig. 8)
+{{:cobi.wms:keyence7.png?400|}}
+==== 8) Set Intent extras: Code type / Raw data / Data ====
 Scroll further down in the Intent settings and set these values **manually**:
-* **Code type** → `com.motorolasolutions.emdk.datawedge.label_type`
+  * **Code type** → `com.motorolasolutions.emdk.datawedge.label_type`
-* **Raw data** → `com.motorolasolutions.emdk.datawedge.source`
+  * **Raw data** → `com.motorolasolutions.emdk.datawedge.source`
-* **Data** → `com.motorolasolutions.emdk.datawedge.data_string`
+  * **Data** → `com.motorolasolutions.emdk.datawedge.data_string`
 These extras ensure COBI.wms receives the information in the expected structure and can process the barcode logic correctly (including type/source/payload).
