Updates in Scan-IT to Office 3.17.0: What’s New and Improved? 


We’ve added new features

🆕 Developer Mode: (JavaScript action endpoints for customized Excel logic) 
🔄 Backup/Restore: Save and import your JavaScript action endpoints and settings 

How to use Developer Mode

JavaScript action endpoints under developer tools section are used to customize the data acquisition logic when scanning data into Excel worksheets. With the help of JavaScript and the Office-JS API you are able to: 

  • Insert data into specific worksheet fields,
  • Check if a data entry is eligible for insertion, 
  • Perform arbitrary lookups and validations
  • Send feedback to the device, etc. 

👇Our demo endpoints show examples of how inserts can be manipulated. 

👇Here is how you can download sample Excel sheets:


Note: The JavaScript action is triggered only if a matching action name (see "Supported Actions") is sent from the data entry form in the Scan-IT to Office app. Currently, this feature is only supported by custom forms. 

👇Debugging: For custom scripts, use the log tab to see errors and debug with the addLogEntry function as shown in JavaScript code section. 



 Note: Once a JS action endpoint is deleted, it cannot be recovered.


👇 The Backup/Restore feature allows you to save and load endpoint scripts and AddIn settings locally. This enables us to create custom JS action endpoints and share them with our users.




Additionally, users can backup their custom JS action endpoints and transfer them between devices. 📱➡️📱

Data Center Power Outage Resilience, a Real-World Scenario (be warned, this post is off-topic) Longer-lasting grid power outages can pose significant challenges to data centers. In this blog post, we share a real-world scenario where the V2L (Vehicle-to-Load) function of a KIA EV6 became a lifeline for our data center. Specifically, we'll delve into the steps taken to utilize the KIA EV6 to power the UPS (Uninterruptible Power Supply) of our data center during an outage caused by a planned power grid shutdown. The Challenge In this particular instance, our power grid operator scheduled a power shutdown in our area to perform major replacement and upgrade work, leaving the data center without its usual power supply for about two hours.
