This thing isn’t working for me and I think it’s because I need to push it into continuous mode.

I think I need this… but in english.

Does core have a way of contacting the manufacture and asking for one please?

Hey there, @Pixmusix, I think I found the English version of that guide here:

ZBarcode Scanner User Guide v2.5 – English

Continuous Mode is on page 22. Point the scanner at the Continuous Mode programming barcode. Once accepted, the trigger should start continuous decoding, with another trigger stopping it.

I cannot for the life of me get this thing to scan with the M5 core 2.

Does core have a recommended arduino IDE example so I can confirm it’s not dud hardware?

I’m just looking for a sanity check (nothing I can find online works).

Hey there, @Pixmusix,

Yes we do. Or, well, M5Stack does. There is an I2C test example on the M5 Stack Docs page for this product (which is unhelpfully labelled as ‘Complete Documentation’ (I’m going to have to update the product page to make that a little more clear).

Its for the M5Stack Core, not the Core2 so it may need a little bit of modification to get it working, but it should distinguish “I2C Init Fail” from a decoding problem.

Let us know the results.
