Hall Sensor Intent API Guide

The API documentation summarizes Honeywell's Android Hall Sensor State Change Intent API. This API allows applications to receive broadcast intents when a hall sensor changes state, including the dock and scan trigger sensors. It provides the intent action, data type, and extras to indicate the sensor ID and state. The documentation includes an example Xamarin.Android code snippet to register a broadcast receiver and handle the hall sensor state change intents.

Honeywell Android Hall Sensor State Change Intent API

Summary
The Hall Sensor Intent API allows applications to receive broadcast intents and handle hall sensor state
change transitions.

This API is available on Honeywell Android handheld computers that support the hall sensor feature.
Applications may receive the hall sensor state change intents using an Android broadcast receiver without
a Honeywell SDK.

To see if your Android computer supports the hall sensor state change feature, you may plug and unplug
the device from doc or use magnet attach to the hall sensor.

Interface Details
Hall Sensor State Change Intent
This intent is broadcasted immediately when the dock hall sensor(bottom hall sensor) or scan trigger hall
sensor(back hall sensor) changes it’s state.

Action: "com.honeywell.intent.action.HALL_SENSOR_STATE_CHANGE"

Data URI: None

MIME Type: None

Extras

1."hallSensorId"(string): Indicates which hall sensor changes it state.“scannerTriggerStatus” and


“dockConnectedStatus” are the values.

2."hallSensorState"(int):Indicates hall sensor state whether it is Enabled or not. This value sets to
“1” when hall sensor state is enabled otherwise”0”.
