change listener from one edittext to a second edittext

Looking for help on this. I have 2 EditTexts on an activity. When user get to screen the first EditText has focus for input from a scanner. User scans barcode and program validates it is a good read by finding corresponding item from database. If finds the item I am trying to get the second EditText to have focus for the next scan.

I am new to java (VB windows developer) and struggling to accomplish this. No matter what I have tried everytime I scan the second barcode the first EditText gets what is scanned.

I am having hard time figuring out how to change the listener to be focused on Second EditText.

Can someone please explain how to change the focus to second EditText after a valid first scan.

public void listener() {
        scanner.scannerListener = new ScannerListener() {
            @Override
        public void listener() {
           sChecker = mEntryText.getText().toString();

            if (sChecker.equals("")) ;
            {
                mScan = scanner.getScanResult();
                Timber.d("The barcode is " + mScan);
                if (!mScan.equals("")) {

                    int lmScan = mScan.length();
                    if (lmScan > 15) {
                        checkGs1Barcode();
                    }
                    String s = DatabaseMgr.VerifyItem(mScan);
                    if (s.length() > 1) {
                        if (s.equalsIgnoreCase("Unknown Item###")) {
                            Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), "Unknown Item", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
                        } else if (s.equalsIgnoreCase("Multiple Items###")) {
                            setupMultiItems(mScan);
                        } else {
                            String[] sArr = s.split("\\#");
                            String IsItem = sArr[0];
                            String IsItemDesc = sArr[1];
                            String isLevel = sArr[2];
                            String isLvlDesc = sArr[3];
                            Button ItemDescText = findViewById(R.id.btnDesc);
                            ItemDescText.setText(IsItemDesc);
                            TextView ItemUPCText = findViewById(R.id.editUPC);
                            ItemUPCText.setText(mScan);

                            Integer iQTY = ValidateQTYinArea(IsItem, "RTN", myArea, isLevel);
                            TextView mQty = findViewById(R.id.txtDetail);
                            String myResult = "RTN - " + myArea + " - " + isLvlDesc + " - " + iQTY;
                            mQty.setText(myResult);
                            mEntryText.setBackgroundColor(getResources().getColor(R.color.colorWhite));

                            mLoc.setBackgroundColor(getResources().getColor(R.color.colorYellow));
                            mLoc.requestFocus();
                        }
                    }
                } else {
                    mLoc.setText(scanner.getScanResult());
                }

            }

        }
    };
}

the mLoc.setText line is not getting hit

So what you need to do is:

if (sChecker.equals("")){
   mEditText1.setText("text to be set");
}else{
   mEditText2.setText("text to be set");
}
