Quick Reference Guide 1
Using the WWS750-BS Base Station
The WWS750-BS Presentation Base, when paired with one or more WWS750
reader, builds a Cordless Reading System for the collection, decod- ing and
transmission of bar code data. It can be connected to a Host PC via RS-232,
USB, or KBD Wedge, and is suited for single-cradle layouts.
The label on the cradle contains LED indicators and a multi-function button.
The LEDs signal the WWS750-BS sta-
tus, as shown.
LED STATUS
Aux Yellow On = WWS750-BS is powered through an external
power supply.
Host Yellow On = WWS750-BS is powered by the Host.
Reader
Green On = the reader battery is completely charged.
Red On = the reader battery is charging.
Orange Blinking = reader battery fault - replace battery.
Red / Green Alternatively Blinking = charging error - see PRG.
Off = reader not in the cradle or not properly inserted.
Radio Yellow Blinking = radio activity.

System Connections
The WWS750-BS cradle provides a multi-interface connector and a power
supply connector as shown:
Connecting and Disconnecting the Interface Cable
The WWS750-BS can be connected to a Host by means of a multi-interface
cable, which must be simply plugged into the Host connector, visible on the
front panel of the cradle.
To disconnect the cable, insert a paper clip or other similar object into the hole
corresponding to the Host connector on the body of the cradle. Push down on
the clip while unplugging the cable. Refer to the following figure:

NOTE
The power supply is required only if you need to connect the interface
cable to a standard USB Port. The power supply is not required if you
connect the interface cable to a PoweredUSB 12V or 24V port.

WWS750-BS Configuration
Quick Reference Guide 7
WWS750-BS Configuration
The WWS750-BS configuration can be performed in two ways: sending con-
figuration strings from the Host PC via the RS-232 or USB-COM interface or
by reading configuration bar codes with the WWS750.
Serial Configuration
By connecting the WWS750-BS to a PC through an RS-232 or USB-COM inter-
face cable it is possible to send configuration strings from the PC to
WWS750-BS.
Configuration Bar Codes
Link the cradle and the reader using the procedures described in the WWS750
Quick Reference. Once the pairing is complete, you can configure the
WWS750-BS cradle by reading configuration bar codes in this manual.
To configure the WWS750-BS using the WWS750 reader (paired to the cradle
with the Bind command), follow the procedure according to the interface
selected.
Resetting Standard Product Defaults
Reference the PRG for a listing of standard factory settings. If you aren’t sure
what programming options are in your reader, or you’ve changed some
options and want the factory settings restored, scan the
Standard Product
Default Settings
bar code below to copy the factory configuration for the cur-
rently active interface to the current configuration.
NOTE
Factory defaults are based on the interface type. Configure the reader
for the correct interface before scanning this label.
CAUTION
Scanning this bar code will RESET all settings for the WWS750. Any
customized settings that may have been applied to the reader will be
lost.

Selecting the Interface Type
8 WWS750-BS Base Station
Selecting the Interface Type
Upon completing the physical connection between the reader and its host,
scan the appropriate bar code for your system’s correct interface type.
Configuring the Interface
Scan the programming bar code which selects the appropriate interface type
for the system the reader will be connected to.
NOTE
Unlike some other programming features and options, interface selec-
tions require that you scan only one programming bar code label. DO
NOT scan an ENTER/EXIT bar code prior to scanning an interface selec-
tion bar code.
Some interfaces require the scanner to start in the disabled state when
powered up. If additional scanner configuration is desired while in this
state, pull the trigger and hold for 5 seconds. The scanner will change
to a state that allows programming with bar codes.
