mentation, and any related internal design, system design, data base design,
algorithms, technology, technical data or information, implementation tech-
niques, and trade secrets related to the Software, (b) any other trade secrets
marked appropriately or identified as proprietary or confidential, and (c) any
information that End User, under the circumstances, should recognize as confi-
dential. Proprietary Information does not include any information that the receiv-

nated Wasp Product"), in machine-readable form only, solely for End User's inter-
nal business purposes. This Agreement does not convey ownership of the
Software to End User. Title to the Software shall be and remain with Wasp or the
third party from whom Wasp has obtained a licensed right. As used in this Agree-
ment, the term "purchase" or its equivalents when applied to the Software shall
mean "acquire under license." End User is not entitled to receipt or use of the
source code to any Software.
2.2 End User shall not copy, modify, decompile, disassemble, reverse engineer, or
otherwise reproduce or remanufacture the Software, whether modified or
unmodified, nor sell, assign, sublicense, distribute, lend, rent, give, or otherwise

sent.

tronic transfer, or other use of the Software on other than the designated Wasp

2 WDI4600
notify End User that End User is deemed to have ordered and accepted a license
for each breaching use. End User shall pay Wasp the applicable list price for such
licenses as of the date of such breach.
3.2 End User shall not sell, assign, sublicense, distribute, lend, rent, give, or otherwise
transfer the Wasp Product to any third party unless such third party agrees with
Wasp in writing to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Agreement. Any

poses. End User shall take steps to protect the Proprietary Information no less
securely than if it were End User's own intellectual property.

WDI4600
Description
With rich feature sets and extensive model options, the
WDI4600 product series from Wasp Barcode Technologies
represents the premium level of data collection equipment for
general purpose applications. The WDI4600 reader has en-
hanced optics with improved motion tolerance, allowing
codes placed on fast-moving objects to be easily and quickly
captured, creating the ideal reader for tasks requiring high
throughput like those found in retail and light industrial envi-
ronments.
Omni-
Directional
Operating
To read a symbol or capture an image, simply aim
the reader and pull the trigger. The WDI4600 is a
powerful omni-directional reader, so the orienta-
tion of the symbol is not important.
When using the product with the cradle at a 45°
position, the aiming pattern can work as an aim-
ing system to aid in positioning the barcode for
quick and intuitive reading.
Decoding
Reliably decodes all standard 1D (linear) and 2D
barcodes, including GS1 DataBar™ linear codes,
Postal Codes (China Post), Stacked Codes (such as
GS1 DataBar Expanded Stacked, GS1 DataBar
Stacked, GS1 DataBar, Stacked Omnidirectional).
The data stream — acquired from decoding a
symbol — is rapidly sent to the host. The reader is
immediately available to read another symbol.
Imaging
The WDI4600 can also function as a camera by
capturing entire images or image portions of
labels, signatures, and other items.

Setting Up the Reader
6 WDI4600
Setting Up the Reader
Follow the steps below to connect and get your reader up and
communicating with its host.
1. Connect the Cable to the reader and the Host.
2. Configure the Interface (see page 8).
3. Configure the Reader starting on page 19 (optional,
depends on settings needed).
Connect/Disconnect Cable to Reader

Host Connection:
The WDI4600 plugs directly into the host
device as shown in Figure 2. The power can also be supplied
through an external power supply via the Interface Cable sup-
plied with a power jack.

Using the WDI4600
Quick Reference Guide 7
Using the WDI4600
The WDI4600 normally functions by capturing and decoding
codes. The reader is equipped with an internal motion-sensing
function which activates the aiming system on device motion.
The intelligent aiming system indicates the field of view which
should be positioned over the barcode:
Aiming System
Relative Size and Location of Aiming System Pattern
A red beam illuminates the label. The field of view indicated
by the aiming system will be smaller when the reader is closer
to the barcode and larger when it is farther from the code.
Symbologies with smaller bars or elements (mil size) should be
read closer to the unit. Symbologies with larger bars or ele-
ments (mil size) should be read farther from the unit.
If the aiming system is centered and the entire barcode is with-
in the aiming field, you will get a good read. Successful reading
is signaled by an audible tone plus a good-read green spot LED
indicator.
Reference the WDI4600 Product Reference Guide (PRG) for
more information about this feature and other programmable
settings.

Selecting the Interface Type
Upon completing the physical connection between the reader
and its host, proceed directly to Interface Selection below for
information and programming for the interface type the read-
er is connected to (for example: RS-232, Keyboard Wedge,
USB, etc.) and scan the appropriate barcode to select your sys-
tem’s correct interface type.
Interface Selection
Each reader model will support one of the following sets of
host interfaces:
General Purpose Models: RS-232, RS-232 OPOS, USB, Key-
board Wedge, Wand.
Information and programming options for each interface type
are provided in this section. For defaults and additional infor-
mation associated with each interface, proceed to the corre-
sponding chapter in the WDI4600 PRG.
Configuring the Interface
Scan the appropriate programming barcode to select the inter-
face type for your system.
Unlike some other programming features and options,
interface selections require that you scan only one
programming barcode label. DO NOT scan an ENTER/
EXIT barcode prior to scanning an interface selection
barcode.
Some interfaces require the scanner to start in the dis-
abled 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 barcodes.
