WASP WDI9600

DESCRIPTION

With rich feature sets and extensive model options, the

WDI9600 from Wasp represents the premium level of

data collection equipment for general purpose

applications.

The Wasp WDI9600 readers’ ability to capture bar codes

from near to far, to read both high-density and low resolu-

tion codes, to decode hard-to-read, poor or damaged

codes and to easily read bar codes from mobile devices

make these readers the perfect choice for today’s

and tomorrow’s applications in retail and office

environments, pharmacies, light industrial, warehouses

and manufacturing plants.

Top Productivity for POS and Document Handling

Perfect for manual reading, the Wasp WDI9600 linear

imager uses Motionix™ motion detection technology

that detects the operator's natural actions to

automatically switch the scanner into "ready to read" scan

mode. The distinctive "soft line viewfinder" helps the

operator to easily identify the code to be read, making

easier and faster to point, shoot and decode the correct

label, reducing accidental readings in an environment

with multiple bar codes.

Decoding

The Wasp WDI9600 reliably decodes all standard 1D

(linear), including GS1 DataBar™ linear codes, Postal

Codes (China Post). The data stream - acquired from

decoding a symbol - is rapidly sent to the host. The reader

is immediately available to read another symbol.

Description

Wasp WDI9600

Hands Free Stand/Holder

An accessory is available which holds the reader at a con-

venient angle, allowing hands free scanning of items. It

can also be used as a holder. The reader automatically rec-

ognizes the insertion and changes its Scan Mode to allow

the user to operate in hands-free mode.

Setting Up the Reader

QUICK REFERENCE GUIDE

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 as

shown below.

2. Configure the Interface (see page 7).

3. Program the Reader starting on page 16 (optional,

as needed).

Disconnecting the Cable

DISCONNECTING THE CABLE

To remove the interface cable from the reader, first locate

the hole on the back of the handle. Next, take a paper clip

and modify it as shown in the figure below. Insert the

end of the paper clip into the hole and press it to push on

the clip that holds the connector. As you apply pressure,

pull out the cable. When reinserting the cable, make sure

the connector clip is on the same side as the reader

release hole. Insert the cable, it should click when it is

fully inserted.

USING THE Wasp WDI9600

The Wasp WDI9600 normally functions by capturing and

decoding codes. The reader is equipped with an internal

Motionix™ 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 bar code:

Aiming System

NOTE: We recommend the use of a perfectly

straight new staple to make the operation easier

(see the pictures below).

Using the Wasp WDI9600

QUICK REFERENCE GUIDE

Relative Size and Location of Aiming Pattern

Linear Bar

A red beam illuminates the label. The field of view indi-

cated by the aiming system will be smaller when the

reader is closer to the bar code and larger when it is far-

ther from the code. Symbologies with smaller bars or ele-

ments (mil size) should be read closer to the unit.

Symbologies with larger bars or elements (mil size) should

be read farther from the unit. If the aiming system is cen-

tered and the entire bar code is within 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.

Refer to the Wasp WDI9600 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 supported by the reader and scan the appropriate

bar code to select your system’s correct interface type,

according to your application.

For interfaces other than those listed in this manual,

see the Wasp WDI9600 Product Reference Guide (PRG),

available online at www.waspbarcode.com.

Configuring the Interface

QUICK REFERENCE GUIDE

CONFIGURING THE INTERFACE

Scan the appropriate programming bar code to select the

interface type for your system.

NOTE: Unlike some other programming features

and options, interface selections require that you

scan only one programming bar code label. DO

NOT scan an ENTER/EXIT bar code prior to scan-

ning an interface selection 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 pro-

gramming with bar codes.

Programming

PROGRAMMING

The reader is factory-configur

ed with a set of standard

default features. After scanning the interface bar code from

the Interfaces section, select other options and customize

your reader through use of the programming bar codes avail-

able in the Wasp WDI9600 PRG. Check the correspond-ing

features section for your interface, and also the Data

Editing and Symbo

logies chapters of the PRG.

Using Programming Bar Codes

This manual contains

bar codes which allow you to reconfig-

ure your reader. Some programming bar code labels, like the

"Reset Default Settings" on page 16, require only the scan of

that single label to enact the change.

Other bar codes require the reader to be placed in Program-

ming Mode prior to scanning them. Scan an ENTER/EXIT bar

code once to enter Programming Mode; scan the desired

parameter settings; scan the ENTER/EXIT bar code again to

accept your changes, which exits Programming Mode and

returns the reader

to normal operation.

Configure Other Settings

Additional programming bar codes are available in the

PRG to allow for customizing programming features. If

your installation requires different programming than the

standard factory default settings, refer to the PRG.

Resetting Product Defaults

If you aren’t sure what programming options are in your

reader, or you’ve changed some options and want your cus-

tom factory settings restored, scan the bar code below to

reset the reader to its initial configuration. Reference the PRG

for other options, and a listing of standard factory settings.

Reset Default Settings

NOTE: Factory defaults are based on the interface

type. Be sure your reader is configured for the

correct interface before scanning this label. See

"Selecting the Interface Type" on page 6 for more

information.
