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 resolution 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.

Hands Free Stand/Holder

An accessory is available which holds the reader at a convenient angle, allowing hands free scanning of items. It can also be used as a holder. The reader automatically recognizes the insertion and changes its Scan Mode to allow the user to operate in hands-free mode.

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

natural_image A single red horizontal line on a gray background (no text or symbols)

Relative Size and Location of Aiming Pattern

Barcode image with a red horizontal bar at the center, likely for digital scanning or labeling purposes.

Linear Bar

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 bar code 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 elements (mil size) should be read farther from the unit. If the aiming system is centered 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.

PROGRAMMING

The reader is factory-configured 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 available in the Wasp WDI9600 PRG. Check the corresponding features section for your interface, and also the Data Editing and Symbologies chapters of the PRG.

Using Programming Bar Codes

This manual contains bar codes which allow you to reconfigure 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 Programming 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 custom 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.

Wasp WDI9600 - Resetting Product Defaults - 1

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.

READING PARAMETERS

Move the reader toward the target and center the aiming pattern and illumination system to capture and decode the image. See "Using the Wasp WDI9600" on page 4 for more information.

The aiming system will briefly switch off after the acquisition time, and if no code is decoded will switch on again before the next acquisition. The illuminator will remain on until the symbol is decoded.

As you read code symbols, adjust the distance at which you are holding the reader.

Successful reading can be signaled by a good read green spot. Use the bar codes that follow to specify the duration of the good read pointer beam after a good read.

OPERATING MODES

Scan Mode

The reader can be set to operate in one of several scanning modes. See the PRG for more information and settings for any of the options:

Trigger Single (Default) This mode is associated with typical handheld reader operation. When the trigger is pulled, illumination is turned on and the scanner attempts to read a label.

Scanning is activated until one of the following occurs:

  • the programmable “maximum scan on time” 1 has elapsed
  • a label has been read
  • the trigger is released

Trigger Pulse Multiple - Scanning begins when the trigger is pulled and continues after the trigger is released, until the trigger is pulled again or until the programmable "maximum scan on time" 1 has elapsed. Reading a label does not disable scanning. Double Read Timeout 1 prevents undesired multiple reads while in this mode.

Trigger Hold Multiple - When the trigger is pulled, scanning starts and the product scans until the trigger is released or “maximum scan on time” 1 has elapsed. Reading a label does not disable scanning. Double Read Timeout 1 prevents undesired multiple reads while in this mode.

Always On - The illuminator is always ON and the reader is always ready for code reading. Double Read Timeout 1 prevents undesired multiple reads.

Flashing - The reader illuminator flashes on and off regardless of the trigger status. Code reading takes place only during the Flash On 2 time. Double Read Timed prevents undesired multiple reads.

Object Detection - The scanner looks for changes within its field-of-view. The Aiming Pattern is always on to show the optimum reading area. If a predefined amount of movement is detected, the red illumination switches on. Scanning continues until a label is read or "maximum scan on time" is reached.

  1. See the Product Reference Guide (PRG) for these and other programmable features.
  2. Controlled by Flash On Time and Flash Off Time. Use the PRG to program these options.
