such replacement, modified or upgraded version on your acceptance
of such superseding Agreement. In addition, either party may
terminate this Agreement at any time. Subject to the foregoing,
termination shall be effective upon notice to the other party. In the
event that this Agreement terminates for any reason, End User's
license to use the Software will immediately terminate, and End User
must immediately stop using the Software, destroy all copies of the
Software and all of its component parts, and, upon request, provide
an affidavit certifying your compliance with the foregoing. The

Wasp WDI4200

About the Scanner

The WDI4200 area imager is an entry level product specifi­cally designed for reading long and truncated 1D codes and
larger 2D codes from close distance. The WDI4200 imager
has an extra-wide Field of View which captures these chal­lenging 1D and 2D codes at a nominal distance using dif­ferent scan angles, meeting the scanning needs in Retail,
Light Manufacturing, Document/Bill Processing and Bank­ing/Finance. The WDI4200 2D imager is the most afford­able area imager with the best performance in its class.

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. Always press in on the release
buttons on both sides of the stand to raise
the arm of the stand as shown in the inset
of Figure 1, otherwise you could damage
the locking mechanism. The holder “cup”
can be positioned in any of the three
angles shown in the figure.

Disconnecting the Cable

Using the Wasp WDI4200

The Wasp WDI4200 normally functions by capturing and
decoding codes. The aiming system is activated on trigger
pull and indicates the center of the field of view which
should be positioned over the bar code:

Linear Bar

A beam illuminates the label. The projected pattern of 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 you will get a good
read. Successful reading is signaled by an audible tone plus
a goodread green spot LED indicator. Reference the Wasp
WDI4200 Product Reference Guide (PRG) on the Wasp
website 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 WDI4200 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 19

, 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.

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

Reading Parameters

Quick Reference Guide 19

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 WDI4200" 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.

Aiming System

A number of options for customizing control of the Aiming Sys­tem are available. See the Wasp WDI4200 PRG for more infor­mation and programming bar codes.

Good Read Green Spot Duration

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 imager 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 unde-

sired 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 Timeout1 pre-

vents undesired multiple reads.

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.

Operating Modes

Quick Reference Guide 21

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 white illumination switches on.
Scanning continues until a label is read or "maximum scan
on time" is reached.

Pick Mode

Specifies the ability of the reader to decode labels only when
they are close to the center of the aiming pattern, which is the
area indicated by the two blue arrows. Pick Mode is a Decoding
and Transmission process where bar codes that are not within
the configurable distance from the center of the aiming pattern
are not acknowledged or transmitted to the host. It is active
only while the scanner is in Trigger Single mode. If the scanner
switches to a different Read Mode, Pick Mode is automatically
disabled.

Multiple Label Reading

The reader offers a number of options for multiple label reading.
See the PRG or software configuration tool for descriptions of
these features and programming labels.

NOTE

This feature is not compatible with Multiple Labels Read­ing in a Volume. See the PRG for more information.
