1 INTRODUCTION
1.1 WDT60 DESCRIPTION
The WDT60 contains the most innovative technical features, providing them to the
user in an ergonomic and elegant form factor. The accelerometer, the vibrator alert
and the 3 LEDs help to not waste time in the configuration and usage of the product.
Working with the WDT60 becomes an easy pleasure.
Great aesthetics do not put the robustness on a second level. The WDT60 has been
designed for survival in the industrial environmental, outside or inside the four walls.
The reliability of the product continues with the architecture chosen: an 806MHz
processor working with 256 MB of RAM and 512 MB of Flash. A Micro SD card slot
supporting micro SDHC storage cards provides for virtually unlimited storage space.
The WDT60 has been equipped with a 1D laser scanner.
The WDT60 wireless technology provides two radios with internal antennas:
Bluetooth® EDR for fast and close data connections and 802.11 b/g/n Cisco CCX v4
certified Wi-Fi for quick wireless network access.
The WDT60 integrates the latest Windows Embedded Handheld 6.5, tailored for
mobile devices.
Rechargeable battery packs are not initially fully charged. Therefore
the first operation to perform is to charge them. See paragraph 2.1.

insert the card, proceed as follows:
1. Turn off the WDT60.
2. Shift the battery latch to the left and remove the battery pack:
3. Open the card slot and insert the microSD card with the written part downward:

1.2.1 Removing the MicroSD Card
To remove the microSD card, follow the steps above to access the microSD card
cage under the battery, and remove it from the microSD slot.
Follow proper ESD pr
microprocessors in the WDT60 or the microSD card itself.
CAUTION
Proper ESD precautions include, but are not limited to, working on
an ESD mat and ensuring that the operator is properly grounded.
Do not force the card. If you feel resistance, remove the card, check
the orientation, and reinsert it.
Do not use the microSD card slot for any other accessories.

NOTE
CAUTION
2.1 CHARGING THE BATTERY PACK

The battery icon on the Taskbar indicates when the battery pack is low.
It is possible to recharge the battery pack by connecting the power supply directly to
the WDT60.
Alternatively, it is also possible to recharge the battery pack by using a Single Cradle.
them. See below.
Annual replacement of rechargeable battery pack avoids possible
risks or abnormalities and ensures maximum performance.
The battery pack autonomy varies according to many factors, such
as the frequency of barcode scanning, RF usage, battery life,
storage, environmental conditi ons, etc.

Moreover recharging is possible by USB direct connection with the host computer,
but with longer charging times.
Insert the micro-USB cable output plug into the micro-USB connector
of the WDT60, making sure that the arrow on the plug faces upwards:
NOTE
During the charging process the LED positioned at the right side of the display glows
red constantly. Once the charging process has been completed this LED glows green
constantly.
If the battery pack is removed from the PDA, it can be recharged by inserting it into
the rear slot of a Single Cradle.
Do not use the WDT60 until standard batteries are charged for
minimum 4 hours and extended batteries are charged for minimum 6
CAUTION
hours.
Even if the storage temperature range is wider, in order to achieve
the longest battery life, store the terminal and the spare batteries
between 20 to 30 ºC (68 to 86 ºF).
NOTE
In order to achieve the maximum charging rate the WDT60 should be
charged beetween 0-40 °C.
Never charge the main device or spare batteries in a closed space
where excessive heat can build up.

2.2 REPLACING THE BATTERY PACK
To correctly replace the battery pack, proceed as follows.
1. Turn off the WDT60.
2. Shift the battery latch to the left and remove the battery pack:

Installing, charging and/or any other action should be done by
authorized personnel and following this manual.
WARNING
The battery pack may get hot, explode, ignite, and/or cause serious
injury if exposed to abusive conditions.
If the battery pack is replaced with an improper type, there is risk of
explosion and/or fire.
Do not place the battery pack in or near a fire or other heat source;
do not place the battery pack in direct sunlight, or use or store the
battery pack inside unventilated areas in hot weather; do not place
the battery pack in microwave ovens, in clothes dryers, in high
pressure containers, on induction cook surfaces or similar devices.
Doing so may cause the battery pack to generate heat, explode or
ignite. Using the battery pack in this manner may also result in a loss
of performance and a shortened life expectancy.
Use only a Wasp approved power supply. The use of an alternative
power supply will void the product warranty, may cause product
damage and may cause heat, an explosion, or fire.
The area in which the units are charged should be clear of debris
and combustible materials or chemica ls.
Do not use the battery pack of this terminal to power devices other
than this PDA.
Immediately discontinue use of the battery pack if, while using,
charging or storing the battery pack, the battery pack emits an
unusual smell, feels hot, changes colour or shape, or appears
abnormal in any other way.
Do not short-circuit the battery pack contacts connecting the positive
terminal and negative terminal. This might happen, for example,
when you carry a spare battery pack in your pocket or purse;
accidental short–circuiting can occur when a metallic object such as
a coin, clip, or pen causes direct connection of the contacts of the
battery pack (these look like metal strips on the battery pack). Short–
circuiting the terminals may damage the battery pack or the
connecting object.
Do not apply voltages to the batter y pack contact s.
Do not pierce the battery pack with nails, strike it with a hammer,
step on it or otherwise subject it to strong impacts, pressures, or
shocks.

WARNING
Do not disassemble or modify (i.e. bend, crush or deform) the battery
pack. The battery pack contains safety and protection devices,
which, if damaged, may cause the battery pack to generate heat,
explode or ignite.
In case of leakage of liquid from the battery, avoid contact with liquid
the skin or eyes. If the contact occurs, immediately wash the affected
area with water and consult a doctor.
Do not solder directly onto the battery pack.
Do not expose the battery pack to liquids.
Avoid any knocks or excessive vibrations. If the device or the battery
is dropped, especially on a hard surface, you should take it to the
nearest Authorised Repair Centre for inspection before continuing to
use it.
Do not replace the battery pack when the device is turned on.
Do not remove or damage the battery pack’s label.
Do not use the battery pack if it is damaged in any part.
Battery pack usage by children should be supervised.
Collect and recycle waste batteries separately from the device in
compliance with European Directive 2006/66/EC, 2011/65,
2002/96/EC and subsequent modifications, with US and China
regulatory laws and regulations about the environment.
1 WDT60™
In order to guarantee an adequate operating autonomy, when
replacing the battery pack the PDA checks the battery energy level.
If the battery is not sufficiently charged, the WDT60 does not turn on
(when pressing the ON/OFF key).
NOTE
In this case, either substitute the battery pack with a charged one
(sufficiently charged) or insert the WDT60 into a powered cradle or
plug it into the direct power supply.
To maximize battery life, turn off radios when they are not needed.
