Preface
Regulatory Compliance Statements
FCC Warning Statement
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital
device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable
protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates,
uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with
the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is
no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does
cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by
turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by
one or more of the following measures:
–
Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
–
Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
–
Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the
receiver is connected.
–
Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
1. This Transmitter must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other
antenna or transmitter.
2. This equipment complies with FCC RF radiation exposure limits set forth for an
uncontrolled environment. To maintain compliance with FCC RF exposure compliance
requirements, avoid direct contact to the transmitting antenna during transmitting.
3. Any changes or modifications (including the antennas) made to this device that are not
expressly approved by the manufacturer may void the user’s authority to operate the
equipment.
FCC Label Statement
This device complies with part 15 of the FCC rules. Operation is subject to the following two
conditions:
1. This device may not cause harmful interference, and
2. This device must accept any interference received, including interference that may
cause undesired operation.
i
Canadian Compliance Statement
This Class B Digital apparatus meets all requirements of the Canadian Interference-Causing
Equipment Regulations.
Cet appareil numerique de la classe B respecte les exigences du Reglement sur le material
broilleur du Canada.
The device is certified to the requirements of RSS-139-1 for 2.4 GHz spread spectrum
devices.
European Conformity Statement
Declaration of Conformity with Regard to the R&TTE 1999/5/EC and EMC 89/336/ EEC
directives.
RoHS Statement
This device conforms to RoHS (Reduction Of Hazardous Sub-stances) European Union
regulations that set maximum concentration limits on hazardous materials used in electrical
and electronic equipment.
ii
Laser Information
The WPA1200 II series is certified in the U.S. to conform to the requirements of DHHS/CDRH
21CFR Subchapter J and to the requirements of IEC 825-1. Class II and Class 2 products are
not considered to be hazardous. The WPA1200 II series contains internally a Visible Laser
Diode (VLD) whose emissions do not exceed the maximum limits as set forth in the above
regulations. The scanner is designed so that there is no human access to harmful laser light
during normal operation, user maintenance or during prescribed service operations.
The laser safety warning label required by the DHHS/IEC for the WPA1200 II series' optional
laser scanner module is located on the memory compartment cover, on the back of the unit.
CAUTION! Use of controls or adjustments or performance of procedures other than those
specified herein may result in hazardous laser light. Use of optical instruments
with the scanner will increase eye hazard. Optical instruments include binoculars,
microscopes, and magnifying glasses. This does not include eyeglasses worn by
the user.
Battery Notices
The WPA1200 II is equipped with a Lithium-Ion battery pack and backup battery. Both
batteries will discharge after an extended period of not being used.
When both batteries are discharged, recharge the unit for 16 hours in order to fully charge the
main battery and backup battery. Recharge the WPA1200 II through the following:
1. Plug the USB charging cable to the WPA1200 II and plug the 5V/2A AC-DC adapter to
the power jack of the USB charging cable.
2. Place the WPA1200 II into the docking station and plug the 5V/2A AC-DC adapter to
the power jack of the docking station.
iii
If the main battery is removed, the backup battery ensures the data on the SDRAM is safe for
up to 6 hours. To prevent data loss, do not leave the WPA1200 II uncharged with the main
battery removed for an extended period. For more details, refer to page 8, Charging the
Battery.
Note: Rechargeable batteries are advised to be replaced every year, or after 500
charge/discharge cycles to guarantee optimal performance. It is normal for the battery
to balloon or expand after one year or the maximum 500 cycles. Although it does not
cause harm, it cannot be used again and must be disposed of according to the
location's safe battery disposal procedures.
If the performance decrease is greater than 20% in a Lithium-Ion battery, the battery
is at the end of its life cycle. Do not continue to use, and ensure the battery is
disposed of properly.
The length of time that a battery power lasts depends on the battery type and how the device
is used. Conserve the battery life through the following:
Avoid frequent full discharges. This places additional strain on the battery. Several
partial discharges with frequent recharges are better than a deep one.
Keep the lithium-Ion battery cool. Avoid a hot car. For prolonged storage, keep the
battery at a 40% charge level.
Do not leave the lithium-Ion battery discharged and unused for an extended period
because the battery will wear out and the longevity of the battery will be shorter.
Battery charge notice
It is important to consider the environment temperature whenever the Lithium-Ion battery
pack is charged. Charging is most efficient at normal room temperature or in a slightly cooler
environment. It is essential that batteries are charged within the stated range of 10°C to 45°C.
Charging batteries outside of the specified range could damage the batteries and shorten
their charging life cycle.
CAUTION! Do not charge batteries at a temperature lower than 0°C, which will increase the
internal resistance to cause heat and make the batteries unstable and unsafe.
Please use a battery temperature-detecting device for a charger to ensure a safe
charging temperature range. Further, to protect and avoid the battery from
inflating, the battery is detected for thermal protection and will not be charged
when the temperature of the battery is over 50 degrees.
Storage and safety notice
Although charged Lithium-Ion batteries may be left unused for several months, their capacity
may be depleted due to build up of internal resistance. If this happens they will require
recharging prior to use. Lithium-Ion batteries may be stored at temperatures between -20°C to
iv
60°C, however they may deplete more rapidly at the higher temperature ranges. It is
recommended to store batteries within normal room temperature ranges.

Chapter 1 – Getting Started
1.1 Introducing the WPA1200 II
The WPA1200 II is a rugged, compact and lightweight mobile computer with a
Windows Mobile 6.1 operating system, integrated laser bar code scanner,
color LCD with touch screen, keypad, IrDA interface, and wireless
communication capability. It provides users with a standard Windows-based
environment for customizing and operating the device. To reduce the total cost
of ownership, the WPA1200 II is sealed to meet IP54 standards and has
undergone multiple drop tests to prevent downtime.
