Wasp WPS100 Product Reference Guide To scan a bar code, present it to the exit window of the scanner (“presentation” scanning) or move it from side-to-side in a sweeping motion (“swipe” scanning) as show below: Figure 2-7. “Presentation” scanning Figure 2-8.
Scanning Beeper Definitions The scanner communicates with the user by emitting different beeper sequences and patterns. Table 2-1 defines beep sequences that occur during both normal scanning and while programming the scanner. Table 2-1. Standard Beeper Definitions Beeper Sequence Indication Standard Use 3 short high beeps Power up. Short high beep A bar code symbol was decoded (if decode beeper is enabled). 4 long low beeps A transmission error was detected in a scanned symbol. The data is ignored.
Wasp WPS100 Product Reference Guide Table 2-1. Standard Beeper Definitions Beeper Sequence Indication Lo/hi/lo beep The Code 39 buffer was erased or there was an attempt to clear or transmit an empty buffer. Lo/hi beep A successful transmission of buffered data. Host Specific USB only 4 short high beeps Scanner has not completed initialization. Wait several seconds and scan again. Scanner gives a power-up beep after scanning a USB Device Type.
Scanning LED Definitions In addition to beeper sequences, the scanner communicates with the user using an LED display. Table 2-2 defines LED flashes that display during scanning. Table 2-2. Standard LED Definitions LED Indication Off No power is applied to the scanner. Green The scanner is on and “ready to scan.” Momentary flash A bar code was successfully decoded. Slow continuous flashing The scanner is in programming mode.
Wasp WPS100 Product Reference Guide Aiming Do not hold the scanner directly over the bar code. Laser light reflecting directly back into the scanner from the bar code is known as specular reflection. This specular reflection can make decoding difficult. You can tilt the scanner up to 45° forward or back and achieve a successful decode (Figure 2-9). Simple practice quickly shows what tolerances to work within. Specular Reflection +4 45 45 Bar Code Figure 2-9.

Chapter 4 User Preferences Introduction You have the option to program the WPS100 scanner to perform various functions, or activate different features. This chapter describes each user preference feature and provides the programming bar codes necessary for selecting these features for your WPS100 scanner. Before programming, follow the instructions in Chapter 1, Getting Started.
Wasp WPS100 Product Reference Guide If you are not using a USB cable, you must select a host type (see each host chapter for specific host information). After you hear the power-up beeps, select a host type. This only needs to be done once, upon the first power-up when connected to a new host. To return all features to their default values, all you need to do is scan the Set All Defaults bar code on page 4-5. Throughout the programming bar code menus, default values are indicated with asterisks (*).
User Preferences User Preferences Default Parameters Table 4-1 lists the defaults for user preferences parameters. If you wish to change any option, scan the appropriate bar code(s) provided in the User Preferences section beginning on page 4-5. Note: See Appendix A, Standard Default Parameters for all user preferences, hosts, symbologies, and miscellaneous default parameters. Table 4-1.
Wasp WPS100 Product Reference Guide Table 4-1.
User Preferences User Preferences Set Default Parameter Scanning this bar code returns all parameters to the default values listed in Table A-1 on page A-1.
Wasp WPS100 Product Reference Guide Beeper Tone To select a decode beep frequency (tone), scan the Low Frequency, Medium Frequency, or High Frequency bar code.
User Preferences Beeper Volume To select a beeper volume, scan the Low Volume, Medium Volume, or High Volume bar code.
Wasp WPS100 Product Reference Guide Volume Change Trigger Delay The volume on the WPS100 scanner is adjusted by pressing and holding the trigger for a certain amount of time, after which the scanner changes the volumes, and beeps with the new volume. The parameters below control the length of time needed to hold the trigger before the volume is adjusted.
User Preferences Laser On Time This parameter sets the maximum time that decode processing continues during a scan attempt. It is programmable in 0.1 second increments from 0.5 to 10 seconds. The default Laser On Time is 3.0 seconds. To set a Laser On Time, scan the bar code below. Next, scan two numeric bar codes beginning on page D-1 in Appendix D that correspond to the desired on time. Single digit numbers must have a leading zero. For example, to set an On Time of 0.
Wasp WPS100 Product Reference Guide Beep After Good Decode Scan a bar code below to select whether or not the scanner beeps after a good decode. If Do Not Beep After Good Decode is selected, the beeper still operates during parameter menu scanning and indicates error conditions.
User Preferences Low Power Blink After a period of inactivity, the scanner will go into a reduced power mode. This parameter controls how aggressively power is conserved, and therefore determines the method of waking the scanner up. If “Low Power - Blink Mode” is selected, then the scanner (after a period of inactivity) will blink infrequently to save power. To restore the scanner to full power mode, the user must simply use the scanner by presenting a barcode.
Wasp WPS100 Product Reference Guide Scan Pattern Mode The WPS100 has a very aggressive scan pattern that is not only omnidirectional, but also raster. If a static omnidirectional pattern is desired, scan the “Omnidirectional Pattern” parameter below to change the scan pattern.
User Preferences Single-Line Aim Duration The LS 9200 can enter the single-line scan mode by tapping the trigger. Once in this mode, each trigger pull will attempt to decode the barcode in front of the scanner. After a period of inactivity while the trigger is not pressed, the scanner will revert to the omnidirectional pattern. This parameter controls the length of the period of inactivity in single-line mode before the scanner reverts to the omnidirectional pattern.
Wasp WPS100 Product Reference Guide Single-Line Aim Duration (Continued) Aim Duration 4 sec Aim Duration 5 sec 4-14
User Preferences Timeout Between Decodes Timeout Between Decodes, Same Symbol This parameter sets the minimum time between decodes of different symbols. It is programmable in 0.1-second increments from 0.0 to 9.9 seconds. Setting this above 0.4 seconds is recommended.) The default for this parameter is 0.6 seconds. Scan the bar code below to select a new timeout. Next, scan two numeric bar codes beginning in Numeric Bar Codes on page D-1 that correspond to the desired timeout.
Wasp WPS100 Product Reference Guide Time Delay to Low Power Mode This parameter sets the time that the scanner remains active after any scanning activity. Scan one of the four options. Depending on the selection, the scanner enters a sleep mode 15, 30, 60 or 90 minutes after the last attempted decode. To awaken the scanner, please refer to the explanation of the Low Power Blink parameter on page 4-11.
User Preferences Time Delay to Low Power Mode (Continued) 60 Minutes 90 Minutes 4-17
Wasp WPS100 Product Reference Guide Linear UPC/EAN Decode This option applies to code types containing two adjacent blocks (e.g., UPC-A, EAN-8, EAN-13). When enabled, a bar code is transmitted only when both the left and right blocks are successfully decoded within one laser scan. Enable this option when bar codes are in proximity to each other.
Chapter 5 Keyboard Wedge Interface Introduction This chapter covers Keyboard Wedge interface information for setting up your scanner. This interface type is used to attach the scanner between the keyboard and host computer. The scanner translates the bar code data into keystrokes. The host computer accepts the keystrokes as if they originate from the keyboard. This mode of operation allows adding bar code reading functionality to a system designed for manual keyboard input.

Wasp WPS100 Product Reference Guide Ignore Unknown Characters Unknown characters are characters the host does not recognize. When Send Bar Codes With Unknown Characters is selected, all bar code data is sent except for unknown characters, and no error beeps sound on the scanner. When Do Not Send Bar Codes With Unknown Characters is selected, bar code data is sent up to the first unknown character and then an error beep will sound on the scanner.
Keyboard Wedge Interface Keystroke Delay This is the delay in milliseconds between emulated keystrokes. Scan a bar code below to increase the delay when hosts require a slower transmission of data.
Wasp WPS100 Product Reference Guide Intra-Keystroke Delay When enabled, an additional delay is inserted between each emulated key depression and release. This sets the Keystroke Delay parameter to a minimum of 5 msec as well.
Keyboard Wedge Interface Alternate Numeric Keypad Emulation This allows emulation of most other country keyboard types not listed in Keyboard Wedge Country Types (Country Codes) on page 5-6 in a Microsoft operating system environment.
Wasp WPS100 Product Reference Guide Caps Lock On When enabled, the scanner emulates keystrokes as if the Caps Lock key is always pressed.
Keyboard Wedge Interface Caps Lock Override When enabled, on AT or AT Notebook hosts, the keyboard ignores the state of the Caps Lock key. Therefore, an ‘A’ in the bar code is sent as an ‘A’ no matter what the state of the keyboard’s Caps Lock key. Enable Caps Lock Override *Disable Caps Lock Override Note: If both Caps Lock On and Caps Lock Override are enabled, Caps Lock Override takes precedence.
Wasp WPS100 Product Reference Guide Convert Wedge Data When enabled, the scanner will convert all bar code data to the selected case.
Keyboard Wedge Interface Function Key Mapping ASCII values under 32 are normally sent as a control-key sequences (see Table 6-2 on page 6-18). When this parameter is enabled, the keys in bold are sent in place of the standard key mapping. Table entries that do not have a bold entry remain the same whether or not this parameter is enabled.
Wasp WPS100 Product Reference Guide FN1 Substitution When enabled, this allows replacement of any FN1 characters in an EAN 128 bar code with a Key Category and Key Value choose by the user (see FN1 Substitution Values on page 8-8).

Wasp WPS100 Product Reference Guide Symbology - Specific Security Levels Redundancy Level The WPS100 offer four levels of decode redundancy. Higher redundancy levels are selected for decreasing levels of bar code quality. As redundancy levels increase, the scanner’s aggressiveness decreases. Select the redundancy level appropriate for the bar code quality. Redundancy Level 1 The following code types must be successfully read twice before being decoded: Table 7-2.
Symbologies Redundancy Level 2 The following code types must be successfully read twice before being decoded: Table 7-3. Redundancy Level 2 Code Types Code Type All Length All Redundancy Level 2 Redundancy Level 3 Level 3 ensures that the enabled linear bar code types are read twice before reporting a good decode. The following codes must be read three times: Table 7-4.
Wasp WPS100 Product Reference Guide Redundancy Level 4 The following code types must be successfully read three times before being decoded: Table 7-5.
Symbologies Security Level The WPS100 offer four levels of decode security for the delta bar codes. These include the Code 128 family, UPC/EAN, Code 93 and Scanlet. Increasing levels of security are provided for decreasing levels of bar code quality. There is an inverse relationship between security and scanner aggressiveness, so be sure to choose only that level of security necessary for any given application.
Wasp WPS100 Product Reference Guide Security Level 2 Choose this option if Security Level 1 fails to eliminate misdecodes. Security Level 2 Security Level 3 If you have tried Security Level 2, and are still experiencing misdecodes, select this security level. Be advised, selecting this option is an extreme measure against misdecoding severely out of spec bar codes. Selection of this level of security may significantly impair the decoding ability of the scanner.
Symbologies Symbology - Intercharacter Gap The Code 39 and Codabar symbologies have an intercharacter gap that is customarily quite small. Due to various bar code-printing technologies, this gap may grow larger than the maximum size allowed, causing the scanner to be unable to decode the symbol. If this problem is encountered, then the “Large Intercharacter Gaps” parameter should be scanned, to tolerate these out-of-specification barcodes.

In addition to any single character prefix already selected, the Code ID character is inserted between the prefix and the decoded symbol. The user may select no Code ID character, a Symbol Code ID character, or an AIM Code ID character.
Miscellaneous Scanner Options Transmit Code ID Character (Continued) *None Prefix/Suffix Values A prefix/suffix may be appended to scan data for use in data editing. These values are set by scanning a four-digit number (i.e., four bar codes) that corresponds to key codes for various terminals. Code 39 Full ASCII to Full ASCII Coorelation is host-dependent, and therefore described in the “ASCII Character Set” Table for the appropriate interface. Numeric bar codes begin on page D-1 in Appendix D.

Wasp WPS100 Product Reference Guide FN1 Substitution Values The Wedge and USB HID Keyboard hosts support a FN1 Substitution feature. In this feature, if enabled, any FN1 character (0x1b) in an EAN128 barcode is substituted for this value. This value defaults to 7013 (Enter Key) 1. Scan the bar code below. FN1 Substitution Value (Value 6) 2. Look up the keystroke for FN1 Substitution in the ASCII Character Set table for the currently installed host interface.
Miscellaneous Scanner Options Scan Data Options To change the Scan Data Transmission Format, scan the Scan Options bar code below. Then select one of four options: • Data As Is • • • When you have made your selection, scan the Enter bar code on page 8-11. If you make a mistake, scan the Data Format Cancel bar code on page 8-11. If you need to have a carriage return/enter after each bar code scanned, scan the following bar codes in order: 1.

Wasp WPS100 Product Reference Guide Transmit “No Read” Message Scan a bar code below to select whether or not a “No Read” message is transmitted. When enabled, the characters NR are transmitted when a bar code is not decoded. Any prefixes or suffixes which are enabled are appended around this message. When disabled, if a symbol does not decode, nothing is sent to the host.
Chapter 9 Advanced Data Formatting Introduction Advanced Data Formatting (ADF) is a means of customizing data before transmission to your host device. Scan data can be edited to suit your particular requirements. ADF can be implemented through scanning a related series of bar codes, which begin on page 9-7. Rules: Criteria Linked to Actions In ADF, data is customized through rules. These rules perform detailed actions when the data meets certain criteria.
Wasp WPS100 Product Reference Guide Using ADF Bar Codes When you program a rule, make sure the rule is logically correct. Plan ahead before you start scanning. To program each data formatting rule: • Start the Rule. Scan the Begin New Rule bar code on page 9-7. • Criteria. Scan the bar codes for all pertinent criteria. Criteria can include code type (e.g., Code 128), code length, or data that contains a specific character string (e.g., the digits “129”).
Advanced Data Formatting The distribution center uses a PC with dedicated control characters for manufacturer ID , part number , and destination code . At this center the UPC data is treated as manufacturer ID code.
Wasp WPS100 Product Reference Guide If you made any mistakes while entering this rule, scan the Quit Entering Rules bar code on page 9-9. If you already saved the rule, scan the Erase Previously Saved Rule bar code on page 9-9. Alternate Rule Sets ADF rules may be grouped into one of four alternate sets which can be turned on and off when needed. This is useful when you want to format the same message in different ways.
Advanced Data Formatting To switch between the two sets of rules, a “switching rule” must be programmed. This rule specifies what type of bar code must be scanned to switch between the rule sets. For example, in the case of the “sale” rule above, the rule programmer wants the cashier to scan the bar code “M” before a sale. To do this, a rule can be entered as follows: When scanning a bar code of length 1 that begins with “M”, select rule set number 1. Another rule could be programmed to switch back.
Wasp WPS100 Product Reference Guide For example, if the THIRD rule states: When scanning a bar code of any length, send all data, then send the ENTER key. And the SECOND rule states: When scanning a Code 128 bar code of length 12, send the first four characters, then send the ENTER key, then send all remaining data. If a Code 128 bar code of length 12 were scanned, the THIRD rule would be in effect. The SECOND rule would appear to not function.
Advanced Data Formatting Special Commands Pause Duration This parameter allows a pause to be inserted in the data transmission. Pauses are set by scanning a two-digit number (i.e., two bar codes), and are measured in 0.1 second intervals. For example, scanning bar codes “0” and “1” inserts a 0.1 second pause; “5” and “0” gives you a 5 second delay. Numeric bar codes begin on page D-1 in Numeric Bar Codes. If you make an error or wish to change your selection, scan Cancel bar code on page 8-11.
Wasp WPS100 Product Reference Guide Save Rule Scan this bar code to save the rule you entered. Save Rule Erase Use these bar codes to erase criteria, actions, or rules.

Glossary Aperture The opening in an optical system defined by a lens or baffle that establishes the field of view. AIM The Automatic Identification Manufacturers Inc., a trade association. ASCII American Standard Code for Information Interchange. A 7 bit-plusparity code representing 128 letters, numerals, punctuation marks, and control characters. It is a standard data transmission code in the U.S.
Wasp WPS100 Product Reference Guide Byte On an addressable boundary, eight adjacent binary digits (0 and 1) combined in a pattern to represent a specific character or numeric value. Bits are numbered from the right, 0 through 7, with bit 0 the loworder bit. One byte in memory is used to store one ASCII character. CDRH Center for Devices and Radiological Health. A federal agency responsible for regulating laser product safety.
Glossary Code Length Number of data characters in a bar code between the start and stop characters, not including those characters. Continuous Code A bar code or symbol in which all spaces within the symbol are parts of characters. There are no intercharacter gaps in a continuous code. The absence of gaps allows for greater information density. Dead Zone An area within a scanner's field of view, in which specular reflection may prevent a successful decode.
Wasp WPS100 Product Reference Guide IEC (825) Class 1 This is the lowest power IEC laser classification. Conformity is ensured through a software restriction of 120 seconds of laser operation within any 1000 second window and an automatic laser shutdown if the scanner's oscillating mirror fails. Intercharacter Gap The space between two adjacent bar code characters in a discrete code.
Glossary Percent Decode The average probability that a single scan of a bar code would result in a successful decode. In a well-designed bar code scanning system, that probability should approach near 100%. Print Contrast Signal (PCS) Measurement of the contrast (brightness difference) between the bars and spaces of a symbol. A minimum PCS value is needed for a bar code symbol to be scannable.
Wasp WPS100 Product Reference Guide Start/Stop Character A pattern of bars and spaces that provides the scanner with start and stop reading instructions and scanning direction. The start and stop characters are normally to the left and right margins of a horizontal code. Substrate A foundation material on which a substance or image is placed.
