INTRODUCTION 1 INTRODUCTION Wasp Barcode Technologies renews its range of industrial laser scanners introducing the WLS8600 family. Robustness and ergonomics remain unsurpassed: clearly audible beeper and bright "good read" LEDs for areas where noise levels are normally high; the aim mode, which helps point to the right code, has now been extended to the whole family.
WLS8600 2 INSTALLATION Connections should always be made with power OFF! CAUTION 2.1 WLS8600 INTERFACE CABLE CONNECTIONS The WLS8600 reader incorporates a multi-standard interface, which can be connected to a Host by plugging the correct interface cable into the connector and closing the cable cover. A. Rubber gasket B. Plastic boot C. Cable spacer D. Cover E.
INSTALLATION Follow the given procedure for correct cable insertion: Align 1 3 2 5 6 Notch 4 7 Arrow Tab Slip the cover over the cable. Push the plastic boot into the rubber gasket. Take care that the tab on the plastic boot is aligned with the notch in the rubber gasket. Push the plastic boot and gasket into the handle. Ensure that the “Front” marking on the plastic boot is facing out, with the arrow pointing towards the front of the scanner.

WLS8600 3 CONFIGURATION 3.1 3.1.1 CONFIGURATION METHODS Reading Configuration Barcodes This manual can be used for complete setup and configuration of your reader by following the setup procedures in this chapter (see par. 3.2 for an overview). If you wish to change the default settings, this manual provides complete configuration of your reader in an easy way. To configure your reader: 1) Open the folded page in Appendix C with the hex-numeric table and keep it open during the device configuration.
CONFIGURATION 3.2 SETUP PROCEDURES For WLS8600 Series readers, follow the setup procedures in pars. 3.3, and 3.4. Proceed as shown in the following diagram: BEGIN SETUP Follow the procedure indicated below. 1. Restore default parameters Scan the Restore Default barcode at section 3.3, WLS8600 Setup. 2. Scan the interface code Go to section 3.4, Interface Selection and choose the appropriate barcode for your application. END SETUP Your reader is now ready to read barcodes using the default settings.
WLS8600 3.3 1. WLS8600 SETUP Read the restore default parameters code below. Restore WLS8600 Default Ì$+$*oÎ After reading the above code, go to par. 3.4 Interface Selection.

Select the KEYBOARD TYPE if necessary (default = advanced keyboard).
CONFIGURATION WEDGE (CONTINUED) ALT MODE The ALT-mode selection allows barcodes sent to the PC to be interpreted correctly independently from the Keyboard Nationality used. You do not need to make a Keyboard Nationality selection. (default = Num Lock Unchanged). Make sure the Num Lock key on your keyboard is ON.
WLS8600 3.5 USB READER CONFIGURATION The USB interface is compatible with the following Operating Systems: Windows 98 (and later) Mac OS 8.0 (and later) IBM POS for Windows 4690 Operating System USB Start-up As with all USB devices, upon connection, the Host performs several checks by communicating with the device. During this phase normal operations are suspended (the LED on the WLS8600 reader blinks).

WLS8600 3.6 CHANGING DEFAULT SETTINGS Once your reader is setup, you can change the default parameters to meet your application needs. Refer to the preceding paragraphs for initial configuration in order to set the default values and select the interface for your application. In this manual, the configuration parameters are divided into logical groups making it easy to find the desired function based on its reference group.

ADVANCED FORMATTING ADVANCED FORMATTING Advanced formatting has been designed to offer you complete flexibility in changing the format of barcode data before transmitting it to the host system. This formatting will be performed when the barcode data meets certain criteria, which you will define in the following procedure.

REFERENCES 4.1.2 ACK/NACK Protocol WLS8600 Readers This parameter sets a transmission protocol in which the Host responds to the reader after every code transmitted. The Host sends an ACK character (06 HEX) in the case of good reception or the NACK character (15 HEX) requesting re-transmission, in the case of bad reception. data WLS8600 cable Host ACK or NACK ACK/NACK enabled If the reader does not receive an ACK or NACK, transmission is ended after the RX Timeout (see par. 4.1.4).
WLS8600 4.1.4 RX Timeout When the RS-232 interface is selected, the Host can be used to configure the device by sending it command strings (see Appendix A). This parameter can be used to automatically end data reception from the Host after the specified period of time.

MESSAGE FORMATTING When one read per cycle is selected, the device decodes only one code during the ON period and immediately turns the reader OFF. It is only possible to read another code when the next ON time occurs. In multiple reads per cycle, the ON period is extended so that the device can continue decoding codes until an OFF event occurs. For software trigger mode, the flash on period is immediately reset after each read and therefore extended.
