Setup & Configuration

Chapter 5

In order to configure Wasp WLR 8900/8905 Scanners, you must familiarize yourself with the setup procedures on the following pages. The default settings of the Wasp WLR 8900/8905 Scanners are identified on each page and clearly marked using an asterisk (*). The default settings have been preprogrammed for the most common bar code configurations. Use the Setup & Configuration only to customize the Wasp WLR 8900/8905 Scanners settings. If you need to configure the scanner, the default settings will be overwritten. All the programmed settings are stored permanently in non-volatile memory; therefore, your configuration will be maintained even if the keyboard power to Wasp WLR 8900/8905 Scanners is removed by turning off your PC.

In order to configure Wasp WLR 8900/8905 Scanners, two basic steps need to be followed:

(1)Locate the group that contains the options to be changed.

(2)Scan the bar code representing the option to be changed. The scanner will sound two beeps.

To change Minimum/Maximum Length:

(1)Scan the Minimum or Maximum Length bar code.

(2)Scan a 2 digit value from the ASCII table on pages 31-34

(3)Scan the Minimum or Maximum Length bar code again.

Example: To have a minimum length bar code of 1, you must scan a 0 then 1, then scan the minimum bar code again. To have a maximum length bar code of 10, you must scan a 1 then 0, then scan the maximum bar code again.
