Chapter 5. Setup & Configuration - Wasp WCS 3900 Programming Manual

Chapter 5
Setup & Configuration
In order to configure Wasp WCS 3900 / 3905 Scanners, you must familiarize
yourself with the setup procedures on the following pages. The default settings
of the scanners are identified on each page and clearly marked using an
asterisk (*). The default settings have been programmed for the most
common bar code configurations. Use the setup & configuration barcodes
only to customize the WCS 3900 / 3905 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 the WCS
3900 / 3905 Scanners are removed by turning off your PC.
In order to configure Wasp WCS 3900 / 3905 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 on page 15.
(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.
