The Wasp WWS550i is a wireless barcode scanner designed for various data capture applications, offering Bluetooth connectivity for seamless integration with a range of devices. This Quick Start Guide provides essential information for unpacking, charging, setting up, and configuring the scanner.
The Wasp WWS550i functions as a portable barcode scanner, capable of reading and transmitting barcode data to a host device via Bluetooth. It is primarily used for inventory management, point-of-sale, asset tracking, and other data collection tasks where mobility and wireless operation are crucial. The scanner supports both Bluetooth SPP (Serial Port Protocol) and Bluetooth HID (Human Interface Device) modes, with HID being the default and recommended setting for most connections as it emulates a keyboard. This allows the scanner to input data directly into any application that accepts keyboard input, such as Notepad, MS Word, or custom inventory software. The device is designed for ease of use, with a focus on quick setup and reliable data transmission.
While specific technical specifications like scan engine type, decode capabilities, battery life, and operating range are not explicitly detailed in the provided pages, the manual highlights key operational aspects. The scanner requires an initial charge of 4 hours before first use. It connects to Bluetooth-enabled devices, with a strong emphasis on supporting HID connections. The device's firmware version can be checked by scanning a specific barcode. The "Link Quality" setting affects transmission speed and security, with "Link Quality On" being the default (more secure, slower) and "Link Quality Off" offering faster but potentially less secure data transfer. The scanner stores all programmed settings permanently in non-volatile memory, meaning configurations persist even after power cycles.
The WWS550i offers several user-friendly features for setup and daily operation:
The manual implicitly suggests several maintenance-related practices:
In summary, the Wasp WWS550i is a versatile and user-configurable barcode scanner designed for efficient wireless data capture, with a strong emphasis on easy Bluetooth connectivity and flexible data output options.
