Before You Begin Using Your WDT3200
Before using the WDT3200, please ensure the battery is fully charged.
There are three ways to charge your WDT3200:
ꢀ
ꢀ
ꢀ
Docking Station
RS232/Charging cable or USB/Charging cable
Rechargeable Lithium-Ion battery pack
CAUTION: There is a high risk of data loss if the WDT3200's backup battery is
not fully charged. This data loss can occur if the main battery has been drained
and the unit is not connected to the AC adaptor. For this reason, it is crucial that
before you charge the main battery, you make sure the backup battery switch is
set to ON. For further information on turning on the backup battery switch,
please see the next page.
Wasp Barcode Technologies recommends that you charge the battery at least 12
hours before using for the first time. After the initial charge, a fully drained
battery can be recharged in about 4 hours. While charging the main battery the
backup battery will also be charged if the backup battery switch is set to “ON”.
Installing the Battery Pack
1. Remove the battery door.
2. Move the backup battery switch to the ON position.

The WDT3200 has an integrated laser scanner capable of reading all major bar code
labels.
Chapter 3. Power system
Charging the Lithium-Ion Battery Pack
The WDT3200's batteries can be charged via the USB or serial communication
cable, or via the optional docking station - both using the included AC adaptor.
Please charge the battery for at least 4 hours per session to ensure a full charge.
Please note that the first time charge should be for at least 12 hours (see below).
Charging the Main and Backup Battery for the First Time
When first charging the WDT3200, please allow at least 12 hours to fully charge
both the main and backup batteries. When the WDT3200 arrives from the
factory the backup battery switch is in the OFF position in order to protect the
backup battery. Before charging the WDT3200, make sure the backup battery
switch is moved to the ON position. The backup battery switch can be found
inside the main battery compartment. Data loss can occur if the backup battery
is not adequately charged - therefore it is imperative to ensure that the backup
battery switch is in the ON position before charging for the first time.
Note: A properly charged backup battery can store data for up to 72 hours
without power from the main battery. This is not recommended. Please make
sure an adequately charged main battery or AC power is connected. Do not rely
on the backup battery for other than unusual or emergency situations. To
prevent data loss due to backup battery failure (always a slim possibility), please
minimize the amount of time that the backup battery has to operate without the
main battery pack installed or while disconnected from AC power.
Environmental Consideration for Charging
It is important to consider the temperature when you are charging the Lithium-Ion battery
pack. The process is most efficient at normal room temperature or slightly cooler. It is
17

WDT 3200 Product Reference Guide
essential that you charge batteries within the stated range of -5°C to 50°C (23°F to
122°F). Charging batteries outside of the specified range could damage the batteries and
shorten their charging life cycle.
Power Status Indication
When the "Main Batteries Very Low" icon appears, charging the main battery
pack as soon as possible is highly recommended in order to avoid system
shutdown.
When the "Backup Battery Low" icon appears it indicates that the backup battery
is low and needs to be charged.
How to Save Battery Power
Automatic shutdown of the WDT3200
The WDT3200 will enter idle mode when there is no task, or all tasks are waiting
for input. In the default setting, the WDT3200 will automatically turn itself off if it
remains idle for 3 minutes and when there is no external charging power applied.
Pressing the power button will return the WDT3200 to where it was at the time of
automatic shutdown.
Note: Suggestion 1: Turn off wireless mode if you are not using it. This will
conserve battery power.
Suggestion 2: Disable the I/O card if Internet access is not required.

Storage and Safety Precautions
Batteries should be stored in an open environment and should be placed where
there is no risk of accidental shorting or other damage. Although charged Li-Ion
batteries may be left unused for several months, their capacity may be reduced
due to back up and internal resistance. If this happens they will require recharging
prior to use. Li-Ion batteries may be stored at temperatures between -4°F and
158°F (-20°C to 70°C).
Backlight Setting
The backlight for color display is user-defined. There are two tabs – one for
Battery Power and the other for External Power.

Using ActiveSync
Using Microsoft ActiveSync, you can synchronize and transfer information
between your desktop computer and terminal. The most current version of
With ActiveSync, you can also:
• Back up and restore your device data.
• Copy (rather than synchronize) files between your device and desktop
computer.
• Control when synchronization occurs by selecting a synchronization mode.
• For example, you can synchronize continually while connected to your
desktop computer or only when you choose the synchronize command.
• Select which information types are synchronized and control how much
data is synchronized. For example, you can choose how many weeks of
past appointments you want synchronized.
Before beginning installation, carefully read the following:
• Because you will be restarting your computer during installation, save your
work and quit all programs before you begin.
• To set up your communication settings, the WDT3200 serial cable is
required to connect the WDT3200 to your host computer.
• If you run the Windows NT® operating system with a service pack, you will
be informed during setup that you may need to reinstall the service pack.
Try connecting first. If unsuccessful, reinstall the latest service pack.
Requirements
To synchronize, ActiveSync version 3.7 or higher must be installed on your
desktop computer. The WDT3200 terminal ships with ActiveSync already
installed.
To install ActiveSync on your desktop computer, please link to Microsoft website
to get the free download driver.

Chapter 5. Useful Utilities
Introduction
This chapter discusses software applications you can use to make your
experience with the WDT3200 more productive.
Scanner Setting
When it is necessary for you to change the default barcode symbologies for a
different application, Scanner Control Panel allows you to change default
symbologies, place delimiter characters behind scanned data, and save the
settings. Run this program from \Start\Setting\Control Panel\Scanner
Setting.exe. An example of the Scanner Control Panel/Settings tab is shown
below:
Scan2Key
This program is enabled by default.
The Scan2Key application can route input from the scanner port to the keyboard
buffer, with the result that all scanned data will be treated as if it were input from
the keypad. With this router, scanned data can be directly input into generic
applications like MS Pocket Word.
