CHAPTER 3 DATA CAPTURE
Introduction
The WT6000 can be used with the following optional data capture accessories:
RS4000 laser scanner
RS6000 Hands-free imager
RS507 Hands-free imager.
Laser Scanning
WT6000 with an optional RS4000 laser scanner has the following features:
Reading of a variety of bar code symbologies, including the most popular linear and 1D code types.
Advanced intuitive laser aiming for easy point-and-shoot operation
Adaptive scanning.
Scanning Bar Codes
Imaging
The WT6000 with an optional RS507 or RS6000 imager has the following features:
Omnidirectional (360°) reading of a variety of bar code symbologies, including the most popular linear, postal,
PDF417, and 2D matrix code types.
Advanced intuitive laser aiming for easy point-and-shoot operation.
NOTE
Scanning procedures depend on the application and WT6000 configuration. An application may use
different scanning procedures from the one listed below.
3 - 2 WT6000 User Guide
The imager uses imaging technology to take a picture of a bar code, stores the resulting image in its memory, and
executes state-of-the-art software decoding algorithms to extract the bar code data from the image.
Operational Modes
The optional imager supports two modes of operation. Activate each mode pressing the Scan button.
Decode Mode: In this mode, the imager attempts to locate and decode bar codes within its field of view. The
imager remains in this mode as long as the user holds the scan button, or until it decodes a bar code.
Pick List Mode: This mode allows the user to selectively decode a bar code when more than one bar code is
in the imager’s field of view. To accomplish this, move the aiming crosshair center dot over the required bar
code to decode only that bar code. This feature is ideal for pick lists containing multiple bar codes and
manufacturing or transport labels containing more than one bar code (either 1D or 2D).
Scanning Considerations
Typically, scanning is a simple matter of aim, scan/decode and a few quick trial efforts master it. However, two
important considerations can be used to optimize any scanning performance:
Range
Any scanning device decodes well over a particular working range — minimum and maximum distances from
the bar code. This range varies according to bar code density and scanning device optics.
Scanning within range brings quick and constant decodes; scanning too close or too far away prevents
decodes. Move the scanner closer and further away to find the right working range for the bar codes being
scanned. However, the situation is complicated by the availability of various integrated scanning modules. The
best way to specify the appropriate working range per bar code density is through a chart called a decode zone
for each scan module. A decode zone simply plots working range as a function of minimum element widths of
bar code symbols. Refer to the WT6000 Integrator Guide for decode zones for the optional data capture
options.
Angle
Scanning angle is important for promoting quick decodes. When laser beams reflect directly back into the
scanner from the bar code, this specular reflection can “blind” the scanner.
To avoid this, scan the bar code so that the beam does not bounce directly back. But don’t scan at too sharp an
angle; the scanner needs to collect scattered reflections from the scan to make a successful decode. Practice
quickly shows what tolerances to work within.
\
Bar Code Capture with RS4000
To read a bar code, a scan-enabled application is required. The WT6000 contains the DataWedge application that
allows the user to enable the scanner to decode bar code data and display the bar code content. See DataWedge
on page 5-8 for information on enabling DataWedge.
NOTE
To enable Pick List Mode use DataWedge. Pick List can also be set in an application using a API command.
NOTE
Contact the Zebra Global Support Center if chronic scanning difficulties develop. Decoding of properly
printed bar codes should be quick and effortless.
Data Capture 3 - 3
1. Connect the RS4000 to the WT6000. See Chapter 5, Accessories for more information.
2. Ensure that a scan enabled application is loaded or DataWedge is enabled (see DataWedge on page 5-8 for
more information).
3. Press the trigger.
4. Aim the scan beam at the bar code.
Ensure the red scan beam covers the entire bar code. The Decode LED lights red to indicate that scanning is
in process, then lights green and a beep sounds, by default, to indicate the bar code was decoded
successfully.
Figure 3-1 Laser Scanner Aiming Pattern
5. Release the trigger.
Adaptive Scanning
The RS4000 contains the adaptive scanning feature that automatically adjusts the scan beam width for rapid and
easy scanning of bar codes from near contact to more than 200 inches away.
By default the RS4000 is set to wide scan beam width. When the user presses the trigger, the RS4000 determines
the distance from the bar code. For close bar codes the RS4000 sets a wide beam width and for far bar codes it
sets a narrow beam width. The RS4000 uses distance, bar code type and material to determine the correct scan
beam width.

Configuring for a Proxy Server
A proxy server is a server that acts as an intermediary for requests from clients seeking resources from other
servers. A client connects to the proxy server, requesting some service, such as a file, connection, web page, or
other resource, available from a different server. The proxy server evaluates the request according to its filtering
rules. For example, it may filter traffic by IP address or protocol. If the request is validated by the filter, the proxy
provides the resource by connecting to the relevant server and requesting the service on behalf of the client.
It is important for enterprise customers to be able to set up secure computing environments within their companies,
and proxy configuration is an essential part of doing that. Proxy configuration acts as a security barrier ensuring
that the proxy server monitors all traffic between the Internet and the intranet. This is normally an integral part of
security enforcement in corporate firewalls within intranets.

Wireless 4 - 11
Bluetooth
Bluetooth-equipped devices can communicate without wires, using frequency-hopping spread spectrum (FHSS)
radio frequency (RF) to transmit and receive data in the 2.4 GHz Industry Scientific and Medical (ISM) band
(802.15.1). Bluetooth wireless technology is specifically designed for short-range (10 meters (32.8 feet))
communication and low power consumption.
Devices with Bluetooth capabilities can exchange information (e.g., files, appointments, and tasks) with other
Bluetooth enabled devices such as printers, access points, and other mobile devices.
Adaptive Frequency Hopping
Adaptive Frequency Hopping (AFH) is a method of avoiding fixed frequency interferers, and can be used with
Bluetooth voice. All devices in the piconet (Bluetooth network) must be AFH-capable in order for AFH to work.
There is no AFH when connecting and discovering devices. Avoid making Bluetooth connections and discoveries
during critical 802.11b communications. AFH for Bluetooth consists of four main sections:
Channel Classification - A method of detecting an interference on a channel-by-channel basis, or
pre-defined channel mask.
Link Management - Coordinates and distributes the AFH information to the rest of the Bluetooth network.
Hop Sequence Modification - Avoids interference by selectively reducing the number of hopping channels.
Channel Maintenance - A method for periodically re-evaluating the channels.
When AFH is enabled, the Bluetooth radio “hops around” (instead of through) the 802.11b high-rate channels. AFH
coexistence allows Enterprise devices to operate in any infrastructure.
The Bluetooth radio in this device operates as a Class 2 device power class. The maximum output power is 2.5
mW and the expected range is 10 meters (32.8 ft.). A definition of ranges based on power class is difficult to obtain
due to power and device differences, and whether one measures open space or closed office space.
Security
The current Bluetooth specification defines security at the link level. Application-level security is not specified. This
allows application developers to define security mechanisms tailored to their specific need. Link-level security
occurs between devices, not users, while application-level security can be implemented on a per-user basis. The
Bluetooth specification defines security algorithms and procedures required to authenticate devices, and if needed,
encrypt the data flowing on the link between the devices. Device authentication is a mandatory feature of Bluetooth
while link encryption is optional.
Pairing of Bluetooth devices is accomplished by creating an initialization key used to authenticate the devices and
create a link key for them. Entering a common personal identification number (PIN) in the devices being paired
generates the initialization key. The PIN is never sent over the air. By default, the Bluetooth stack responds with no
key when a key is requested (it is up to user to respond to the key request event). Authentication of Bluetooth
devices is based-upon a challenge-response transaction. Bluetooth allows for a PIN or passkey used to create
other 128-bit keys used for security and encryption. The encryption key is derived from the link key used to
authenticate the pairing devices. Also worthy of note is the limited range and fast frequency hopping of the
Bluetooth radios that makes long-distance eavesdropping difficult.
Recommendations are:
NOTE
It is not recommended to perform Bluetooth wireless technology inquiry when high rate 802.11b
operation is required.

Bluetooth Profiles
The device supports the following Bluetooth services:
Service Discovery Protocol (SDP) - Handles the search for known and specific services as well as general
services.
Serial Port Profile (SPP) - Allows use of RFCOMM protocol to emulate serial cable connection between two
Bluetooth peer devices. For example, connecting the device to a printer.
Advanced Audio Distribution Profile (A2DP) - Allows the device to stream stereo-quality audio to a
wireless headset or wireless stereo speakers.
Audio/Video Remote Control Profile (AVRCP) - Allows the device to control A/V equipment to which a user
has access. It may be used in concert with A2DP.
Human Interface Device Profile (HID) - Allows Bluetooth keyboards, pointing devices, gaming devices and
remote monitoring devices to connect to the device.
Object Push Profile (OPP) - Allows the device to push and pull objects to and from a push server.
Headset Profile (HSP) - Allows a hands-free device, such as a Bluetooth headset, to place and receive calls
on the device.
Hands-Free Profile (HFP) - Allows car hands-free kits to communicate with the device in the car.
Personal Area Network (PAN) - Allows the use of Bluetooth Network Encapsulation Protocol to provide L3
networking capabilities over a Bluetooth link. Only PANU role is supported.
Out of Band (OOB) - Allows exchange of information used in the pairing process. Pairing is completed using
the Bluetooth radio, but requires information from the OOB mechanism. Using OOB with NFC enables
pairing when devices simply get close, rather than requiring a lengthy discovery process.
Bluetooth Power States
The Bluetooth radio is off by default.
Suspend - When the WT6000 goes into suspend mode, the Bluetooth radio stays on.
Airplane Mode - When the WT6000 is placed in Airplane Mode, the Bluetooth radio turns off. When Airplane
mode is disabled, the Bluetooth radio returns to the prior state. When in Airplane Mode, the Bluetooth radio
can be turned back on if desired.
Bluetooth Radio Power
Turn off the Bluetooth radio to save power or if entering an area with radio restrictions (e.g., an airplane). When the
radio is off, other Bluetooth devices cannot see or connect to the device. Turn on the Bluetooth radio to exchange
information with other Bluetooth devices (within range). Communicate only with Bluetooth radios in close proximity.
