External Wedge Installation on PC or Mac

1. Unplug the keyboard cable from where it plugs into the back of the

computer, and note its location. (Note: the PC's F30/1 Y cable is
convertible from a 5 pin cable to a 6 pin minidin by simply switching
the adapter from one side of the Y cable to another, so match your
keyboard requirement. Be sure not to plug into the mouse port by
mistake.

2. Plug the keyboard cable into the "Y" cable's round female DIN

connector.

3. With the power OFF on the computer, Plug the "Y" cable's male

DIN connector into the back of the PC where the keyboard
previously plugged into. For the Mac, plug into any ADB port; but,
preferably on the host.

4. Plug the modular telephone style jack at the Y end of the "Y" cable

into the WDP Reader's "Y" cable port. If you have an Integrated
Laser or Integrated CCD, the RJ45 telephone connector end of the
"Y" cable will plug into the Integrated Laser or Integrated CCD's
small black "coupling connector" instead.

5. If you have a decoder box, plug the wand, laser scanner, CCD touch

scanner or bar code slot scanner into the WDP Reader's Wand port.
(If you have a MagStripe slot scanner, see page 21 for its installation
instructions.)

6 Your computer, keyboard and reader

should now be cabled as shown here:

Notice how the WDP
Reader and wand
holder are shown
mounted on the side
of the monitor for
convenient access
without clutter.
Laser and CCD scanners can also be mounted on the side of your
monitor, computer or other surface using the laser scanner holder. Slot
scanners can be permanently mounted to a desk, wall or other surface by
using the threaded holes on the bottom. If have a Laser or CCD Scanner
attached to a decoder box, you may want to change the decode light
jumper. See page 37.
