USB Installation on a PC or Mac

If you are attaching a WDP to a computer which doesn't have a traditional
keyboard port, (5 or 6 pin din on PC or ADB on Mac), and only has a USB port
for attaching a keyboard, you must use the Wedge Saver to bridge the WDP to the
USB port.

When you plug the Wedge Saver into the USB port, Windows-98 or the Mac will
sense the new device and proceed to install the necessary software. You don't need
any additional drivers other than what is already on Windows or Mac OS. After the
software installation completes, follow these instructions:

1. Plug the Wedge Saver into a USB port on the host computer, keyboard,

or a USB hub.

2. You can then plug the C20 cable, (a cable with an RJ45 telephone connector

on one side and a 6 pin minidin connector on the other), between the WDP
and the Wedge Saver.

• If you have a WDP with an external decoder box, plug the RJ45 end into

the WDP's "Y" Cable Port.

• If you have an Integrated CCD (WDP-P16) or Integrated Laser Reader

(LZ100-WDP or LZ200-WDP), plug the RJ45 end of the "Y" cable into
the black RJ45 Connector Block on the end of the Integrated Reader's
cable.

3. If you have an Integrated CCD or Integrated Laser Reader, you can begin

scanning immediately.

• If you have a WDP with an external decoder box, you may now plug your

scanner into the Wand Port of the WDP. If you also have a MagStripe
Scanner, plug it into the MagStripe Port, (if you have a dual track or triple
track scanner, you will need to change a jumper -- see page 21). If you are
using a "Y" Cable, you can plug you legacy keyboard into the other end of
the Y Cable, but to get the lights properly working on the legacy keyboard,
plug in the keyboard first and then plug in the USB Wedge Saver.
