All Manuals Search And Download.   INDICATORS   Audible   When the Voyager is in operation, it provides audible feedback. These sounds   indicate the status of the scanner. Eight settings are available for the tone of the   beep (normal, 6 alternate tones and no tone). To change the beeper tone, refer   to the MetroSelect Single-Line Configuration Guide or MetroSet2’s help files.   One Beep   When the scanner first receives power, the green* LED will turn on, the red*   LED will flash, and the scanner will beep once. The scanner is ready to scan.   When the scanner successfully reads a bar code, the red LED will flash and   the scanner will beep once.   Three Beeps   During Operation   When entering the configuration mode, the red* LED will flash while the   scanner simultaneously beeps three times.   When exiting the configuration mode, the scanner will beep three times and   the red LED will stop blinking.   Three beeps can also indicate a communication timeout during normal   scanning mode if the scanner is configured to give this indication.   During Start-up   This is a failure indicator. Refer to “Failure Modes” on page 19.   Three Beeps   When using the single-code-configuration method, the scanner will sound a   3-combination tone (a single beep then a short pause followed by, a high tone,   and a low tone). This beep sequence signals that the single configuration bar   code has successfully configured the scanner.   Razzberry Tone   On startup, this tone indicates a failure mode. Refer to “Failure Modes" on   page 19.   When in configuration mode, a short razzberry tone will sound if an invalid bar   code is scanned.   * In some custom units the standard green LED has been replaced with a blue LED and   the red LED has been replaced with a white LED.   17   Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.   INDICATORS   Visual   Figure 29. LED Configuration   The MS9540 has three LED indicators located on the head of the scanner.   The MS9520 has two LED indicators located on the head of the scanner.   When the scanner is in operation, the flashing, or stationary activity of the LEDs   indicates the status of the scanner and the current scan.   All LEDs are Off   The LEDs will not be illuminated if the scanner is not receiving power from the   host or transformer.   The scanner is in stand-by mode, and CodeGate is enabled. Present a bar   code to the scanner and the green LED will turn on when the laser turns on.   Steady Yellow (MS9540’s Only)   The CodeGate button is not active. If a bar code is in the scan field, the laser   will turn on. The bar code will be decoded and transmitted to the host   automatically.   Steady Green   When the laser is active, the green LED is illuminated. The green* LED will   remain illuminated until the laser is deactivated (default mode only).   Steady Green and Single Red Flash   When the scanner successfully reads a bar code, the red* LED will flash and   the scanner will beep once. If the red LED does not flash or the scanner does   not beep once, then the bar code has not been successfully read (default mode   only).   After a successful scan, the scanner transmits the data to the host   device. Some communication modes require that the host inform the   scanner when data is ready to be received. If the host is not ready to   accept the information, the scanner’s red LED will remain on until the   data can be transmitted.   * In some custom units the standard green LED has been replaced with a blue LED and   the red LED has been replaced with a white LED.   18   Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.   INDICATORS   Failure Modes   Razzberry Tone – On Start-Up   This indicates the scanner has experienced a flipper/motor failure.   Return the unit for repair to an authorized service center.   Continuous Razzberry Tone with all LEDs Off   If, upon power, the scanner emits a continuous razzberry tone, then the   scanner has an experienced an electronic failure. Return the unit for repair to   an authorized service center.   Three Beeps – on power up   If the scanner beeps three times on power up then the non-volatile memory   (NovRAM) that holds the scanner configuration has failed. If the scanner does   not respond after reconfiguring, return the scanner for repair to an authorized   service center.   19   Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.   CONFIGURATION MODES   The MS9500 Voyager has three modes of configuration.   • • • Bar Codes   Voyager or VoyagerCG can be configured by scanning the bar codes   located in the MetroSelect® Single-Line Configuration Guide   (MLPN 00-02544). This manual can be downloaded for FREE at   MetroSet®2   This user-friendly Windows-based configuration software allows you to   simply ‘point-and-click’ at the desired scanner options. This software can be   ordered by calling 1-800-ID-METRO.   Serial Configuration   This mode of configuration is ideal for OEM applications. This mode gives   the end-user the ability to send a series of commands using the serial port of   the host system. The commands are equivalent to the numerical values of   the bar codes located in the MetroSelect Single-Line Configuration Guide   (MLPN 00-02544).   How does Serial Configuration work?   1. Each command sent to the scanner is the ASCII representation of each   numeral in the configuration bar code. The entire numeric string is framed   with an ASCII [stx] and an ASCII [etx].   EXAMPLE #1:   Command for Disabling Codabar   Command = [stx]100104[etx]   String Sent to Scanner = 02h 31h 30h 30h 31h 30h 34h 03h   (All values are hexadecimal).   2. If the command sent to the scanner is valid, the scanner will respond with an   [ack].   3. If the command sent to the scanner in invalid, the scanner will respond with   a [nak].   NOTE: If this occurs, the end-user must start over at the very beginning of   the configuration sequence. Re-transmitting the invalid command   will not work, the user must start over.   20   Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.   CONFIGURATION MODES   4. During configuration, the motor and laser turn off. YOU CANNOT SCAN A   BAR CODE WHILE IN SERIAL CONFIGURATION MODE.   5. There is a 20 second window between commands. If a 20 second timeout   occurs, the scanner will send a [nak] and you must start over.   6. To enter serial configuration mode, send the following command   [stx]999999[etx].   7.

The upgrade process requires a new firmware file supplied to the   customer by a customer service representativeꢀ and Metrologic's MetroSet2   softwareꢀꢀ. A personal computer running Windows 95 or greater with an   available RS232 serial or USB port is required to complete the upgrade.   Do not use the standard cable supplied with Keyboard Wedge or    RS485 interface kits for firmware upgrades. Use either cable   #54-54014x or #53-53014x. If using USB or RS232 for the upgrade   process, the standard USB or RS232 cable provided with the scanner   can be used.   To upgrade the firmware in the MS9520/MS9540:   1. Plug the scanner into a serial communication port on the host system.   2. Start the MetroSet2 software.   3. Click on the plus sign (+) next to POS Scanners to expand the supported   scanner list.   4. Choose the Voyager/9520 N/R or Voyager/9540 N/R from the list.   5. Click on the Configure Scanner button.   6. Choose Flash Utility from the options list located on the left side of the   screen.   7. Click on the Open File button in the Flash Utility window.   8. Locate and open the flash upgrade file supplied by Metrologic.   9. Select the COM port that the scanner is connected to on the host system.   10. Verify the settings listed in the Flash Utility window.   11. Click on the Flash Scanner button to begin the flash upgrade.   12.

Ni intentar   mirar al haz del láser incluso cuando este no esté operativo. Tampoco deberá abrir el   escáner para examinar el aparato. El hacerlo puede conllevar una exposición peligrosa a la   luz de láser. El uso de instrumentos ópticos con el equipo láser puede incrementar el   riesgo para la vista.   Attention   L'emploi de commandes, réglages ou procédés autres que ceux décrits ici peut entraîner de   graves irradiations. Le client ne doit en aucun cas essayer d'entretenir lui-même le scanner   ou le laser. Ne regardez jamais directement le rayon laser, même si vous croyez que le   scanner est inactif. N'ouvrez jamais le scanner pour regarder dans l'appareil. Ce faisant,   vous vous exposez à une rayonnement laser qú êst hazardous. L'emploi d'appareils   optiques avec cet équipement laser augmente le risque d'endommagement de la vision.   Achtung   Die Verwendung anderer als der hier beschriebenen Steuerungen, Einstellungen oder   Verfahren kann eine gefährliche Laserstrahlung hervorrufen.

Öffnen Sie niemals   den Scanner, um in das Gerät hineinzusehen. Wenn Sie dies tun, können Sie sich einer   gefährlichen Laserstrahlung aussetzen. Der Einsatz optischer Geräte mit dieser   Laserausrüstung erhöht das Risiko einer Sehschädigung.   Attenzione   L’utilizzo di sistemi di controllo, di regolazioni o di procedimenti diversi da quelli descritti nel   presente Manuale può provocare delle esposizioni a raggi laser rischiose. Il cliente non   deve assolutamente tentare di riparare egli stesso lo scanner laser. Non guardate mai il   raggio laser, anche se credete che lo scanner non sia attivo. Non aprite mai lo scanner per   guardare dentro l’apparecchio. Facendolo potete esporVi ad una esposizione laser   rischiosa. L’uso di apparecchi ottici, equipaggiati con raggi laser, aumenta il rischio di   danni alla vista.   43   Download from Www.Somanuals.com.
