The Voyager

®

MS9500 Series single-line hand-held scanners include both the

MS9520 and MS9540.

The VoyagerCG

®

MS9540 features Metrologic’s patented CodeGate

® technology. CodeGate is an intuitive scanning system that is ideal for all scanning applications, including menu-scanning, point-of-sale, document processing, and inventory control.

CodeGate works hand-in-hand with Metrologic’s patented automatic-triggering scheme. Simply present a bar code to the scanner; the high-visibility

650-nanometer laser is automatically activated allowing the user to easily select the bar code to be scanned. Press the CodeGate button and the data is transmitted to the host system.

Equipped with both ‘in-stand’ and ‘out-of-stand’ operation, Voyager can be used as both a hand-held and fixed projection scanner. Voyager automatically senses when it is placed in the stand and de-activates the CodeGate button.

If the advantage of CodeGate technology is unnecessary in your application, then the MS9520 is the Voyager of choice. The MS9520 is packed with all of the same features as the MS9540, with the exception of CodeGate.

Metrologic has included many standard features such as: user programmable

Flash ROM, PowerLink user-replaceable cables, MetroSet

®

2 and MetroSelect

® configuration, EMI rating of Class B, data editing (parsing) capability using

Bits ‘n’ Pieces

®

, and a 5-year limited warranty.

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 tone, refer to the

MetroSelect

®

Single-Line Programming Guide (

MLPN

00-02544) or MetroSet

®

2’s help files.

One Beep

When the scanner first receives power, the green LED will turn on, then the red LED will flash and the scanner will beep once. (The red LED will remain on for the duration of the beep.) The scanner is ready to scan.

When the scanner successfully reads a bar code, the red

LED will flash and the scanner beeps once (if programmed to do so). If the scanner does not beep once and the green light does not flash, then the bar code has not been successfully read.

Razzberry Tone

This tone is a failure indicator. Refer to “Failure

Modes" page 17.

Two Beeps – On Power Up

When there is a Flash ROM upgrade needed, the scanner will beep twice followed by alternating flashing of the green and red LEDs.

Three Beeps - During Operation

When entering configuration mode, the red LED will flash while the scanner simultaneously beeps three times. The red and green LEDs will continue to flash while in this mode. Upon exiting configuration mode, the scanner will beep three times, and the LEDs will stop flashing.

When configured, 3 beeps can also indicate a communications timeout during normal scanning mode.

When using one-code-programming, the scanner will beep three times (the current selected tone), followed by a short pause then by a high tone and a low tone. This tells the user that the single configuration bar code has successfully configured the scanner.

Three Beeps - On Power Up

This is a failure indicator. Refer to “Failure Modes” on page 17.

The MS9540 has three LED indicators (green, red and yellow) located on the head of the scanner. The MS9520 has two LED indicators (green and red) located on the head of the scanner. When the scanner is on, the flashing or stationary activity of the LEDs indicates the status of the current scan and the scanner.

Green, Red & Yellow (MS9540’s Only) LEDs are off

The LEDs will not be illuminated if the scanner is not receiving power from the host or transformer.

The scanner is 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)

Steady Green and Steady Red

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.

Alternating Flashing of Green and Red

This indicates the scanner is program mode. A razzberry tone indicates that an invalid bar code has been scanned while in this mode.

The scanner needs to have a Flash ROM upgrade if the alternating flashing of the red and green LEDs occurs during startup and is accompanied by three beeps.

Steady Red, Green off

This indicates the scanner may be waiting for communication from the host.

This indicates the scanner has experienced a laser subsystem failure. Return the unit for repair to an authorized service center.

Flashing Red and Green with Two Razzberry Tones

This indicates the scanner has experienced a scanning mechanism 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 3 times on power up then the nonvolatile memory (NovRAM) that holds the scanner configuration has failed. If the scanner does not respond after reprogramming, return the scanner for repair to an authorized service center.

The MS9500 Voyager has 3 modes of programming.

Bar Codes

Voyager or Voyager CG can be configured by scanning the bar codes located in the MetroSelect

00-

02544). Please refer to this guide for instructions. This manual can be downloaded for FREE from Metrologic’s website (www.metrologic.com).

This user-friendly Windows-based configuration program allows you to simply ‘point-and-click’ at the desired scanner options. This program can be downloaded for FREE from Metrologic’ website (www.metrologic.com), or set-up disks can be ordered by calling 1-800-ID-METRO.

¾

Serial Programming

This mode of programming 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 Programming Guide

(

MLPN

00-02544).

How does Serial Programming 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. Simply re-transmitting the invalid command will not work, you must start over.

)

4. During programming, the motor and laser turn off. YOU CANNOT SCAN A

BAR CODE WHILE IN SERIAL PROGRAM 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 program mode, send the following command

[stx]999999[etx].

7. To exit serial program mode, send the following command [stx]999999[etx], the scanner will respond with an [ack] followed by 3 beeps.

8. This mode uses the current Baud Rate, Parity, Stop Bits and Data Bits settings that are configured in the scanner. The default settings of the scanner are 9600, Space, 2, 7 respectively. If a command is sent to the scanner to change any of these settings, the change will NOT take effect until after serial program mode is exited.

EXAMPLE #2:

The following example will set the scanner to the factory default settings,

Disable Scanning of Code 128 bar codes, change the beeper tone, and add a “G” as a programmable prefix.

The commands sent to the scanner do not include the small superscripted

‘3’ that you see in front of each bar code string in the MetroSelect manual.

THE ‘3’ SHOULD NOT BE SENT, IT IS A CODE TYPE DESIGNATION

ONLY!

As you will note for commands requiring additional bar codes to be scanned

(such as prefixes, suffixes, timeouts, etc.), simply send the code bytes in the same order that you would normally scan the bar codes.

This example illustrates two important points.

First, if an invalid command is sent from the host, the scanner responds with a [nak] and the end-user must start over from the beginning.

Second, if a command is sent to change the Baud Rate, the new baud rate does not take effect until after the end-user exits program mode.

IRMWARE

The Meteor program is a functional component of Metrologic’s new line of Flashbased scanners. This program allows the user of a Metrologic scanner to quickly upgrade to a new or custom version of software. It requires the use of a personal computer running under Windows 95 or greater and the use of a communication port. The user merely connects the scanner to a communications port of the PC, launches the Meteor program, and blasts off to new software upgrades.

Each MS9500, regardless of the version number or communication protocol, can be upgraded. In other words, all RS232 (-41), keyboard wedge (-47), light pen

(-41), laser emulation (-00), OCIA (-9) and IBM 468X/469X (-11) units can be upgraded. To upgrade all units, a power supply and PowerLink cable

(

MLPN

54-54012) are required.

The upgrades and custom software versions will be supplied by Metrologic in files called Motorola S-record files. These files contain all the information needed to upgrade the scanner. Simply add this file to the working directory or retrieve from its current location.

The program guides the user with its simplistic one click approach. The user must first select the file; once selected and verified, the file is ready to be used in the upgrade. Press the button to upgrade the scanner, the unit will go into a

“flash mode” – both the green and red LEDs will be on. The user can follow the progress of the upgrade by watching the screen for details. When the upgrade is complete, the scanner will respond with its normal one beep on power up. If two beeps occur, the scanner did not upgrade properly. (Contact Metrologic for additional details).

Smudges and dirt can interfere with the proper scanning of a bar code.

Therefore, the output window will need occasional cleaning.

1. Spray glass cleaner onto lint free, non-abrasive cleaning cloth.

2. Gently wipe the scanner window.

ROGRAM

If an RS-232 scanner is not communicating with your IBM compatible PC, key in the following BASIC program to test that the communication port and scanner are working.

This program is for demonstration purposes only. It is only intended to prove that cabling is correct, the com port is working, and the scanner is working. If the bar code data displays on the screen while using this program, it only demonstrates that the hardware interface and scanner are working. At this point, investigate whether the application software and the scanner configuration match.

If the application does not support RS-232 scanners, a software wedge program that will take RS-232 data and place it into a keyboard buffer may be needed.

This program tells the PC to ignore RTS-CTS, Data Set Ready (DSR) and Data

Carrier Detect (DCD) signals. If the demonstration program works and yours still does not, jumper RTS to CTS and Data Terminal Reading (DTR) to DCD and

DSR on the back of your PC.

OTICES

Notice

This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instruction, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:

Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna

Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver

Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected

Consult the dealer or an experienced radio TV technician for help

Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.

Notice

This Class B digital apparatus complies with Canadian ICES-003.

Remarque

Cet appareil numerique de la class B est conforme à la norme NMB-003 du Canada.

Caution

Use of controls or adjustments or performance of procedures other than those specified herein may result in hazardous laser light exposure. Under no circumstances should the customer attempt to service the laser scanner. Never attempt to look at the laser beam, even if the scanner appears to be nonfunctional.

Never open the scanner in an attempt to look into the device. Doing so could result in hazardous laser light exposure. The use of optical instruments with the laser equipment will increase eye hazard.

Atención

La modificación de los procedimientos, o la utilización de controles o ajustes distintos de los especificados aquí, pueden provocar una luz de láser peligrosa. Bajo ninguna circunstancia el usuario deberá realizar el mantenimiento del láser del escáner. 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. Der Kunde sollte unter keinen Umständen versuchen, den

Laser-Scanner selbst zu warten. Sehen Sie niemals in den Laserstrahl, selbst wenn Sie glauben, daß der Scanner nicht aktiv ist. 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.
