INTRODUCTION Scanner Components Figure 1. Scanner Components Item No.
INTRODUCTION Cable Installation Important: If the cable is not fully attached, the unit may power intermittently. Figure 2. Cable Installation 1. 2. 3. Insert the 15-pin D-type connector end of the cable into the socket on the MS4980. Rotate the two screws clockwise to tighten. Gently pull on the cable strain relief to insure the cable is installed. Cable Removal Before removing the cable from the scanner, turn off power on the host system and disconnect the power supply, if applicable. Figure 3.
INTRODUCTION Labels Every scanner has a label located on the underside of the unit. The label contains important information such as the unit’s date of manufacture, serial number, CE and caution information. Figure 4 provides an example of the label. Figure 4 . Label Example Caution: To maintain compliance with applicable standards, all circuits connected to the scanner must meet the requirements for SELV (Safety Extra Low Voltage) according to EN/IEC 60950-1. To maintain compliance with standard CSA-C22.
INSTALLATION RS232 1. Turn off the host device. 2. Plug the 15-pin socket end of the cable into the 15-pin D-Type connector on the MS4980 (see page 4). 3. Connect the 9-pin D-type connector of the communication cable to the proper COM port of the host device. 4. Plug the power supply into the power jack on the PowerLink cable. Check the AC input requirements of the power supply to verify the voltage matches the AC outlet. The outlet must be located near the equipment and be easily accessible.
INSTALLATION Keyboard Wedge 1. Turn off the host device. 2. Plug the 15-pin socket end of the cable into the 15-pin D-Type connector on the MS4980 (see page 4). 3. Disconnect the keyboard from the host device. 4. Connect the “Y” ends of the communication cable to the keyboard and keyboard port on the host device. If necessary, use the male/female adapter cable supplied with the scanner for proper connections. 5. Plug the power supply into the power jack on the PowerLink cable.
INSTALLATION USB (Powered by the Host Device) 1. Turn off the host device. 2. Plug the 15-pin socket end of the USB cable into the 15-pin D-Type connector on the MS4980 (see page 4). 3. Plug the USB end of the cable into the host’s USB port. 4. Turn on the host device. 5. The MS4980 will start to initialize. The white and blue LED will alternately fade on and off for approximately three seconds.
INSTALLATION USB (Powered by External Power Supply) 1. Turn off the host device. 2. Plug the 15-pin socket end of the cable into the 15-pin D-Type connector on the MS4980 (see page 4). 3. Plug the USB end of the cable into the host’s USB port. 4. Plug the power supply into the power jack on the PowerLink cable. Check the AC input requirements of the power supply to verify the voltage matches the AC outlet. The outlet must be located near the equipment and be easily accessible. 5.
MOUNTING SPECIFICATIONS The MS4980 has three M3 x 0.5 mm threaded inserts on the bottom of the scanner for mounting with screws. Figure 10.
MODES OF OPERATION The MS4980 supports two standard modes of operation for scanning bar codes, automatic activation and manual activation scanning. Scanning while in the automatic activation mode can occur in either one of two configurable options, pass-through or presentation. Both the pass-through and the presentation With the default configuration, the scanner options are enabled by default.
MODES OF OPERATION Manual Activation • Decodes ALL 1D, PDF and 2D matrix codes • Scanning Method: 1. Press the button one time to activate linear targeting. 2. Align the linear targeting line over the desired bar code. When scanning 1D programming bar codes, the bar code must be presented to the scanner in the correct orientation, see Figure 11. Figure 11. 1D Programming Bar Code Orientation PDF and 2D matrix codes may be presented in any orientation. 3.
INDICATORS Audible When the MS4980 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, six alternate tones and no tone). To change the tone, refer to the MetroSelect Single-Line Configuration Guide, MLPN 00-02544 or MetroSet2’s help files. One Beep When the scanner successfully reads a bar code the unit will beep once and the white LED will flash once indicating data has been transmitted successfully.
INDICATORS Visual The scanner has blue and white LED indicators on either side of the button on the top of the unit. When the scanner is on, the intensity of the LED and the flashing or stationary activity of the LEDs, indicates the status of the current scan and the diagnostic scanner. Figure 12. No LEDs are Illuminated The LEDs will not be illuminated if the scanner is not receiving power from the host or transformer. Steady Low Intensity Blue The scanner is in stand-by mode.
INDICATORS Failure Modes Long Razzberry Tone – During Power Up Failed to initialize or configure the scanner. If the scanner does not respond after reconfiguration, return the scanner for repair. Short Razzberry Tone – During Scanning An Invalid bar code has been scanned when in configuration mode.

TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE The following guide is for reference purposes only. Contact a customer service representative to preserve the limited warranty terms, see page 39. All Interfaces Symptoms Possible Causes Solution No power is being supplied to the scanner. Check transformer, outlet and power strip. Make sure the cable is plugged into the scanner. No power is being supplied to the scanner from the host. Some host systems cannot supply enough current to power the MS4980.
TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE Symptoms Possible Causes Solution The unit powers The beeper is up, but does not disabled and no tone beep when bar is selected. code is scanned. Enable the beeper and select a tone. The unit powers up, but does not scan and/or beep. The bar code symbology trying to be scanned is not enabled. UPC/EAN, Code 39, interleaved 2 of 5, Code 93, Code 128, Codabar and PDF are enabled by default. Verify that the type of bar code being read has been selected.
TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE Symptoms The unit beeps at some bar codes and NOT for others of the same bar code symbology. The unit scans the bar code but there is no data. Possible Causes Solution The bar code may have been printed incorrectly. Check if it is a check digit/character/or border problem. The scanner is not configured correctly for this type of bar code. Check if check digits are set properly. The minimum symbol length setting does not work with the bar code.
TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE Symptoms The unit scans but the data is not correct. Possible Causes The scanner and host may not be configured for the same interface parameters. Solution Check that the scanner and the host are configured for the same interface parameters. The following item is only relevant for an RS232 interface. The unit powers up OK and scans OK but does not communicate properly with the host. The com port at the host is not working or not configured properly.
