NSTALLATION OF A 11. Scan the following bar code to configure the auxiliary port on the MS7320 to accept a Metrologic scanner as the secondary scanner. The following bar codes do not apply when using an MS6720 as a secondary scanner. Contact a Metrologic representative for additional information on the MS6720.

CANNER ABELS The MS7320 has 2 labels on the back of the unit. These labels contain the model number, date of manufacture, serial number, and caution information. An additional caution label is located under the window faceplate and a label noting the jack interfaces is located under the connector cover.
UDIBLE NDICATORS When the MS7320 scanner 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, use the Multi-Function Button or refer to the MetroSelect Configuration Guide.
ISUAL NDICATORS There is a red LED and green LED on the front of the MS7320. When the scanner is on, the flashing or constant illumination of the LEDs indicates the status of the current scan and the scanner. No Red or Green LED The LEDs will not be illuminated if the scanner is not receiving power from the host or transformer.
Three Beeps - on power up If the scanner beeps 3 times on power up then, the nonvolatile memory that holds the scanner configuration has failed. Return the unit for repair at an authorized service center.
OWER ODES AND THE The MS7320 has five configurable power save modes. Refer to the MetroSelect Configuration Guide for additional information on Power Save Modes. Blink Power Save Mode (Default): “Blinks” the laser OFF & ON after a configured period of non-use.

SW1 and SW2 are the switch banks inside the Checkpoint Device that set the deactivation range. Metrologic recommends end users program the MS7320 to the Fixed for Low Density Codes - Depth of Field*, so that the unit does not scan out beyond the deactivation range.
Make sure the cable is plugged into the scanner. Some host systems cannot supply enough current to power MS7320 series scanner. Use the power supply included with the scanner. Contact a Metrologic Representative, if the unit will not hold the configuration.
