    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.

  • Page 22: Audible Indicators

    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.
  • Page 23: Visual Indicators

    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.
  • Page 24: Failure Modes

    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 non- volatile 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.
  • Page 25: Programming Modes

    String Sent to Scanner = 02h 31h 30h 30h 31h 30h 34h 03h (All values are hexadecimal). If the command sent to the scanner is valid, the scanner will respond with an [ack]. If the command sent to the scanner in invalid, the scanner will respond with a [nak].
  • Page 26 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.
  • Page 27: Abbreviated Ascii Table

    The scanner will beep three times! 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.
  • Page 28: Upgrading The Flash Rom Firmware

    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.

Many RS232 programmable functions available in other Metrologic scanners are also available as keyboard wedge functions.
  • Page 33: Troubleshooting Guide

    ROUBLESHOOTING The following guide is for reference purposes only. Contact a Metrologic representative at 1-800-ID-Metro or 1-800-436-3876 to preserve the limited warranty terms. Symptoms All Interfaces The unit has no LEDs, beep or laser. At power up the unit beeps 2 times and alternately flashes the LEDs.
  • Page 34 Solution Verify that the bar code being scanned falls into the programmed criteria. The scanner defaults to a minimum of 3 character bar code. If the unit is setup to support ACK/NAK, RTS/CTS, XON/XOFF or D/E, verify that the host cable and host are supporting the handshaking properly.
  • Page 35 Caps Lock. Try operating the scanner in Alt mode. Check to make sure that the baud rate and parity of the scanner and the communication port match and that the program is looking for “RS232” data. Check to make sure that the unit is connected to the correct com port on the host device.
  • Page 36: Rs232 Demonstration Program

    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.
