Getting Started - Honeywell MS9535 Quick Start Manual

MS9535 Voyager BT Quick Start Guide
END USER DOCUMENTATION
Introduction
This guide was created to help new users get started quickly and without having to read several hundred pages of
technical manuals that came with your scanner. However -- we don't want to discourage you from reading (a lost
art in America) all about your device. So, do please read the manual cover to cover -- if you can.
What to purchase - or What did I Purchase?
There are two versions of the Metrologic MS9535 Voyager BT. One with inventory memory, and one without.
Yet, both versions allow you to scan and store (record) scans and later allow you to play them back into the
system. The MI9535-538-3 does not include the inventory mode (ignore section 20) and the -5M does include the
inventory mode. Yes, MI9535-538-3 does include Range Gate, which allows the handset to scan up to 2,000
scans.

Getting Started

In order for the Voyager BT to operate properly, plug in the power supply that goes to the cradle. The scanner
must be plugged in for a minimum of 3-hours. So plug it in and take a long walk or have a nice dinner.
The first order of business is to get the base station talking to your computer and handset talking to the base
station (cradle).
There should be an installation disk with some drivers that came with the scanner. Turn on your computer
(laptop) - the host device (as referenced in the manuals). Carefully follow the instructions. The drivers that came
on the installation disk did not work for Windows 7.
Note: On one of my Windows 7 laptop systems, the blue LED light is on, but the device manager says the
driver is not working. However, it all seems to work and Metrologic technical support could not figure this out.
On the Windows 7 desktop, the drivers all loaded correctly. When correctly loaded, the scanner should look like a
USB keyboard.
Low Speed USB
The MI9535-538 leaves the factory with the USB keyboard emulation mode enabled. This is what you want. Do
not scan the barcode on page-12.
1. Connect the USB B type connector (the square connector) to the center jack on the bottom of the charger
cradle.
2. Connect the USB A type connector (the flatter connector) to the USB connector on the host device (this would
be your desktop or laptop). The blue LED on the read of the cradle should turn on (Blue). If you cannot get this to
turn blue -- contact manufacture Honeywell for support (not DaCdb support).
3. Plug in the power supply to the power connector on the bottom of the cradle and plug the power supply into
the AC outlet.
