    1 second and then the scanner can then scan the same symbol on the next pass. The MS951 Hand-Held Laser Scanner with Built-in PC Keyboard Wedge Interface is designed to be used for keyboard emulation only. However, many RS-232 programmable functions that are available in other Metrologic scanners are also available as keyboard wedge functions.

  • Page 8: Quick Start

    Quick Start 1.) Plug in the scanner. When the MS951 is ready to scan, the red LED will turn on, followed by the green LED, and then the scanner will emit one beep. 2.) The scanner is shipped from the factory pro- grammed with default settings.

  • Page 9: Operational Test

    Listen for a single beep (red LED on) which indicates the scanner is ready for use. RS-232, Light Pen, OCIA and 46xx scanners: Plug the scanner’s coil cable into the MCA (Metrologic Connector Adaptor). Check the AC input requirements of the power supply to make sure the voltage matches the AC outlet.

  • Page 10: Scanner Installation: Powered By External Power Supply

    1. Turn off the host system. 2. If using a communication cable, connect the cable to the correct port on the host device and the MCA (Metrologic Connector Adaptor). If the host device is an IBM compatible PC with a male 9-pin serial port, connect the MCA to the port.

  • Page 11: Scanner Installation: Powered By Host Device

    If the host system supplies +5VDC power to the scanner, reposition the internal jumper within the MCA (Metrologic Connector Adaptor) before connecting the scanner to the host device. In addition, plug the 4 position ground jumper into the power supply connector located on the side of the MCA.

    Configuration of the MS951/MS961- 48 Scanner The Keyboard Laser Scanner version of the MS951 is terminated with a 6-pin male mini DIN. The version 48 plugs directly into the external keyboard port of a register or notebook computer. Application Test: The MS951/MS961-48 is compatible with some but not all notebook computers equipped with an external keyboard port.

    Port 9? (? = A, B, C, or E). A Port 9 type connector is present on all versions of the 46XX families of terminals. That is one reason it is the normal point of connection for Metrologic scanners. Another reason is that there is enough 12 volt power available to operate many Metrologic scanners. If the terminal configuration requires the use of a different physical port, for connecting bar code scanners, contact Metrologic to get particular adaptor cable information.

  • Page 16: Configuring The Scanner With 46Xx Interface

    For some slow application software, there are special features in the MS951 that may change the scanner operating characteristics to prevent data loss while not significantly slowing the scanner performance.

    Audible Indicators When the MS951 scanner is in operation, it provides audible indications. These sounds indicate the status of the scan and scanner. When the scanner first receives power, the red LED One Beep will blink, followed by the green LED, and then the scanner will emit one beep.

  • Page 22: Visual Indicators

    Visual Indicators There is a red and green LED at the top of the scanner. These LEDs indicate the status of the scan and scanner. Illumination of the LEDs will not occur if No Red or Green the scanner is not receiving power from the PC and if the scanner is receiving power but has remained dormant for a specified time thus turning the laser and motor off.

  • Page 26: Labels

    Label Locations The MS951 scanner is either a CDRH Class II laser system or an IEC Class 1 Laser System. The unit will have a CDRH Class II caution label or an LASERKLASSE 1 label affixed below the model number. The model number label is on the bottom of the scanner’s head.

  • Page 27: Ir Sensor Activation

    IR Sensor Activation The scanning process is initiated by an infrared (IR) device that is below the output window. The signal extends approximately eight (8) inches beyond the output window in long range mode and in short rang mode, it extends approximately three (3) inches (Refer to Figure 6).

  • Page 28: Scan Field

    Scan Field The depth of field for the scanner is from the face of the output window to five (5) inches (Refer to Figure 7). If the scanner is in the stand, present the bar code to the scanner. When holding the scanner, position the output window within five inches of the bar code.
