15 AUDIBLE INDICATORS When the IS6520/MS6520 scnner is in opertion, it provides udible feedbck. These sounds indicte the sttus of the scnner. Eight settings re vilble for the tone of the beep (norml, 6 lternte tones nd no tone). To chnge the tone, refer to the MetroSelect Progrmming Guide MLPN One Beep When the scnner first receives power, the green LED will turn on, then the red LED will flsh nd the scnner will beep once. (The red LED will remin on for the durtion of the beep.) The scnner is redy to scn. When the scnner successfully reds br code, the red LED will flsh nd the scnner beeps once (if progrmmed to do so). If the scnner does not beep once nd the green light does not flsh, then the br code hs not been successfully red. Rzzberry Tone This tone is filure indictor. Refer to Filure Modes" pge 10. Three Beeps - During Opertion During opertion of the scnner, the red LED will flsh while the scnner simultneously beeps three times (while going into progrmming mode). The red LED will continue to flsh until the unit exits progrm mode. Upon exiting progrm mode, the scnner will beep three times nd the red LED will stop flshing. When configured, 3 beeps cn lso indicte communictions timeout during norml scnning mode. When using one-code-progrmming, the scnner will beep three times (the current selected tone), followed by short puse then by high tone nd low tone. This tells the user tht the single configurtion br code hs successfully configured the scnner. Three Beeps - On Power Up This is filure indictor. Refer to Filure Modes on pge 10. 9

16 FAILURE MODES Flshing Green nd One Rzzberry Tone This indictes the scnner hs experienced lser subsystem filure. Return the unit for repir t n uthorized service center. Flshing Green nd Red nd Two Rzzberry Tones This indictes the scnner hs experienced motor filure. Return the unit for repir t n uthorized service center. Continuous Rzzberry Tone with Both LEDs Off If, upon power up, the scnner emits continuous rzzberry tone, then the scnner hs n electronic filure. Return the unit for repir t n uthorized service center. Three Beeps - On Power Up If the scnner beeps 3 times on power up then, the nonvoltile memory tht holds the scnner configurtion hs filed. Return the unit for repir t n uthorized service center. 10

17 VISUAL INDICATORS There is red LED nd green LED on IS6520/MS6520. When the scnner is on, the flshing or sttionry, ctivity of the LEDs indictes the sttus of the current scn nd the scnner. No Red or Green LED The LEDs will not be illuminted if the scnner is not receiving power from the host or trnsformer. Stedy Green When the lser is ctive, the green LED is illuminted. The green LED will remin illuminted until the lser is dectivted. During the power sve mode, the lser will turn on nd turn off. During this period, the green LED remins illuminted. Stedy Green nd Single Red Flsh When the scnner successfully reds br code, the red LED will flsh nd the scnner will beep once. If the red LED does not flsh or the scnner does not beep once, then the br code hs not been successfully red. Stedy Green nd Stedy Red After successful scn, the scnner trnsmits the dt to the host device. Some communiction modes require tht the host inform the scnner when dt is redy to be received. If the host is not redy to ccept the informtion, the scnner's red LED will remin on until the dt cn be trnsmitted. Stedy Green nd Flshing Red This indictes the scnner is in progrm mode. A rzzberry tone indictes tht n invlid br code hs been scnned in this mode. Stedy Red, Green Off This indictes the scnner my be witing for communiction from the host. 11

18 PROGRAMMING MODES The IS6520/MS6520 Cubit hs 3 modes of progrmming. Br Codes: Cubit cn be configured by scnning the br codes locted in the MetroSelect Configurtion Guide (MLPN 2407). Plese refer to this guide for instructions. This mnul cn be downloded for FREE from Metrologic s website ( MetroSet : This user-friendly Windows-bsed configurtion progrm llows you to simply point-nd-click t the desired scnner options. This progrm cn be downloded for FREE from Metrologic website ( or set-up disks cn be ordered by clling ID-METRO. Seril Progrmming: This mode of progrmming is idel for OEM pplictions. This mode gives the end-user the bility to send series of commnds using the seril port of the host system. The commnds re equivlent to the numericl vlues of the br codes locted in the MetroSelect Configurtion Guide (MLPN 2407). How does Seril Progrmming work? 1. Ech commnd sent to the scnner is the ASCII representtion of ech numerl in the configurtion br code. The entire numeric string is frmed with n ASCII [stx] nd n ASCII [etx]. EXAMPLE #1: Commnd for Disbling Codbr Commnd = [stx]100104[etx] String Sent to Scnner = 02h 31h 30h 30h 31h 30h 34h 03h (All vlues re hexdeciml). 2. If the commnd sent to the scnner is vlid, the scnner will respond with n [ck]. 3. If the commnd sent to the scnner in invlid, the scnner will respond with [nk]. NOTE: If this occurs, the end-user must strt over t the very beginning of the configurtion sequence. Simply re-trnmsitting the invlid commnd will not work, you must strt over. 4. During progrmming, the motor nd lser remin ctive. YOU CANNOT SCAN ANY BAR CODES WHILE IN PROGRAM MODE. 5. There is 20 second window between commnds. If 20 second timeout occurs, the scnner will send [nk] nd you must strt over. 12

19 PROGRAMMING MODES (CONTINUED) 6. To enter seril progrm mode, send the following commnd [stx]999999[etx]. 7. To exit seril progrm mode, send the following commnd [stx]999999[etx], the scnner will respond with n [ck] nd long beep. 8. This mode uses the current Bud Rte, Prity, Stop Bits nd Dt Bits settings tht re configured in the scnner. The defult settings of the scnner re 9600, Spce, 2, 7 respectively. If commnd is sent to the scnner to chnge ny of these settings, the chnge will NOT tke effect until fter seril progrm mode is exited. EXAMPLE #2: The following exmple will set the scnner to the fctory defult settings, Disble Scnning of Code 128 br codes, chnge the beeper tone, nd dd G s progrmmble prefix.

The commnds sent to the scnner do not include the smll superscripted 3 tht you see in front of ech br code string in the MetroSelect mnul. THE 3 SHOULD NOT BE SENT, IT IS A CODE TYPE DESIGNATION ONLY! As you will note for commnds requiring dditionl br codes to be scnned (such s prefixes, suffixes, timeouts, etc.), simply send the code bytes in the sme order tht you would normlly scn the br codes. 13

20 PROGRAMMING MODES (CONTINUED) EXAMPLE #3: The following exmple shows the events tht occur when n invlid br code is sent.
