SCANNER OPERATION
Audible Indicators
When the 7120 is in operation, it provides audible feedback to indicate the status
of the scanner. Eight settings are available for the tone of the beep (normal, six
alternate tones and no tone). For instructions on how to change the tone of the
beeper, refer to the MetroSelect Configuration Guide (00-02407).

One Beep
When the scanner first receives power the blue and white LED will toggle on
and off. The scanner will beep once, then the LEDs will stop toggling and the
blue LED will remain on to indicate the scanner is ready to scan.
When the scanner successfully reads a bar code, the white LED will flash and
the scanner will emit a beep*. If the scanner does not beep once and the white
light does not flash, then the bar code has not been successfully read.

Razzberry Tone
This is a failure indicator. Refer to Failure Mode Indicators on page 14.
When in configuration mode, a razzberry tone indicates that an invalid bar code
has been scanned.

Three Beeps - During Operation
When entering configuration mode† the scanner will beep three times and the
white and blue LED will start to toggle on and off. The blue LED and the white
LED will toggle on and off until the scanner exits the configuration mode.
Upon exiting configuration mode†, the white LED will flash three times and the
scanner will beep three times. The blue LED will then stay on indicating the
scanner is ready to scan.
When using one-code-configuring, the scanner will emit a unique beep three
times after scanning. This indicates that the single configuration bar code has
successfully configured the scanner.
Three beeps* can also indicate a communications timeout during normal
scanning mode.

Three Beeps - On Power Up
This is a failure indicator. Refer to Failure Mode Indicators on page 14.
* This feature is configuration dependent. Refer to the MetroSelect Configuration Guide
to enable this feature.
†
Refer to the Multi-Code Configuration Method in the MetroSelect Configuration Guide.

SCANNER OPERATION
Visual Indicators
The 7120 is equipped with a blue and a white LED that indicates the scanner’s
state and the status of the current scan when the unit is in operation.

Figure 14. LED Location
No LEDs
The LEDs will not be illuminated if the scanner is not receiving power from the
host or transformer.
Steady Blue
When the laser is active, the blue LED is illuminated. The blue LED will remain
on until the laser is deactivated.
During the power save mode, the laser will turn on and off. During this period,
the blue LED will remain on.
Steady Blue and Single White Flash
When the scanner successfully reads a bar code, the white LED will flash and
the scanner will beep once. If the white LED does not flash or the scanner
does not beep once, then the bar code has not been successfully read.
Steady White and Blue
After a successful scan, the scanner transmits the data to the host device.
Some communication modes require that the host inform the scanner when
data is ready to be received. If the host is not ready to accept the information,
the scanner’s white LED will remain on until the data can be transmitted.
Alternating (Toggling) Blue and White
This indicates the scanner is in configuration mode. A razzberry tone indicates
that an invalid bar code has been scanned in this mode.

SCANNER OPERATION
Failure Mode Indicators
Flashing Blue with One Razzberry Tone
This indicates that the scanner has experienced a laser subsystem failure.
Return the unit to an authorized service center for repair.

Synchronized Flashing of Blue and White with Two Razzberry Tones
This indicates that the scanner has experienced a motor failure. Return the unit
to an authorized service center for repair.

Three Beeps - On Power Up
If the scanner beeps three times on power up, then the nonvolatile memory
that holds the scanner configuration may have failed. First, check the
scanner’s settings. Then, try to re-configure the scanner. If the problem
persists return the unit to an authorized service center for repair.

UPGRADING THE FIRMWARE
The Orbit 7120 is part of Honeywell’s line of scanners with flash upgradeable
firmware. The upgrade process requires, a new firmware file supplied to the
customer by a customer service representative and Honeywell’s MetroSet2
software. A personal computer running Windows 95 or greater with an
available RS232 serial or USB port is required to complete the upgrade.
PowerLink Cable #54-54014 is required when using RS232 for the
upgrade process. This cable can be ordered by contacting a customer
service representative. Do not use the standard cable supplied with
keyboard wedge or RS485 scanner interface kits. If using USB for the
upgrade process, the standard USB cable provided with the scanner
can be used.
To upgrade the firmware in the Orbit 7120:
1.

Plug the scanner into a serial communication port on the host system.

Start the MetroSet2 software.

Click on the plus sign (+) next to POS Scanners to expand the supported
scanner list.
