information such as the model number, date of manufacture, serial number, and
caution information. An additional caution label is located under the top plate.
The following are examples of these labels.
Figure 23: Label Locations

AUDIBLE INDICATORS
When the MS7600 scanner 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) plus three volume
settings. To change the tone or volume, refer to the Changing the Beeper Tone
& Volume section of this manual.
One Beep
When the scanner first receives power, the amber LED will turn on,
the red LED will flash and the scanner will beep once. (The red
LED will remain on for the duration of the beep.) The scanner is
now ready to scan.
When the scanner successfully reads a bar code, the red LED will
flash and the scanner beeps once (if programmed to do so). If the
scanner does not beep once and the red light does not flash, then
the bar code has not been successfully read.

Razzberry Tone
This is a failure indicator. Refer to failure modes page 24.

Three Beeps - during operation
When placing the scanner in program mode, the red LED will flash
while the scanner simultaneously beeps three times. The red and
amber LEDs will continue to flash until the unit exits program mode.
Upon exiting program mode, the scanner will beep three times and
the red LED will stop flashing.
When configured, 3 beeps can also indicate a communications
timeout during normal scanning mode.
When using one-code-programming, the scanner will beep three
times (the current selected tone), followed by a short pause, a high
tone and a low tone. This tells the user that the single configuration
bar code has successfully configured the scanner.

Three Beeps - on power up
This is a failure indicator. Refer to failure modes page 24.
22

VISUAL INDICATORS
There is a red LED and amber LED on
the front of the MS7600. When the scanner is
on, the flashing or constant illumination of the
LEDs indicates the status of the current scan
and the scanner.

Figure 24: LEDs

No Red or Amber LED
The LEDs will not be illuminated if the scanner is
not receiving power from the host or transformer.
Steady Amber
When the laser is active, the amber LED is
illuminated. The amber LED will remain
illuminated until the laser is deactivated.
Steady Amber and Single Red Flash
When the scanner successfully reads a bar code,
the red LED will flash and the scanner will beep
once. If the red LED does not flash or the
scanner does not beep once, then the bar code
has not been successfully read.
Steady Amber and Steady Red
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 red LED will remain on
until the data can be transmitted.
Flashing Amber then Flashing Red
This indicates the scanner is in program mode. A
razzberry tone indicates that an invalid bar code
has been scanned in this mode.
or
If the unit is in sleep mode, each LED will flash
once every 15 seconds.
Steady Red, Amber off
This indicates the scanner may be waiting for
communication from the host.

FAILURE MODES

Figure 25: LEDs

Flashing Amber and One Razzberry Tone
This indicates the scanner has experienced a
laser subsystem failure. Return the unit for repair
at an authorized service center.

Flashing Red and Amber and
Two Razzberry Tones
This indicates the scanner has experienced a
motor failure. Return the unit for repair at an
authorized service center.

Continuous Razzberry Tone with
both LEDs off
If, upon power up, the scanner emits a
continuous razzberry tone, then the scanner has
an electronic failure. Return the unit for repair at
an authorized service center.

Three Beeps - on power up
If the scanner beeps 3 times on power up then,
the nonvolatile memory that holds the scanner
configuration has failed. Return the unit for repair
at an authorized service center.

CHANGING THE BEEPER TONE & VOLUME
Changing the Beeper Tone
Beeper tones may be programmed directly or incrementally using the following
bar code. The new tone will be heard followed by a short pause. Two more new
tones will be heard signifying the new setting has been stored in memory. The
silent (no beep) tone is also selectable.

POWER SAVE MODES AND IR DETECTION
The MS7600 has five programmable power save modes. Refer to the
MetroSelect Programming Guide for additional information on Power Save
Modes.
1.

Blink Power Save Mode:
Blinks the laser OFF & ON after a programmed period of non-use.
When the scanner recognizes a bar code it will exit the Blink mode.

2.

Laser Off Power Save Mode:
Turns the laser OFF after a programmed period of non-use. The motor
continues to spin allowing for a faster “wake” up time.
Any movement detected by the IR will “wake” the scanner from the Laser Off
power save mode (see figure 27).

3.

Laser & Motor Off Power Save Mode:
Turns the laser and motor OFF after a programmed period of non-use.
Any movement detected by the IR will “wake” the scanner from the power
save mode (see figure 27). This mode’s “wake” time is slightly longer due to
the motor’s need to restart.

4.

Dual Action Power Save Mode #1:
“Blinks” the laser OFF & ON after a programmed period of non-use turns the
laser and motor OFF at thirty-minute intervals.
Example:
If the power save timeout
is set to 15 minutes.

Last

Scanning a particular
symbology that is not
enabled.

UPC/EAN, Code 39, interleaved
2 of 5, Code 93, Code 128 and
Codabar are enabled by default.
Verify that the type of bar code
being read has been selected.

The scanner has been
programmed for a
character length lock,
or a minimum length
and bar code being
scanned does not
satisfy the
programmed criteria.

Verify that the bar code that is
being scanned falls into the
criteria.
(Typical of Non-UPC/EAN
codes. The scanner defaults to
a minimum of 4 character bar
code.)

The unit scans
a bar code, but
locks up after
the first scan
(red LED stays
on).

The scanner is
configured to support
some form of host
handshaking but is not
receiving the signal.

If the scanner 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.

The unit scans,
but the data
transmitted to
the host is
incorrect.

The scanner’s data
format does not match
the host system
requirements.

Verify that the scanner’s data
format matches that required by
the host. Make sure that the
scanner is connected to the
proper host port.

RS232 DEMONSTRATION PROGRAM
If an RS232 scanner is not communicating with your IBM compatible PC, key
in the following BASIC program to test that the communication port and
scanner are working. 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. At this point, investigate whether the application software and
the scanner configuration match. If the application does not support RS-232
scanners, a software wedge program that will take RS-232 data and place it
into a keyboard buffer may be needed. This program tells the PC to ignore
RTS-CTS, Data Set Ready (DSR) and Data Carrier Detect (DCD) signals. If
the demonstration program works and yours still does not, jumper RTS to
CTS and Data Terminal Reading (DTR) to DCD and DSR on the back of your
PC.

specified herein may result in hazardous laser light exposure. Under no
circumstances should the customer attempt to service the laser scanner. Never
attempt to look at the laser beam, even if the scanner appears to be nonfunctional.
Never open the scanner in an attempt to look into the device. Doing so could
result in hazardous laser light exposure. The use of optical instruments with the
laser equipment will increase eye hazard.
Atención
La modificación de los procedimientos, o la utilización de controles o ajustes
distintos de los especificados aquí, pueden provocar una luz de láser peligrosa.
Bajo ninguna circunstancia el usuario deberá realizar el mantenimiento del láser
del escáner. Ni intentar mirar al haz del láser incluso cuando este no esté
