INSTALLATION Full Speed or Low Speed USB (Integrated) 1. Turn off the host device. 2. Plug the male 10-pin RJ45 end of the USB PowerLink cable into the 10-pin socket on the MS3780. 3. Plug the other end of the USB interface cable into the host device’s USB port. 4. Turn on the host device. Figure 11. As a default, the MS3780-38 leaves the factory with USB Keyboard Emulation Mode enabled.
INSTALLATION EAS Deactivation EAS DEACTIVATION SW1 and SW2 are the switch banks inside the CheckPoint Device that set the deactivation range. The following is a list of CheckPoint recommended switch bank settings. CheckPoint Recommended Switch Bank Settings SW1 & SW2 switches 1 and 6 set to ON All Fusion models equipped with EAS capabilities have an EAS designation in their model numbers. The cable supplied with these units will have additional wires for connection to the CheckPoint Device. Figure 12.
SCANNER OPERATION The Scan Pattern Mode Select Button There are two configurable scan pattern modes available with the MS3780. • The primary scan pattern mode is the default scan pattern active when the scanner starts. By default, the primary scan pattern is set to all-scan-lines for omnidirectional reading. • Pressing the scan pattern mode button (see figure below) activates the secondary scan pattern mode. By default, the secondary scan pattern is set to single-line mode for menu reading.
SCANNER OPERATION How to Use CodeGate and the Manual Activation Mode For illustration purposes the unit’s scan pattern has been set to single-line (menu reading) mode. CODEGATE MANUAL ACTIVATION MODE* * Figure 16. Factory Defaults: This feature is not a default setting. Refer to the MetroSelect Configuration Guide for instructions on enabling the Manual Activation Mode. Figure 17.
SCANNER OPERATION Audible Indicators When the MS3780 is in operation, it can provide 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). For instruction on how to change the tone of the beeper, refer to the MetroSelect Configuration Guide (00-02407).
SCANNER OPERATION Visual Indicators There are four LEDs located on the top of the MS3780. When the scanner is on, the flashing or constant illumination of the LEDs indicates the status of the current scan and the scanner. Figure 18. LED Indicators No LEDs The LEDs will not be illuminated if the scanner is not receiving power from the host or transformer. They are also not illuminated when all lasers are turned off for any reason.
SCANNER OPERATION Failure Mode Indicators Both Blue LEDs Flashing with One Emitted Razzberry Tone This indicates that the scanner has experienced a laser subsystem failure. Return the unit to a Metrologic authorized service center for repair. Both Blue LEDs and the White LED are Flashing with Two Emitted Razzberry Tones This indicates that the scanner has experienced a motor failure. Return the unit to a Metrologic authorized service center for repair.

TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE The following guide is for reference purposes only. Contact a Metrologic representative at 1-800-ID-METRO or 1-800-436-3876 to preserve the limited warranty terms on page 42. Symptoms Possible Cause(s) Solution All Interfaces The unit has no LEDs, beeper or motor spin. No power is being supplied to the scanner. Check the transformer, outlet and power strip. Make sure the cable is plugged into the scanner. The unit has no LEDs and / or beeper.
TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE Symptoms Possible Cause(s) Solution The unit scans a bar code, but locks up after the first scan (the white 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.
TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE Symptoms Possible Cause(s) Solution All Interfaces During power up the unit beeps 3 times. There is a non-volatile RAM failure. Contact a Metrologic service representative. During power up the unit razzes continuously. There is a RAM or ROM failure. Contact a Metrologic service representative. During power up the unit razzes once and the blue LED flashes. There is a VLD failure. Contact a Metrologic service representative.
TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE Symptoms Possible Cause(s) Solution RS232 Only The host is The scanner and host receiving data may not be configured but the data does for the same interface. not look correct. Characters are being dropped. The intercharacter delay needs to be added to the transmitted output. Check that the scanner and the host are configured for the same interface. Add some intercharacter delay to the transmitted output by using the MetroSelect Configuration Guide (MLPN 00-02407).

UPGRADING THE FLASH ROM FIRMWARE The MetroSet2 program is a functional component of Metrologic’s new line of Flash- based scanners. This program allows the user of a Metrologic scanner to quickly upgrade to a new or custom version of firmware. It requires the use of a personal computer running Windows® 95 or greater and the use of a serial port. The user merely connects the scanner to a serial port on the PC, launches the MetroSet2 program, and blasts off to new software upgrades.
SCANNER AND CABLE TERMINATIONS Scanner Pinout Connections The MS3780 scanner interfaces terminate to a 10-pin modular socket. The serial # label indicates the interface enabled when the scanner is shipped from the factory. Figure 25.
