INTRODUCTION The MS5145 Eclipse is a single-line, hand-held laser scanner. Equipped with Metrologic’s patented CodeGate technology, Eclipse can be used in a wide variety of applications. CodeGate technology allows the user to easily target the desired bar code and complete the data transmission with a simple press of a button. This combination makes Eclipse a perfect selection for menu scanning, point-of-sale, document processing and inventory control.
ACCESSORIES AND SUPPLIES The following is a list of parts that may or may not be included in the MS5145 kit. • Eclipse MS5145 Single-Line Laser Scanner • AC to DC Power Transformer – Regulated 5.2VDC @ 650 mA output • • One of the following may be included: • 120 V United States [ MLPN 45-45593 ] • 220 V - 240 V Continental European [ MLPN 45-45591 ] • 220 V – 240 V United Kingdom [ MLPN 45-45592 ] PowerLink Cable • One of the following may be included: • RS232 Cable: 2.
QUICK START 1. Connect the 10-pin RJ45 plug into the jack on the Eclipse MS5145. You will hear a ‘click’ when the connection is made. 2. Connect the L-shaped plug of the power supply into the power jack on the PowerLink cable. 3. Connect the power supply into an AC outlet. Make sure the AC input requirements of the power supply match the AC outlet. (See caution statement below) p n 4.
STANDARD RS232 SCANNER INSTALLATION 1. Turn off the host system. 2. Connect the 10-pin RJ45 plug of the PowerLink cable into the jack on the MS5145 RS232 scanner. Note: If the MS5145 is receiving power from the host system, skip to step #5. (See caution statement below*) 3. Connect the L-shaped plug of the power supply into the power jack on the PowerLink cable. (See caution statement below**) 4. Make sure the AC input requirements of the power supply match the AC outlet.
KEYBOARD WEDGE SCANNER INSTALLATION 1. Turn off the host system. 2. Connect the 10-pin RJ45 plug of the PowerLink cable into the jack on the MS5145. 3. Disconnect the keyboard from the host system. 4. Connect the L-shaped plug of the power supply into the power jack on the PowerLink cable (refer to the manufacturer’s recommendation and Note on page 6). 5. Make sure the AC input requirements of the power supply match the AC outlet.
KEYBOARD WEDGE INSTALLATION (CONTINUED) Manufacturer’s Recommendation If the keyboard port of the host system cannot supply enough current, the use of an external power supply with the MS5145 Keyboard Wedge will be necessary. Powering the MS5145 directly from the computer keyboard connector could interfere with the operation of the scanner or the computer.
USB SCANNER INSTALLATION 1. Connect the 10-pin RJ45 plug of the PowerLink cable into the jack on the MS5145 USB scanner. Note: The MS5145 USB scanner will receive power directly from the host system; no external power supply is required. 2. Connect the USB connector of the PowerLink cable into the USB port of the host system. n 3. o When the MS5145 is ready to scan, the green LED will turn on, the red LED will flash and the scanner will beep once.
DISCONNECTING THE POWERLINK CABLE FROM THE SCANNER Before removing the cable from the scanner, Metrologic recommends that the power on the host system is off and the power supply has been disconnected from the PowerLink cable. o& p q n 1. Locate the small ‘pin-hole’ on the back of the scanner. 2. Bend an ordinary paperclip into the shape shown above. 3. Insert the paperclip (or other small metallic pin) into the small ‘pin-hole’. 4. You will hear a faint ‘click’.
SCANNER PARTS 1. Green & Red LEDs The MS5145’s laser pulses on and off when no bar code is presented, and stays on when it senses a bar code. The green LED remains on during normal pulse and scanning operation, and it blinks during power save mode. On a successful read of a bar code, the red LED will flash and the scanner will beep once. The LEDs are also used as diagnostic indicators and mode indicators. 2. Output Window Laser Light emits from this aperture. 3.
AUDIBLE INDICATORS When the MS5145 scanner is operational, 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). To change the tone, refer to the Configuration Guide. One Beep – on power up The green LED will turn on, then 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.
VISUAL INDICATORS There is a red LED and a green LED on the MS5145. When the scanner is on, the activity of the LEDs indicates the status of the current scan and the scanner. Green and Red LEDs are off The LEDs will not be illuminated if the scanner is not receiving power from the host or transformer. Steady Green Indicates normal pulse or continuous laser operation. Accompanied by a razzberry tone, it indicates that an invalid bar code has been scanned.
FAILURE MODES One Razzberry Tone on Power-up This indicates the scanner has experienced a laser or flipper subsystem failure. Return the unit for repair to a Metrologic Authorized Service Center. Continuous Razzberry Tone with all LEDs off If, upon power up, the scanner emits a continuous razzberry tone, then the scanner has an experienced an electronic failure. Return the unit for repair to a Metrologic Authorized Service Center.

TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE The following guide is for reference purposes only. Contact a Metrologic representative to preserve the limited warranty terms on page 31. SYMPTOMS POSSIBLE CAUSE(S) SOLUTION No power is being supplied to the scanner Check transformer, outlet and power strip. Make sure the cable is plugged into the scanner. No power is being supplied to the scanner from host Some host systems cannot supply enough current to power the MS5145. Use the proper power supply.
TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE (CONTINUED) SYMPTOMS POSSIBLE CAUSE(S) SOLUTION The unit powers up, but does not scan 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.
TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE (CONTINUED) SYMPTOMS POSSIBLE CAUSE(S) SOLUTION Scanner beeps at some bar codes and NOT for others of the same bar code symbology The bar code may have been printed incorrectly Check if it is a check digit/character/or border problem. Scanner beeps at some bar codes and NOT for others of the same bar code symbology The scanner is not configured correctly for this type of bar code Check if check digits are set properly.
TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE (CONTINUED) SYMPTOMS The unit is not transmitting each character (Keyboard Wedge) POSSIBLE CAUSE(S) SOLUTION Configuration is not correct Increase interscan code delay setting. Adjust whether the F0 break is transmitted. It may be necessary to try this in both settings. Alpha characters show as lower case (Keyboard Wedge) Computer is in Caps Lock mode Enable Caps Lock detect setting of the scanner to detect whether the PC is operating in Caps Lock.
RS-232 DEMONSTRATION PROGRAM If an RS-232 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 communication 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.
