As a default, the MS3580-38 leaves the factory with USB Keyboard Emulation Mode enabled.
SCANNER OPERATION Configurable Primary and Single Line Scan Pattern Modes There are two configurable scan pattern modes available with the MS3580. • The primary scan pattern mode is the default scan pattern active when the scanner starts. • The single line scan pattern mode is activated by pressing the button located on the side of the scanner. This mode is also referred to as the button mode.
SCANNER OPERATION Configurable Button Functions SINGLE SCAN PATTERN BUTTON CLICK MODE WITH CODEGATE ENABLED For illustration purposes the unit’s primary scan pattern has been set to all scan lines (omnidirectional reading) and the single line pattern has been set to single-line (menu reading) with a 5 second button click timeout configured. 14 1. The primary scan pattern is active when the scanner starts. 2. To activate the single line scan pattern, press and release the button. 3.
SCANNER OPERATION Configurable Button Functions SINGLE SCAN PATTERN BUTTON CLICK MODE WITH CODEGATE DISABLED For illustration purposes the unit’s primary scan pattern has been set to all scan lines (omnidirectional reading) and the single line pattern has been set to single-line (menu reading) with a 5 second button click timeout configured. 1. The primary scan pattern is active when the scanner starts. 2. To activate the single line scan pattern, press and release the button. 3.
SCANNER OPERATION Configurable Button Functions SINGLE SCAN PATTERN BUTTON HOLD MODE WITH CODEGATE ENABLED For illustration purposes the unit’s* primary scan pattern has been set to all scan lines (omnidirectional reading) and the single line pattern has been set to single-line (menu reading) with a 5 second button click timeout configured. 16 1. The primary scan pattern is active when the scanner starts. 2. To activate the single line scan pattern, press and hold the button. 3.
SCANNER OPERATION Configurable Button Functions 5. To scan and transmit additional bar codes, repeat steps 2 through 4. 6. The primary scan pattern will automatically reactivate after the button is released and no bar code is present in the scan field.
SCANNER OPERATION Configurable Button Functions SECONDARY SCAN PATTERN BUTTON HOLD MODE WITH CODEGATE DISABLED For illustration purposes the unit’s* primary scan pattern has been set to all scan lines (omnidirectional reading) and the secondary pattern has been set to single-line (menu reading) with a 5 second button click timeout configured. 18 1. The primary scan pattern is active when the scanner starts. 2. To activate the secondary scan pattern, press and hold the button. 3.
SCANNER OPERATION Audible Indicators When the MS3580 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, 6 alternate tones and no tone). For instructions on how to change the tone of the beeper, refer to the MetroSelect Configuration Guide (00-02407).
SCANNER OPERATION Visual Indicators The QuantumT is equipped with a blue and white LED that indicates the scanner’s state and the status of the current scan when the unit is in operation. Figure 13. Speaker Location and LED Location 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 the laser is turned off for any reason. Steady Blue When the laser is active, the blue LED is illuminated.
SCANNER OPERATION Failure Mode Indicators Flashing Blue and One Razzberry Tone This indicates that the scanner has experienced a laser subsystem failure. Return the unit to an authorized service center for repair. Flashing Blue and White and Two Razzberry Tones This indicates that the scanner has experienced a motor failure. Return the unit to an authorized service center for repair.

SCANNER OPERATION IR Activation Range* QuantumT‘s default power save mode† is Laser OFF. This power save mode turns the laser off after a configured period of non-use. Any movement detected by the IR in the activation area will cause the scanner to exit power save mode. The laser will automatically turn back on preparing the scanner for bar code recognition, decoding and transmission. Figure 18. Normal IR Activation Range * All specifications are subject to change without notice.
TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE The following guide is for reference purposes only. Contact a Honeywell representative to preserve the limited warranty terms on page 48. 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. No power is being supplied to the scanner from host.
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 During power up the unit beeps 3 times. There is a non-volatile RAM failure. Contact a service representative. During power up the unit razzes continuously. There is a RAM or ROM failure. Contact a service representative. During power up the unit razzes once and the blue LED flashes. There is a VLD failure. Contact a service representative. During power up the unit razzes twice and both LEDs flash. There is a scanner motor failure.
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).

CONFIGURATION MODES The MS3580 Series scanner has three modes of configuration. • Bar Codes The MS3580 can be configured by scanning the bar codes included in the Single-Line Configuration Guide or the Supplemental Configuration Guide. The manuals are available for download at www.honeywellaidc.com. • MetroSet2 This user-friendly Windows®-based configuration program allows you to simply ‘point-and-click’ at the desired imager options. MetroSet2 is available for download at www.honeywellaidc.com.
UPGRADING THE FIRMWARE The MS3580 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 also required to complete the upgrade. PowerLink Cable #54-54014 is required when using RS232 for the upgrade process.
SCANNER AND CABLE TERMINATIONS Scanner Pinout Connections The MS3580 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 19.
