Spray glass cleaner onto lint free, non-abrasive cleaning cloth. Gently wipe the scanner window. For the MS7600 red window: 1. 2. Use mild soap and water with lint free, non-abrasive cleaning cloth. Gently wipe the scanner window.
SCANNER LABELS Each scanner has a label on the back of the unit. The label contains 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.
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.
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 14: 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.
FAILURE MODES Figure 15: 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.
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. Next Beep Tone ³ 9 9 9 9 7 5 Changing the Beeper Volume Volume levels may be programmed directly or incrementally using the following bar code.
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.
