1 Quick Start Chapter Contents Step 1 - Plan Scanning System .............................................................. 1-2 Step 2 - Attach Cabling ........................................................................... 1-3 Step 3 - Consider Read Range and Scan Width .................................... 1-4 Step 4 - Position Scanner ....................................................................... 1-5 Step 5 - Mount Scanner ....................................................................
Step 1 Plan Scanning System Before installing the MS-710 scanner you should sketch out a diagram of your scanning system, showing equipment, connector and cable types, and cable lengths. (For wiring information, see “Attach Cabling” on page 1-3.
Attach Cabling The MS-710 has a 15-pin internal connector with a standard, hard-wired 3-foot cable terminating in an external 15-pin connector. Since +5 VDC power supply is included in the single cabling assembly, the scanner cable should not exceed 3 feet. RS-232 cabling from the 15-pin connector to the host can be up to 47 feet provided it does not include 5 VDC input.
1–Quick Start Chapter 1 Step 3 Consider Read Range and Scan Width a) Verify that the labels to be scanned will pass through the readable range. Optimum decode rates can be expected at the center of the depth of field (halfway between minimum and maximum read range) for a given bar code density. b) Note the approximate scan width at the specific distance the labels will be passing through. Read range is the distance from the scanner in which a passing label can be read.
Position Scanner a) Position the scanner in a place devoid of sunlight, bright lights, or laser light from other sources. b) Avoid excessive tilt,skew, or pitch. Maximum tilt is determined by label characteristics and the number of scans required. Maximum skew is ±40°; maximum pitch is ±50°.1 c) Pitch label slightly to avoid specular reflection, the return of direct, non-diffused light.
1–Quick Start Chapter 1 Step 5 Mount Scanner The MS-710 scanner can be top or bottom mounted depending on your model type. Use the measurements provided in figure 1-8 to locate centers of mounting holes and drill as specified: Top mount – drill two 0.16 inch (4.06 mm) diameter holes. Bottom mount – drill two 0.203 inch (5.16 mm) diameter holes. 0.53" (1.35 cm) 3.47" (8.81 cm) 2.50" (6.35 cm) 0.519" (1.32 cm) 1.206" (3.06 cm) Optional Mounting Holes (2 places) #6-32 x 0.29 deep Top cable 2.59" (6.
Establish Communications To set up the host communications, from the ESP™ main menu: a) Select Serial Port and Configure from the pull-down menus. b) Make the port selection from Serial Port options COM 1 through COM 8. (Usually COM 2 for desktops and COM 1 for laptops.) c) Click the Auto Baud button down menu. or select Auto Baud from Serial Port pull ESP will cycle through the various baud, etc.
1–Quick Start Chapter 1 Step 7 Configure Scanner You can make changes from the default settings by modifying individual ESP menus and saving those changes to the scanner. For explanations of menu configuration settings, see Chapter 2, “Menu Configuration.” Note: When you save communications changes to the scanner, serial port settings are automatically matched.
Test Decode Rate with Static Label a) Position the label in front of a functioning scanner, click on the Utilities button, and in the Read Rate dialog either click the Percent or Decodes/Sec radio button and click Start, or enter the or command from the host terminal to launch test. b) Observe rate. (The percent or decode rate is added to the front of the data string.) c) End the test by clicking the Stop button or the command.
1–Quick Start Chapter 1 Step 9 Test Decode Rate with Moving Label Once you’ve mounted the scanner and established a good read rate with a stationary label, you can repeat the test with a moving label. To ensure reliable scanning, you need to apply a minimum of five scans to each label. This means that all variables, label speed, read range, etc. are significant.
1–Quick Start Step 10 Increase the Number of Scans Where possible, you can increase the number of scans a label receives by: • Increasing label height • Decreasing label length • Increasing scan rate (spinning mirror speed) • Slowing label speed See Appendix F, “Number of Scans,” on page A-11.

Aux. Port Host • Aux Port data is not echoed. 2–Menu Config.
Chapter 2 Daisy Chain Mode 2–Menu Config. In a daisy chain application, a primary scanner is linked directly to the host and succeeding scanners are linked in tandem. The source of transmitted data can be identified by enabling and assigning daisy chain IDs to each scanner. Host Succeeding Scanner(s) Just before sending a noread message, the primary scanPrimary Scanner ner checks its auxiliary port for data. It waits a maximum of 20 ms.
Communications Menu Daisy Chain ID Status Default: Disabled Options: Disabled, Enabled. Daisy Chain ID Default: 1/ Options: Any one or two ASCII characters. MS-710 Scanner User’s Manual 2-11 2–Menu Config. Each scanner enabled for Daisy Chain can be assigned a one or two character Daisy Chain ID that appears in front of the data decoded by that scanner. Enable/Disable and Length must be the same in all scanners.
Chapter 2 Protocol Menu 2–Menu Config. Protocols define the sequence and format in which information is transferred between devices. Figure 2-3 Protocol Default Clicking the DEFAULT button will reset all parameters on the current menu to defaults. This does not take effect until it is saved to the scanner with the SEND/NO SAVE or SEND/SAVE buttons.
Protocol Menu host, when ready, responds with a CTS (clear-to-send) and the data is transmitted. CTS and RTS signals are transmitted over two dedicated wires (pins 6 and 10) as defined in the RS-232 standard. Point-to-Point with XON/XOFF (Transmitter On/Off) Used only with RS-232. This selection enables the host to send a single byte XON or XOFF transmission command of start (^Q) or stop (^S). If an XOFF has been received from the host, data will not be sent to the host until the host sends an XON.
Chapter 2 2–Menu Config. From Host Default: Disabled Options: Disabled, Enabled Messages sent to the host from the MS-810 will always include the scanner’s defined protocol. The status of From Host determines if messages sent to the MS-810 from the host must also include the defined protocol. If From Host is disabled, the defined protocol is not included. If From Host is enabled, the defined protocol must be included. (See “Explanation of the From Host option,” on page 3-7 for further information.
Protocol Menu Preamble (enable/disable) Default: Disabled Options: Disabled, Enabled (within any protocol) Allows you to enable or disable the preamble character(s). Postamble Default: ^M^J Options: Any ASCII character, including control characters. Postamble (enable/disable) Default: Enabled Options: Enabled, Disabled (within any protocol) Allows you to enable or disable the Postamble character(s).
Chapter 2 2–Menu Config. Operation Menu Figure 2-4 Operation Menu Structure Default Clicking the DEFAULT button will reset all parameters on the current menu to defaults. This does not take effect until it is saved to the scanner with the SEND/NO SAVE or SEND/SAVE buttons.
Operation Menu label is in the read range of the scanner. When To Output options have no affect on Continuous Read. Continuous Read is useful in testing label or scanner functions. Continuous Read 1 Output Note: Enabling Continuous Read 1 Output when Number of Labels (page 2-21) is set to any number greater than one will cause Number of Labels to default back to one.
Chapter 2 External Edge As with Level, Edge allows a read cycle to be initiated by a trigger signal from an object detector when it detects the appearance of an object (rising edge). But unlike Level mode, the removal of an object (falling edge) does not end the read cycle. With Edge enabled, the read cycle ends with a good read output, a timeout, or a new trigger (figure 2-6 on page 2-18). 1 2–Menu Config.
Operation Menu Timeout Can end the read cycle after a specified period of time, and if no label has been read, causes a noread message, if enabled, to be transmitted. With either External Edge, Serial Data, or Serial Data & Edge enabled, a timeout ends the read cycle. With External Level enabled, the read cycle does not end until the falling edge trigger occurs, and the next read cycle does not begin until the next rising edge trigger.
Chapter 2 Serial Trigger Character Default: ^]. Corresponds to displayed in the menu. Options: Any single ASCII character, including control characters, except NUL (00H), an existing host command character,1 or an on-line protocol character. 2–Menu Config. Note: Serial Data (page 2-18) or Serial Data & Edge (page 2-18) must be enabled for Serial Trigger Character to take effect. “N/A” is displayed in the menu when all other triggering modes are enabled.
Operation Menu Good Decode Reads Default: 1 Options: 1 to 31 Allows you to select the number of good reads (from 1 to 31) required per label before a good decode output. Note: Be sure to set the value within the determined scan rate for the scanning setup so that the scanner is capable of scanning a label the required number of times.
Chapter 2 Multilabel Separator Default: , (comma) Options: Any available ASCII character, except NUL. Allows you to choose the separator character to be inserted between each label. Note: UPC separator character, if used, must be different than the multilabel separator. 2–Menu Config.
Operation Menu Sequential Instructs the scanner to compare labels or portions of labels for sequential numbers in ascending or descending order. There are four ways to load a master (see “Master Label Entry” on page 2-24). In every case sequencing occurs after each match. See “Match Code Type” on page 3-11 for special noread and mismatch sequences. Wild Card Allows you to enter user defined wild card characters in the master label.
Chapter 2 Match Length Default: 1 Options: 1 to 31 2–Menu Config. Defines the length of the character string that will be compared with that of the master label when Match Code Type is set to Enabled or Sequential and Match Start position is set to 1 or greater. For example, If Match Length is set to 6 in a 10 character label, and Match Start Position is set for 2, only the 2nd through 7th characters (from left to right) will be compared.
Code Type Menu Code Type Menu 2–Menu Config. Figure 2-8 Code Types Menu Structure Default Clicking the DEFAULT button will reset all parameters on the current menu to defaults. This does not take effect until it is saved to the scanner with the SEND/NO SAVE or SEND/SAVE buttons. Code 39 Default: Enabled Options: Enabled, Disabled Check Digit Default: Disabled Options: Disabled, Enabled Code 39 is self-checking and does not normally require a check digit.
Chapter 2 Check Digit Output Default: Disabled Options: Disabled, Enabled When enabled, the check digit character is sent along with the label data. When disabled, label data is sent without the check digit. 2–Menu Config. Large Intercharacter Gap Default: Disabled Options: Disabled, Enabled Allows the scanner to read labels with gaps between bar code characters exceeding three times the narrow element width.
Code Type Menu Start & Stop Output Default: Enabled Options: Enabled, Disabled Allows the start and stop characters to be transmitted with bar code data. Large Intercharacter Gap Default: Disabled Options: Disabled, Enabled Fixed Code Length Default: Disabled Options: Disabled, Enabled Used to increase data integrity by ensuring that only label length will be accepted. Code Length Default: 10 Options: 1 to 64 Note: Fixed Code Length must be enabled for Code Length to take effect.
Chapter 2 Interleaved 2 of 5 Default: Disabled Options: Disabled, Enabled 2–Menu Config. Because I 2 of 5 is a continuous code, it is prone to substitution errors. Hence, a code length must be defined and a bar code label containing an even number of digits must be used. It is also recommended that a Modulus 10 check digit be used to ensure the best possible data integrity. Check Digit Default: Disabled Options: Disabled, Enabled I 2 of 5 uses a Modulus 10 check digit.
Code Type Menu UPC Default: Disabled Options: Disabled, Enabled When enabled, the scanner will read UPC version A and UPC version E only. EAN Disabled Options: Disabled, Enabled Note: UPC must be enabled for EAN to take effect. When EAN is enabled, the scanner will read UPC version A, UPC version E, EAN 13, and EAN 8. It will also append a leading zero to UPC version A label information and transmit 13 digits. If you do not want to transmit 13 digits when reading UPC version A labels, disable EAN.
Chapter 2 Note: If additional labels—other than the main or supplemental—will be read in the same read cycle, Number of Labels should be set accordingly. Separator Default: Disabled Options: Disabled, Enabled 2–Menu Config. Allows you to insert a character between the standard UPC or EAN code and the supplemental code when Supplementals is set to Required. Separator (character) Default: , (comma) Options: Any ASCII character.

Chapter 2 2–Menu Config. Output Menu Figure 2-9 Scanner Output Menu Structure Default Clicking the DEFAULT button will reset all parameters on the current menu to defaults. This does not take effect until it is saved to the scanner with the SEND/NO SAVE or SEND/SAVE buttons. Note: Bar code output data and noread messages are transmitted on pin 2 under conditions set principally in Bar Code Output.
Output Menu Output On Default: Mismatch or Noread Options: Mismatch or Noread, Match, Mismatch, Noread Note: If Output On is set to Mismatch or Noread, Match, or Mismatch, a relay pulse will not output unless Match Code Type (page 2-22) is not disabled and a master label is downloaded into memory (page 2-21). Note: To send a pulse on a Good Read, enable Match and disable Match Code Type (see “Match Code Type” on page 2-22).
Chapter 2 # Before Output Default: 1 Options: 1 to 255 Allows you to determine the number of consecutive hits (matches, mismatches, or noreads as configured by Output On) that must occur before a relay pulse will be sent from Relay-1 or Relay-2. 2–Menu Config. For example, if # Before Output is set to 3 and Relay-1 is set to Noread, then relay-1 will not fire until 3 consecutive noreads have occurred. Note: The hits must be consecutive and each one must match the configured Output On condition.
Output Menu End of Read Cycle Causes bar code data output to be delayed until the end of the read cycle. Noread Message Default: NOREAD Options: Up to seven ASCII characters (except NUL) Noread Output (enable/disable) Default: Enabled Options: Enabled, Disabled Note: If Noread Output is enabled, the noread message will only output if Bar Code Output (page 2-34) is also enabled and MS-sensor Status (page 2-40) is disabled. Allows you to enable or disable the noread message.
Chapter 2 K Command Options 2–Menu Config. Echo K Command Default: Disabled Options: Disabled, Enabled When enabled, serial configuration commands (“K” commands) will be processed and the new string for that command will be echoed back to the host. If an invalid command is sent to the host, the scanner will echo back the current setting of that command. For example, if the current Noread Message is “NOREAD” and is entered, the scanner will echo back: .
Output Menu Partial Output Default: Disabled Options: Disabled, Enabled When enabled, allows you to pre-select portions of labels to be transmitted by the scanner. In multilabel mode, partial output is performed on each separate label. For example, if Start Position is set to 3 and Partial Length is set to 5, the following labels are transmitted as follows: 2–Menu Config.
Chapter 2 Setup Menu 2–Menu Config. The Setup menu allows you to set specific bar code scanning parameters that affect decode rate, and if equipped with the MS-sensor, allows you to determine why the scanner did not decode a specific label within the triggered read cycle. Figure 2-10 Setup Menu Structure Default Clicking the DEFAULT button will reset all parameters on the current menu to defaults. This does not take effect until it is saved to the scanner with the SEND/NO SAVE or SEND/SAVE buttons.
Setup Menu Factory Settings Scans per Second Default: 50. Corresponds to 500 (scans per second) displayed in the menu. Options: 30 to 55. Multiply the number to be entered by 10 for actual scans per second. Allows you to set the number of scans per second by controlling mirror motor speed. The range is 300 to 550 scans per second. Default: 45 (nominal) Options: 10 to 255 2–Menu Config.
Chapter 2 MS-sensor Parameters1 Default: Disabled Options: Disabled, Enabled 2–Menu Config. Note: See “MS-Sensor” on page A-24. The specular sensor—once you adjust it to your environment—determines why the scanner fails to decode a label within the triggered read cycle. It then outputs the appropriate message to you. The following three conditions are possible: 1. the object’s bar code is defective (you receive a bad bar code message) 2.

Read Rate Read Rate Decode (and percentage) rates can vary dramatically due to the angle and location of the label in relation to the scan beam (or scan line, if using a scan head with a moving beam). These tests are very useful in aligning and positioning the scanning device during installation. Single Label Percent Test Clicking Single Label Percent and Start instructs the scanner to output the percent of decodes and any scanned label data.
Chapter 4 End Read Rate Test Clicking Stop ends both the Percent test and the Decodes/Second test for both single and multi-label. Associated serial command: Extended Mode Choosing any of the Read Rate modes along with Extended Mode affects both single and multiple labels. It instructs the scanner to output the transition data along with the data from the latest test command sent.
Trigger Trigger Clicking the Setup button will bring up the current trigger character. Next click Send to send the trigger character to the scanner and initiate a read cycle. The results, a good read or noread message, will be displayed on the blank screen below the button. Note: Your scanner must be in a point-to-point protocol for Trigger Setup to work. Note: You can define the trigger character in the Operations menu.
Chapter 4 Scanner Enable Laser Scanning Clicking the Laser On button or sending serial command will turn the laser on continuously. Note: Enable Laser Scanning does not relate to Laser On/Off command. Associated serial command: Disable Laser Scanning Clicking Laser Off will turn the laser off. This feature is useful during extended periods of time when no bar code labels are being scanned or the scanner is being configured.
Counters Counters Counter commands can be a numeric value from 00000 to 65,535. After reaching the maximum numeric limit of 65,535, an error message will be displayed and the counter will automatically rollover and start counting again at 00000. To obtain the cumulative total of counts after the rollover has occurred, add 65,536 per each rollover (the scanner does not keep track of the number of rollovers) to the current count.
Chapter 4 or, if Master Label is not enabled, the number of good reads since the last reset. This counter is always enabled, but will only work as a match count when Master Label is enabled. If Master Label is not enabled, this counter records the number of good reads. This count can be requested at any time. Associated serial command: Match Counter Reset Clicking Reset sets the Match Counter to 00000.
Master Label Master Label Enable Match Code Type Identical to “Match Code Type,” on page 2-22. Instructs the scanner to compare bar code labels being scanned with a master label and may under certain conditions send out a relay driver signal and update internal counters. If no master label has been entered, every decoded label will be a “mismatch” and will increment the mismatch counter by one. Enable Match Code Type is intended for use when the scanner is in a triggered mode.

FIS Options Each MS-710 model is identified by an FIS (final instruction sheet) number that refer to a set of options.
Electrical Specifications Appendix B — Electrical Specifications Power Supply Requirements: Input +5 VDC ±4% regulated @ 480 mA with 200 mV p-p max. ripple. Table A-2 applies to those FIS options that use RS-232 communications. Table A-3 applies to those FIS options that use RS-422/485 options. The affected pins are 2, 3, 6, and 10.
Ground and Shield Considerations Proper grounding is necessary for operator safety, noise reduction, and the protection of equipment from voltage transients. Buildings, including any steelwork, all circuits, and all junction boxes must be grounded directly to an earth ground in compliance with local and national electrical codes. RS-232 signals have a common signal ground (pin 4). Pin 4 is normally connected to pin 13 (chassis ground) in the scanner; however, under certain conditions (e.g.

Appendix D — Orientation If the bar code label bars are parallel to the direction of travel, as shown in figure A-5, the label is said to be in a ladder orientation; if the bars are perpendicular with the direction of travel, the label is said to be in a picket fence orientation (figure A-6). Ladder Orientation In general, depending on label size and speed, ladder orientation is preferable because different portions of the label are scanned as the label goes by.
Orientation Angled Picket Fence Orientation The problems associated with picket fence can be minimized by slightly tilting the scan line (figure A-7). This allows a larger portion of the label to be scanned and increases the label placement area by “simulating” the ladder orientation. This of course is impractical with a short bar code height.
Appendix E — Defaulting the Scanner Defaulting the scanner resets all scanner configuration parameters except Scanner Type, SPS, and Gain Adjustment to their original default values. These values are saved to NOVRAM for power-on by entering the command (Save Scanner Type, SPS, and Gain for Power-on). RAM NOVRAM ROM Defaulting is necessary if: • You wish to quickly restore default settings to the configuration program after making some temporary changes.
Number of Scans Appendix F — Number of Scans To ensure reliable scanning, apply a minimum of five scans to each label. Use the formulas below to calculate the number of scans that your label will receive. For definitions of terms, see inset on page A-12. If the number of scans you derive from one of these calculations is less than the minimum for your application, plug in the minimum number of scans (5) and solve for another parameter that might be changed, such as label speed or scans per second.
Angled Picket Fence Calculation Direction of label travel The number of complete scans for angled picket fence is calculated the same as that for picket fence, with the exception that the scan width is shortened in proportion to scan tilt. Scan Line Figure A-11 Angled Picket Fence Orientation Definitions Scan Rate (SR) is the number of scans per second that a given scanner is capable of emitting.
Number of Scans After making changes, repeat “Number of Scans” on page A-11 and step 9, “Test Decode Rate with Moving Label,” on page 1-10. Range Adjusting the label’s range, if possible, is one of the quickest and most effective ways to improve decode rates. However, in some applications you may need to select a less than optimum range, or one that is beyond the fringes of the ranges listed in table A-1 on page A-3.
Appendix G — Troubleshooting Operational Tips Do: • Check inputs (label speed, length, height, etc.) to ensure the desired number of scans per label. • Avoid excessive tilt, pitch, and skew of the bar code label. • Check the label for readability by doing a decode rate test. If there is any question about the label's readability, contact your Microscan representative. • After changing any parameter that might affect decode rate, repeat decode rate test.

Appendix H — Using the IB-105 P/N: 99-420001 The IB-105 is a separately sold item that provides additional functionality to the MS-710. Specifically: • Default switch • A normally open relay • RTS/CTS • RS-485 Multidrop • New master switch • RS-232/RS-422 Mode switch • Aux port • Power switch The IB-105 is available in five options (see Table A-11, “IB-105 Options,” on page A20).

Using the IB-105 Mode Switch Used in options -01 and -02 to toggle the host port between RS -232 and RS-485 or between RS-232 and RS-422, respectively. Options -03 and -04 require that the Mode switch be pushed IN for proper operation. 25-pin (host) Connector The 25-pin (host) connector is similar to the MS-3000 host connector; therefore, applications that were set up for the MS-3000 will work with the IB-105.
OPTION -02: RS-232/422 with RTS/CTS or Second RS-232 Serial Port Use the Mode switch to toggle the host port between RS-232 and RS-422. When the Mode switch is OUT, the RS-232 signals go through to the 25-pin (host) connector. Note: The second RS-232 TXD pin is available in this mode. Scanner RS-232 IB-105 RS-232 Host • When the Mode switch is IN, the IB-105 takes RS-232 signals (TXD, RXD) and converts them to RS-422 levels.
Using the IB-105 OPTION -05: RS-422 LAN to RS-232 Terminal 1 In this configuration the Mode switch must be IN for proper operation. This is a special configuration to convert RS-422 signals back to RS-232. The main purpose for this configuration is to use two IB-105’s, one to convert the scanner communications to RS-422 and one to convert these signals back to RS-232 (this configuration) for long distance communications (up to 4000 feet).
Appendix I — MS-Sensor Note: The MS-sensor is an optional FIS feature. The MS-sensor is a patented specular sensor that interprets reflected light from the laser beam. Once adjusted to your environment, it indicates why the scanner might fail to decode a label within the triggered read cycle and outputs the appropriate message to you.

Bar Code Symbology Appendix J — Bar Code Symbology Before choosing a bar code symbol, consider:1 • the type of information to be scanned • the length of the messages to be encoded • how and where labels are to be applied • label printer capabilities • • • • • scan speed range and beam width the space available on the object to be identified host software limitations the speed of the conveyor The Standard MS-710 supports the following five bar code symbologies.
Appendix K — Interface Standards Interface Standards, established by the Electronic Industries Association (EIA), specify such things as the signaling voltage levels, maximum cable lengths, and number of drivers. With Microscan devices, selection of interface is made by pin assignment and, in the case of the host communications, by software switching between RS-232 and RS-422. Microscan devices use RS-232, RS-422, and RS-485 multidrop.
Multidrop Communications Appendix L — Multidrop Communications This appendix describes the rules for setting up a concentrator or controller to communicate with a scanner in standard Multidrop protocol. The diagram to the right shows a typical Multidrop network in which 1 to 50 scanners can communicate with a host via an intermediary device, a concentrator or a controller. Polling Sequence Host Concentrator Data that is transmitted to the host (bar code data, noread messages, counters, etc.
• If the scanner transmits data to the concentrator and the concentrator responds with an ACK or NAK, but the scanner doesn’t receive the concentrator’s response, the scanner will timeout and transmit a REQ to the concentrator and request another response. If after three retries (the number of times it transmits a REQ to the concentrator) the scanner receives no response, it ends the transmission with a RES (reset).
