INSTALLING THE SCANNER TO THE HOST SYSTEM
RS232 MS1690-14
1. Turn off the host device.
2. Plug the male 10-pin RJ45 end of
the PowerLink cable into the 10-pin
socket on the Focus. You will hear a
‘click’ when the connection is made.
3. Connect the 9-pin D-type connector
of the communication cable to the
proper COM port of the host device.
4. Plug the power supply into the power
jack on the PowerLink cable.
Check the AC input
requirements of the power
supply to make sure the
voltage matches the AC
outlet. The outlet must be
located near the equipment
and be easily accessible.
5. Connect AC power to the transformer.
6. Focus will start to initialize. All LEDs (yellow, white, and blue) will light for
approximately 2 seconds then start to alternately flash. When the scanner
has finished initializing the LEDs will stop flashing and the unit will beep
3 times indicating that the scanner is ready for use.
7. Turn on the host device.
Plugging the scanner into a port on the host system does not guarantee
that scanned information will be communicated properly to the host
system. The scanner is shipped from the factory configured with default
settings. Please refer to the MetroSelect Single-Line Configuration
Guide (MLPN 00-02544) or MetroSet2’s help files for instructions on
changing the scanner’s configuration. In addition, please check that the
scanner and host system are using the same communication protocol.
Caution:
To maintain compliance with applicable standards, all circuits connected to the scanner must
meet the requirements for SELV (Safety Extra Low Voltage) according to EN/IEC 60950.
To maintain compliance with standard CSA-C22.2 No. 60950-00/UL 60950 and norm EN/IEC
60950, the power source should meet applicable performance requirements for a limited
power source.
