CONFIGURATION MODES
The MS9524/44 Voyager
PDF Series has 3 modes of configuration.
• Bar Codes
Voyager
PDF or VoyagerPDF with CodeGate can be configured by scanning
the bar codes located in Metrologic's configuration guides,
MLPN 00-02544
and
MLPN 00-02990 or MetroSet2’s help files. Please refer to these guides
for instructions. These manuals can be downloaded for FREE from
Metrologic’s website (www.metrologic.com).
• MetroSet2
This user-friendly Windows-based configuration program allows you to
simply ‘point-and-click’ at the desired scanner options. This program can
be downloaded for FREE from Metrologic’ website (www.metrologic.com),
or set-up disks can be ordered by calling 1-800-ID-METRO.
• Serial Configuration
This mode of configuration is ideal for OEM applications. This mode gives
the end-user the ability to send a series of commands using the serial port
of the host system. The commands are equivalent to the numerical values
of the bar codes located in the MetroSelect Single-Line Configuration
Guide (
MLPN 00-02544).
How does Serial Configuration work?
1. Each command sent to the scanner is the ASCII representation of each
numeral in the configuration bar code. The entire numeric string is framed
with an ASCII [stx] and an ASCII [etx].
EXAMPLE #1
:
Command for Disabling Codabar
Command = [stx]100104[etx]
String Sent to Scanner = 02h 31h 30h 30h 31h 30h 34h 03h
(All values are hexadecimal).
2. If the command sent to the scanner is valid, the scanner will respond with
an [ack].
3. If the command sent to the scanner in invalid, the scanner will respond
with a [nak].
NOTE: If this occurs, the end-user must start over at the very beginning
of the configuration sequence. Simply re-transmitting the invalid
command will not work. You must start over.
