Cable Removal

DESCRIPTION

Figure 1. Scanner Components

1. Locate the small ‘pin-hole’ on t he bottom of the scanner near the cable.

2. Bend an ordinary paperclip into the shape shown.

3. Insert the paperclip into the small ‘pin-hole’.

4. There will be a faint ‘click’ when the cable lock is released. Pull gently on the strain-relief of the PowerLink cable to remove it from the scanner.

INTRODUCTION

Caution and Serial Number Labels

Figure 3. Label Location on the Bottom of the Scanner with Example

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 60950-1.

To maintain compliance with standard CSA C22.2 No. 60950-1/UL 60950-1 and norm

EN/IEC 60950-1, the power source should meet applicable performance requirements for a limited power source.

Maintenance

Smudges and dirt on the unit's window can interfere with the unit's perform anc e. If the window requires cleaning, us e only a mild glass cleaner containing no ammonia. When cleaning the window, spray the cleaner onto a lint free, nonabrasive cleaning cloth then gent ly wipe the window clean.

If the unit's case requires cleaning, use a mild cleaning agent that does not contain strong oxidizing chemical s . Strong cleaning agents may discol or or damage the unit's exterior.

1. Drill three #39 pilot holes. Note the position OrbitCG will rest (see Figure 5). Use the dimensions provided in Figure 5 or the lock ing plate as a template to drill three #39 pilot holes in the mounting surface.

2. Attach the locking plate to the wall/counter. Secure the locking plate to the counter/wall with the three #7 x 1.00" wood screws provided (see Figure 6).

3. Attach the base plate to the Orbi tCG. Secure the base cover to the bottom of OrbitCG using the four M3 x 8 mm screws provided (see Figure 7).

4. Mount OrbitCG to the locking plate. Hold OrbitCG 90° clockwise from the desired position then lower it over the locking plate until it sits flush to the countertop. Twist OrbitCG counter clockwise 90° to lock the scanner in place (see Figure 8).

INSTALLATION

RS232, Light Pen Emulation

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 7180.

3. Connect the 9-pin female end of t he PowerLink cable to the host device.

4. Plug the external 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. Turn on the host device.

When the scanner first receives power, the blue and white LED will toggle on and off then the scanner will beep once.

Plugging the scanner into the serial port of the PC does not guarantee that scanned information will appear at the PC. A software driver and correct configuration setting may be req ui r ed for proper communication to occur.

Powering the 7180 directly from the host device can sometimes cause interference with the operat ion of the scanner or the computer. Not all computers supply the same curr ent. For this reason, Honeywell recommends using an external power supply. For additional information contact a customer service representative.

See page 5.

INSTALLATION

RS485

1. Turn off the host device.

2. Plug the male 10-pin RJ45 end of the MVC cable into the 10-pin socket on the 7180.

3. Connect the other end of the MVC cable to the host device.

4. Turn on the host device.

When the scanner first receives power, the blue and white LED will toggle on and off then the scanner will beep once.

Plugging the scanner into the port of the PC does not guarantee that scanned informat i on will appear at the PC. A software driver and correct configuratio n s etting are also required for proper communication to occur.

INSTALLATION

Keyboard Wedge

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 7180.

3. Disconnect the keyboard from the host device.

4. Connect the “Y” end of the PowerLink cable to the keyboard and the keyboard port on the host PC. If necessary use the male/female adapter cable supplied with the scanner for proper connections .

5. Plug the external 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.

6. Connect AC power to the transformer .

7. Turn on the host device.

When the scanner first receives power, the blue and white LED will toggle on and off then the scanner will beep once.

Powering the 7180 directly from the host device can sometimes cause interference with the operat ion of the scanner or the computer. Not all computers supply the same curr ent through the keyboard port. For this reason, Honeywell recomm ends using an external power supply. For additional informat ion contact a customer service representative.

INSTALLATION

Stand-Alone Keyboard

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 7180.

3. Connect the other end of the PowerLink cable to the keyboard port on the host device.

4. Plug the external power supply into the power jack on the PowerLink cable.

As a default, the MS7180-38 leaves the factory with USB Keyboard Emulation Mode enabled. Scan the following bar code to configure the MS7180-38 for USB Serial Emulation Mode.

Plugging the scanner into the USB por t of the PC does not guarantee that scanned information will appear at the PC. A software driver and the correct configuration settings are also required for proper communication to occur.

For Previous User’s of the 7120 Orbit* with an MX009:

The following bar code must be scanned in order for the new integrated USB 7180 OrbitCG to function with the same serial emulation driver as the old externa l USB 7120.
