Introduction

Product Overview

The MS7580 Genesis is a high performance presentation area-imaging bar code imager that utilizes CMOS imaging sensors for superior image quality. Genesis utilizes custom decoder software, for reliable decoding of both 1D and 2D bar code symbologies. Sharp images can be captured and transmitted in a variety of outputs including: .jpg, .bmp, and .tiff.

Omnidirectional scanning capabilities and an excellent motion tolerance provides aggressive scanning of all standard 1D, GS1 DataBar™ (RSS), PDF417, microPDF, Composite, Matrix, and Postal Codes symbology types. Firmware updates are easily loaded into Flash memory.

The MS7580 provides an extended scan volume and a built in object detection sensor (IR) that instantly turns on the imager when an object is presented within the imager’s field of view.

Genesis		Interface Support
	Interfaces supported include:
	•	RS232
	•	USB
MS7580–124

•Keyboard Wedge

•RS485 (External via Cable)

EAS equipped models are indicated with an EAS extension on the model number (i.e., MS7580-124-EAS). See pages 39–47 for additional product information.

USB is configurable for Keyboard Emulation Mode, Bi-Directional Serial Emulation Mode or IBM OEM. The default USB setting is Keyboard Emulation Mode.

Applicable for IBM® host applications.

Note: Standard models ship with the ability to read all 1D, PDF, and 2D bar codes. Decoding and functional capability is limited and imagers will not support key features including, but not limited to, the ability to decode PDF, 2D or OCR fonts without proper limited use licenses provided by Honeywell. If you wish to purchase a limited license for one or more of the key features not included in the standard imager, please specify at the time of sale or otherwise contact a customer service representative for more information.

Labels

Each MS7580 has a label located near the top of the output window. This label provides the imager’s model number, date of manufacture, serial number, CE and caution information. Additional information has been molded into the underside of the imager's case. The following figure gives an example of the label and the molded text with their locations identified.

Figure 2. Label and Molded Text Samples

For North America:

CAUTION: To maintain compliance with applicable standards, all circuits connected to the scanner must meet the requirements of a NEC Class 2 power source or Limited Power Source as defined in UL 60950-1 Clause 2.5.

For Other Countries:

CAUTION: To maintain compliance with applicable standards, all circuits connected to the scanner must meet the requirements of a Limited Power Source as defined in IEC 60950-1 Clause 2.5.

Maintenance

Smudges and dirt on the imager's window can interfere with the imager's performance. If the window requires cleaning, use only a mild glass cleaner containing no ammonia. When cleaning the window, spray the cleaner onto a lint free, non-abrasive cleaning cloth and then gently wipe the window clean.

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

Operation

Modes of Operation

The MS7580 supports two standard modes of operation for scanning bar codes, automatic activation and manual activation scanning. Scanning while in the automatic activation mode can occur in either one of two configurable options, pass-through or presentation. Both the pass-through and the presentation options are enabled by default. With the default configuration, the imager operates in the pass-through state for 300 ms and then changes to the presentation state for additional decoding capability.

Automatic Activation Mode

Pass-through Scanning–The imager decodes only 1D and PDF bar codes. Scanning method:

1.Pass the bar code through the active scan area to scan, decode and send data.

Presentation Scanning–The imager decodes all 1D, PDF and 2D matrix codes

Scanning method:

1.Place the object in the IR activation range.

2.Hold the object's bar code in front of the scan window within the active scan area to scan, decode and send data.

Manual Activation

The imager decodes all 1D, PDF and 2D matrix codes.

Scanning method:

1.Press the button one time to activate linear targeting.

2.Press the button one time to activate linear targeting.

The MS7580 requires 12V power for pass-through capabilities to function.

 The default configuration is recommended for optimum scan performance.

Imager configuration bar codes require the manual activation mode.
