Mounting Specifications

The MS4980 has three M3 x 0.5 mm threaded inserts on the bottom of the scanner for mounting with screws.

Figure 10.

12

Mounting General Guidelines

• Avoid specular reflections, caused by ambient and internal light

sources.

• The bar code should be slightly off perpendicular to the axis of the

scanner.

• To reduce specular reflections the skew angle can vary significantly

depending on the application such as: ambient illumination sources, code size and code type.

• Excessive angles should be avoided.

• Other factors, such as surface qualities, mounting distances, secondary

windows and external illumination can easily impact these recommendations.

• If a secondary window is used, the window should be mounted as close

to the front of scanner as possible at a 90° angle to the optical axis to avoid specular reflections.

• For secondary windows, Honeywell recommends the following:

o Optical quality glass o >95% transmission in the nominal 650nm wavelength o Anti-reflective coating on both sides

• A skew angle of 15° to 20° between the normal of the bar code’s

surface and the optical axis of the imager is sufficient to avoid specular reflections.

• Avoid pitch angles above 15° to 20° to prevent code compression.

Figure 11.

Scanning Method:

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

2. Align the linear targeting line over the desired bar code.

Note: When scanning 1D programming bar codes, the bar code must

be presented to the scanner in the correct orientation, see Figure 12. PDF and 2D matrix codes may be presented in any orientation.

Figure 12. 1D Programming Bar Code Orientation

3. Press the button a second time to decode and send the data.

4. The unit will return to the default presentation mode either by the default

time length or by double clicking the button.

Note: Decoding and functional capability of the unit is restricted through the use

of license numbers provided by Honeywell. Units will not support key features such as, but not limited to, the ability to decode PDF, 2D or OCR fonts without the proper licenses. Desired licenses can be specified at the time of sale or call a customer service representative for more information. Standard models ship with the ability to read all 1D, PDF and 2D bar codes. OCR fonts are disabled by default and must be specifically requested at an additional cost.



Scanner configuration bar codes require the manual activation mode.



2D matrix bar code types are not enabled by default in the manual activation mode.

Refer to the Area-Imaging Supplemental Configuration Guide (see page 2) for additional information on enabling code types.

15

Audible Indicators

When the MS4980 is in operation, it provides audible feedback. These sounds indicate the status of the scanner. Eight settings are available for the tone of the beep (normal, six alternate tones and no tone). To change the tone, refer to the MetroSelect Single-Line Configuration Guide, PN 00-02544, or MetroSet2’s help files.

One Beep

When the scanner successfully reads a bar code the unit will beep once and the white LED will flash once indicating data has been transmitted successfully. The blue LED will return to the low intensity state if no other objects are presented in the active scan area.

If the scanner does not beep once and the white light does not flash, then the bar code has not been successfully read.

Short Razzberry Tone

This tone is a failure indicator (see Failure Modes on page 17).

Long Razzberry Tone

This tone is a failure indicator (see Failure Modes on page 17).

Three Beeps – At Power Up

When the MS4980 first receives power, it will start an initialization sequence. The white and blue LEDs will alternately fade on and off for approximately three seconds. When the scanner has finished initializing the white LED will flash three times while simultaneously beeping three times to indicate the scanner is ready for use.

Three Beeps – Configuration Mode

When entering configuration mode, the white LED will flash while the scanner simultaneously beeps three times. The white and blue LEDs will continue to flash while in this mode. Upon exiting configuration mode, the scanner will beep three times, and the LEDs will stop flashing.

When configured, three beeps can also indicate a communications timeout during normal scanning mode.

When using single-code-configuring, the scanner will beep three times: a normal tone followed by a short pause, a high tone and then a low tone. This indicates that the single configuration bar code has successfully configured the scanner.

16

Visual Indicators

The scanner has blue and white LED indicators on either side of the button on the top of the unit. When the scanner is on, the intensity of the LED and the flashing or stationary activity of the LEDs, indicates the status of the current scan and the diagnostic scanner.

Figure 13.

No LEDs are Illuminated

The LEDs will not be illuminated if the scanner is not receiving power from the host or transformer.

Steady Low Intensity Blue

The scanner is in stand-by mode. Present a bar code to the scanner and the blue LED will switch to a high intensity blue when the IR detects the object.

Steady High Intensity Blue

The high intensity blue LED is illuminated when the scanner is active and attempting to decode a bar code.

Single White Flash

When the scanner successfully reads a bar code the unit will beep once and the white LED will flash once indicating data has been transmitted successfully. The blue LED will return to the low intensity state if no other objects are presented in the active scan area.

If the scanner does not beep once and the white light does not flash, then the bar code has not been successfully read.

Steady White

When the scanner successfully reads a bar code, it will beep once and the white LED will turn on indicating data is being transmitted.

Note: After a successful scan, the scanner transmits the data to the host device.

Some communication modes require that the host inform the scanner when data is ready to be received. If the host is not ready to accept the information, the scanner’s white LED will remain on until the data can be transmitted.

Alternating Flashing of Blue and White

This indicates the scanner is in configuration mode. A short razzberry tone indicates that an invalid bar code has been scanned while in this mode.

17

Failure Modes

Long Razzberry Tone – During Power Up

Failed to initialize or configure the scanner. If the scanner does not respond after reconfiguration, return the scanner for repair.

Short Razzberry Tone – During Scanning

An Invalid bar code has been scanned when in configuration mode.
