) for additional information on Power Save
2. The Laser Off Power Save Mode turns the laser OFF after a configured period of non-use. The motor continues to spin allowing for a faster “wake” up time.
If the button is pressed, the scanner will “wake” from the power save mode.
3. The Laser & Motor Off Power Save Mode turns the laser and motor OFF after a configured period of non-use.
If the button is pressed, the scanner will “wake” from the power save mode. This mode’s “wake” time is slightly longer due to the motor’s need to restart.
4. The Dual Action Power Save Mode #1 (default mode) “blinks” the laser OFF & ON after a configured period of non-use. The laser and motor will then turn OFF at the next thirty-minute interval.
Example:
If the power save timeout is set to 15 minutes.
If the button is pressed the scanner will “wake” from the power save mode.
5. The Dual Action Power Save Mode #2 turns the laser OFF after a configured period of non-use. The motor will then turn OFF at the next thirty-minute interval.
Example:
If the power save timeout is set to 15 minutes.
If the button is pressed the scanner will “wake” from the power save mode.

SCANNER OPERATION
Audible Indicators
When the MS7180 is in operation, it provides audible feedback to indicate the status of the scanner. Eight settings are available for the tone of the beep (normal, 6 alternate tones and no tone). For instructions on how to change the tone of the beeper, refer to the MetroSelect Configuration Guide (00-02407).
One Beep When the scanner first receives power the blue and white LED will toggle on
and off. The scanner will beep once, then the LEDs will stop toggling and the blue LED will remain on to indicate the scanner is ready to scan.
When the scanner successfully reads a bar code, the white LED will flash and the scanner will emit a beep*. If the scanner does not beep once and the white light does not flash, then the bar code has not been successfully read.
Razzberry Tone
This is a failure indicator. Refer to Failure Mode Indicators on page 19.
When in configuration mode, a razzberry tone indicates that an invalid bar code has been scanned.
Three Beeps - During Operation When entering configuration mode
white and blue LED will start to toggle on and off. The blue LED and the white LED will toggle on and off until the scanner exits the configuration mode.
Upon exiting configuration mode†, the white LED will flash three times and the scanner will beep three times. The blue LED will then stay on indicating the scanner is ready to scan.
When using one-code-configuring, the scanner will emit a unique beep three times after scanning. This indicates that the single configuration bar code has successfully configured the scanner.
Three beeps* can also indicate a communications timeout during normal scanning mode.
Three Beeps - On Power Up This is a failure indicator. Refer to Failure Mode Indicators on page 19.

No LEDs
The LEDs will not be illuminated if the scanner is not receiving power from the host or transformer.
Steady Blue
When the laser is active, the blue LED is illuminated. The blue LED will remain on until the laser is deactivated.
During the power save mode, the laser will turn on and off. During this period, the blue LED will remain on.
Steady Blue and Single White Flash
When the scanner successfully reads a bar code, the white LED will flash and the scanner will beep once. If the white LED does not flash or the scanner does not beep once, then the bar code has not been successfully read.
Steady White and Blue
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 (Toggling) Blue and White
This indicates the scanner is in configuration mode. A razzberry tone indicates that an invalid bar code has been scanned in this mode.

UPGRADING THE FLASH ROM FIRMWARE

The MetroSet2 program is a functional component of Metrologic’s new line of Flash-based scanners. This program allows the user of a Metrologic scanner to quickly upgrade to a new or custom version of firmware. It requires the use of a personal computer running Windows 95 or greater and the use of a serial port. The user merely connects the scanner to a serial port on the PC, launches the MetroSet2 program, and blasts off to new software upgrades.
Each MS7180, regardless of the communication protocol, can be upgraded. All RS232 (-41), keyboard wedge (-47), light pen (-41), IBM (106), low speed USB (-38), and full speed USB (-106), units can be upgraded. To upgrade all units, a power supply and a PowerLink cable (
RS232 units can be upgraded using the standard PowerLink cable (
MLPN 54-54000x-3).
The program guides the user with its simplistic one click approach. The user must first select the file. Once the file is selected and verified, the scanner is ready to be upgraded. Press the “Flash Scanner” button to upgrade the scanner. The unit will go into a “flash mode”. The user can follow the progress of the upgrade by watching the screen for details. When the upgrade is complete, the scanner will respond with its normal one beep on power up. If the scanner did not upgrade properly there will be an error message in MetroSet. Contact a Metrologic service representative for additional assistance.
MLPN 54-54014) are required.
