USB is the default communication protocol for an MS9590-106 and the
MS9591-106. If the recall defaults bar code is scanned after the unit
has been configured for RS485, the scanner will revert to the USB
default communication protocol. The bar code above will need to be
rescanned to return the unit to the RS485 communication protocol.
The scanner is shipped from the factory configured to set of default
conditions. Plugging the scanner into a port on the host system does
not guarantee that the scanned information will be communicated
properly to the host device. The scanner and host device must use the
same communication protocol. Please refer to the MetroSelect Single-
Line Configuration Guide or the help files provided with MetroSet2 for
instructions on changing the scanner’s factory default configuration.
See caution on page 6.
