1. Turn off the host system.

2. Connect the 10-pin RJ45 male

connector into the jack on the
scanner. There will be an audible
click when the connector lock
engages.

If the scanner is receiving
power from the host system,
skip to step #5.

3. Connect the L-shaped plug of the

power supply into the power jack
on the PowerLink cable.

4. Verify the AC input requirements of

the power supply match the AC
outlet. Connect the power supply
into an AC outlet. The outlet should
be near the equipment and easily
accessible.

5. Connect the PowerLink cable to

the proper port on the host system.

6. Turn on the host system.

Plugging the scanner into a port on the host system does not guarantee
that scanned information will be communicated properly to the host
system. Please refer to the MetroSelect Single-Line Configuration
Guide or MetroSet2’s help files for instructions on changing the
scanner’s factory default configuration. The scanner and host system
must use the same communication protocols.

All MS95

x0-00 scanners leave the factory with the Laser Emulation

Mode enabled. If you recall defaults while re-configuring your scanner
the Laser Emulation Mode will no longer be enabled. Refer to the
MS95

x

0-00 Laser Emulation Mode section of the MetroSelect Single-

Line Configuration Guide for information on enabling the Laser
Emulation Mode.
