‹ The MS7580 requires 12V power to function for Keyboard Wedge operation.
Plugging the scanner into a port on the host system does not guarantee that
scanned information will be communicated properly to the host system.
The scanner is shipped from the factory configured with default settings.
Please refer to the MetroSelect Single-Line Configuration Guide
(
MLPN 00-02544) or MetroSet2’s help files for instructions on changing the
scanner’s configuration. In addition, please check that the scanner and host
system are using the same communication protocol.
