SCANNER TERMINATIONS  
IS4125-17 Connector Pin Assignments  
Metrologic provides a low profile ZIF 12-pin 
connector to connect to a 1 mm x 12 position 
FFC/FPC cable. The pin assignments are as follows: 
Pin Signal Name Function 
1 VCC 
Input.  5VDC (± 0.25V)  
This requires 25 mA in standby and 130 mA peak. 
2  Ground  Signal and power ground. 
3 Receive Input. Keyboard Wedge receive data from host. 
4* PC Data PCData 
5* PCClock PCClock 
6*  KB Clock  KB Clock 
7 Transmit Output. RS232 transmit data from the scan engine. 
8*  KB Data  KB Data 
9  Good Read  
Indicator 
Output. 5V high with a 2 kHz pulse. This drain is the pin 
of a PFET type transistor that can source approximately 
100 mA of current. This output is the connection for an 
LED or other indicator (i.e. beeper+).  It is recommended 
that the indicator is terminated directly to ground. 
10 Beeper - 
Input. Collector of an NPN transistor that can sink 
approximately 100 mA of current.  A current limiting pull-
up resistor and Piezo type transducer (QMB- 111PXN or 
equivalent) is recommended. 
11 Reserved Input 
Input. Do not connect to this pin, Metrologic internal use 
only. 
12 LED - 
Negative connection for scan mode indicator.  
An external pull-up and LED are suggested. Maximum 
current is limited to 25 mA.  This line is active low when 
the scanner is in the scanner mode (i.e. scan line is 
present). 
*  Pins 4, 5, 6 and 8 main function is to transmit scan codes between the 
Keyboard Wedge and PC.
