Scanner Installation: Powered by Host Device
The MS7100 scanner interfaces terminate to a 10-pin modular jack. Connect
the 10-pin modular plug of the PowerLink cable into the jack then connect the
other end of the PowerLink cable to the host. Refer to Appendix C page 33 for
pin assignments.
1. Turn off the host system.
2. Make the necessary PowerLink cable connections to the scanner and the
host.
3. Turn on the host system.
NOTE:
a.When the scanner first receives power, the red LED will turn
on. Then the scanner will beep once and the green LED will
flash simultaneously.
b.Plugging the scanner into the serial port of the PC does not
guarantee that scanned information will appear at the PC. A
software driver and correct configuration setting are also
required for proper communication to occur.
