 1.  Turn off the host system.  
2.  Plug the male 10-pin RJ45 end of the 
MVC cable into the 10-pin socket on 
the scanner.  You will hear a ‘click’ 
when the connection is made. 
3.  Connect the other end of the MVC 
cable to the host device. 
4.  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.    
See caution on page 6.
