Introduction  
The MS6720 is the first laser bar code scanner truly to bridge the gap between  
omnidirectional fixed projection and hand-held scanners. It incorporates fixed  
projection performance and our patented 20-line scan pattern into a  
comfortable, ergonomic styling of our popular hand-helds. With this design,  
Metrologic has engineered a scanner that transcends any other on the market  
today.  
The MS6720 utilizes a unique, patented infrared sensor and control scheme  
for hands-free projection scanning and fatigue reduced hand-held operation.  
Whether operators choose to present small items to the scanner or transport  
the lightweight scanner to bulkier items, the compact size and comprehen-sive  
scan pattern make the MS6720 the perfect choice for many applica-tions.  
The superior performance and features the world has come to expect from  
Metrologic were packaged into the comfortable case only after tests and  
approvals by hands of all sizes. With 84 degrees rotation and 10 locking  
positions through 45 degrees of tilt, the stand for the MS6720 is also ergo-  
nomically and application friendly. Mounting was designed to provide an  
adequate distance for scanning between the scanner face and the counter top at  
all times. When fully tilted, the face of the unit remains a full five inches from  
the counter. In addition, the modular construction thoughtfully includes a  
removable wall mount cap.  
As with all Metrologic hand-held scanners, the MS6720 features both short-  
range and long-range activation, user-friendly programming, reliability and  
versatility. Operators are sure to appreciate the convenience and flexibility of  
the MS6720, offered at an unbeatable price.

Scanner Installation to the PC for the Scanner with Built-in  
PC Keyboard Wedge Interface  
To maintain compliance with applicable standards, all circuits connected to the  
scanner must meet the requirements for SELV (Safety Extra Low Voltage)  
according to EN 60950.  
1. The Y” coil cable is terminated with a 5-pin DIN female connector  
on one end, and a 6-pin mini DIN male on the other. Also included  
with the MS6720 is an adaptor cable with a 5-pin male DIN on one  
end and a 6-pin female mini DIN on the other to mate to a specific  
keyboard. According to the termination required, connect the appro-  
priate end of the adaptor cable to the coil cable, leaving the neces-  
sary termination exposed for connecting to the keyboard and the  
keyboard port on the PC. Refer to Appendix C page 36 for pin  
assignments.

Manufacturer’s Recommendation:  
Metrologic recommends the use of an external power supply with MS6720-47 Key-  
board Wedge applications. Powering the MS6720-47 directly from the computer  
keyboard connector could interfere with the operation of the scanner or the computer.  
Not all computers supply the same current through the keyboard port, this explains why  
a scanner would work on one computer and not another.

Scanner Parts  
Green and Red LED  
º
When the red LED is on, this indicates that the  
laser is on. When the green LED flashes on,  
the scanner has read a bar code successfully.  
When the green light turns off, communica-  
tion to the host is complete. The green LED  
blinks while the scanner is waking up from an  
IR sensor timeout. The LED’s are also used  
as diagnostic indicators and mode indicators.  
Refer to pages 10-12 for details.

Designed to provide an adequate  
distance for scanning between the  
scanner face and counter at all  
times. When fully tilted, the face  
of the scanner remains a full five  
inches from the counter. Refer to  
page 8 for available kits.  
Coil Cable  
This cable is terminated with a 10-pin modular connector, which attaches to  
the MCA951. The Keyboard Wedge unit has a “Y” coil cable terminated with  
a 5-pin female on one end, a 6-pin male and a 4-pin locking connector for  
power input (power jumper). An adaptor is included with a 5-pin male DIN  
on one end and a 6-pin female mini DIN on the other to mate to a specific

Audible Indicators  
When the MS6720 scanner is in operation, it provides audible feedback.  
These sounds indicate the status of the scan and scanner. Four settings are  
available for the tone of the beep. To change the tone, refer to the Program-  
ming Guide section: Beeper Tones.  
One Beep  
*
When the scanner first receives power, both LEDs come on  
together along with the beep-the green LED only flashes.  
After the scanner performs this startup sequence, the  
scanner is ready to scan.  
When the scanner successfully reads a bar code, the green light  
will flash and beep once (if programmed to do so). If the scanner  
does not beep once and the green light does not flash, then the  
bar code has not been successfully read.  
Razzberry Tone  
This tone is a failure indicator. Refer to failure modes page 11.  
Three Beeps - after power up  
* * *  
When entering the program mode, the green LED will flash  
while the scanner simultaneously beeps three times. The green  
LED will continue to flash until the unit exits program mode.  
Upon exiting program mode, the scanner will beep three times  
and the green LED will stop flashing. When configured, 3 beeps  
can also indicate a communications timeout during normal  
scanning mode.

Failure Modes  
Flashing Red and One Razzberry Tone  
This indicates the scanner has experienced a laser  
subsystem failure. Return the unit for repair at an  
authorized service center.  
Flashing Red and Green and Two Razzberry Tones  
This indicates the scanner has experienced a motor failure.  
Return the unit for repair at an authorized service center.  
Continuous Razzberry Tone with both LEDs off  
If, upon power up, the scanner emits a continuous razz-  
berry tone, then the scanner has an electronic failure.  
Return the unit for repair at an authorized service center.  
Three Beeps - on power up  
* * *  
If the scanner beeps 3 times on power up then, the non  
volatile memory which holds the scanner configuration has  
failed. Return the unit for repair at an authorized service  
center.

Visual Indicators  
There are a red LED and a green LED on the scanner. When the scanner is on, the  
flashing or stationary activity of the LEDs indicates the status of the scan and scan-ner.  
No Red or Green LED  
There are two reasons why the LEDs will not be illuminated:  
1.) If the scanner is receiving power and the LEDs are not on, then  
the scanner has been dormant for a specified time and the laser  
has turned off. To reactivate the unit, pass an object through  
the scan field.  
2.) If the scanner is not receiving power from the host or trans-  
former, then the LEDs will not be on.  
Steady Red  
When the laser is on, the red LED is also on. The red LED will  
remain on until the scanning period has expired.  
Steady Red and Single Green Flash  
When the scanner successfully reads a bar code, the green LED  
will flash then beep once. If the green LED does not flash or the  
scanner does not beep once, then the bar code has not been suc-  
cessfully read.  
Steady Red and Steady Green  
After a successful scan, the scanner transmits the data to the host  
device. If the host is not ready to accept the information, the scan-  
ner’s green LED will remain on until the data can be transmitted.  
The red LED will turn off when the scanning period expires.  
Steady Red and Flashing Green  
This indicates the scanner is in program mode. A razzberry tone  
indicates that an invalid bar code has been scanned in this mode.  
Steady Green  
This indicates the scanner may be waiting for communication from  
the host.  
Flashing Green  
This indicates the scanner is waking up from a dormant state in  
response to an IR sensor activation. Refer to page 18.

Scan Pattern Specifics  
Projection Axis  
The scan pattern of the MS6720 exits straight out of the scanner. This feature  
was purposefully designed to provide pointing efficiency in the  
hand held mode and instinctive positioning in the fixed presentation mode.  
Omnidirectional Scan Volume  
Note: The above scan volume shows omnidirectional volume. This volume does not reflect  
the entire length of all the laser lines. (Please refer to the Cross-Sectional Pattern in  
this section, page 20).

SYMPTOMS  
The unit powers up properly, lasers come on, but the unit does not scan and does not  
beep when a bar code is presented  
POSSIBLE CAUSE(S)/SOLUTION(S)  
Improper settings can be the cause for a scanner not to scan. The following would be  
typical examples:  
1. Scanning a particular symbology that is not enabled. (UPC/EAN, Code 39,  
Interleaved 2 of 5, Code 93, Code 128 and Codabar are enabled by default.)  
Verify that the type of bar code being read has been selected.  
2. The scanner has been programmed for a character length lock, or a  
minimum length and the bar code being scanned does not satisfy the  
programmed criteria. Verify that the bar code that is being scanned falls  
into the criteria. (Typical of Non-UPC/EAN codes.)  
3. The scanner scans a bar code but the scanner locks up (green LED comes  
on and stays on) after the first scan. The scanner is configured to support  
some form of host handshaking but is not receiving the signal. If the scanner  
is setup to support ACK/NAK, RTS/CTS, XON/XOFF or D/E, verify that the  
host cable and host are supporting the handshaking properly.  
4. The scanner scans and transmits but the data is not correct at the host.  
Verify that the scanner’s data format matches that required by the host.  
Make sure that the scanner is connected to the proper host port.  
SYMPTOMS  
Scanner beeps at some bar codes and NOT for others of the same bar code symbology  
POSSIBLE CAUSE(S)/SOLUTION(S)  
1. The print quality of the bar code is suspect.  
2. The aspect ratio of the bar code is out of tolerance.  
3. The bar code may have been printed incorrectly.  
(check digit/character/or border problem.)

SYMPTOMS  
POSSIBLE CAUSE(S)  
SOLUTION  
Power-up OK  
Scans OK  
Com port at the host not  
working or not configured  
properly  
Check to make sure the baud rate  
and parity of the scanner and the  
communication port match and the  
program is looking for “RS-232"  
data.

Cable not connected to the  
proper com port

properly to the  
host  
Com port not operating  
properly  
NOTE: Metrologic’s default of 7 data bits, space parity is usually what is expected when an IBM  
compatible type PC is configured for 8 data bits, no parity.  
SYMPTOMS  
SOLUTION  
Host receiving data but data does not  
look correct  
Check that the scanner and host are  
configured for the same interface format  
Characters are being dropped  
Add some intercharacter delay to the  
transmitted output. This can be programmed  
into the scanner through ScanSelect  
RS-232 Demonstration Program  
If an RS-232 scanner is not communicating with your IBM compatible PC, key in the  
following BASIC program to test that the communication port and scanner are working.  
This program is for demonstration purposes only. It is only intended to prove that cabling  
is correct, the comx port is working, and the scanner is working. If the bar code data  
displays on the screen while using this program, it only demon-strates that the hardware  
interface and scanner are working. At this point, investigate whether the application  
software and the scanner configuration match. If the applica-tion does not support RS-  
232 scanners, a software wedge program that will take RS-232 data and place it into a  
keyboard buffer may be needed. This program tells the PC to ignore RTS-CTS, Data Set  
Ready (DSR) and Data Carrier Detect (DCD) signals. If the demostration program works  
and yours still does not, jumper RTS to CTS and Data Terminal Reading (DTR) to DCD  
and DSR on the back of your PC.

Pin Assignments  
Cable Pin Assignments for the Coil Cable  
The MS6720 scanners are terminated to a 10 position shielded modular  
connector. All of the coil cables (MLPN 44530) for the MS6720 scanner are  
terminated the same. The difference between versions is the end of the cable  
going into the scanner. This connector plugs into different “J” positions on  
various computer/interface boards. Since each computer/interface board is  
different, the output signals are different.

Notices  
Notice  
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with limits for a Class A digital device,  
pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection  
against harmful interference when the equipment is operated in a commercial environment. This  
equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in  
accordance with the instruction manual, may cause harmful interference to radio communications.  
Operation of this equipment in a residential area is likely to cause harmful interference, in which  
case the user will be required to correct the interference at his own expense. Any unauthorized  
changes or modifications to this equipment could void the users authority to operate this device.  
Notice  
This digital apparatus does not exceed the Class A limits for radio noise emissions from digital  
apparatus set out in the Radio Interference Regulations of the Industry and Canada.  
Caution  
Use of controls or adjustments or performance of procedures other than those specified herein may  
result in hazardous laser light. Under no circumstances should the customer attempt to service the  
laser scanner. Never attempt to look at the laser beam, even if the scanner appears to be  
nonfunctional. Never open the scanner in an attempt to look into the device. Doing so could result  
in hazardous laser light exposure. The use of optical instruments with the laser equipment will  
increase eye hazard.  
Remarque  
Après contrôle de cet appareil, on a noté qu'il répondait aux valeurs limites de la classe A, c-  
onformément à la partie 15 des directives de l'administration fédérale américaine pour les t-  
élécommunications. Ces valeurs limites ont été prévues pour garantir une protection suffisante  
contre les effets nocifs dus à l'emploi de l'appareil dans un magasin. L'appareil génère et utilise une  
énergie haute fréquence et peut, s'il n'est pas installé et utilisé conformément aux instructions  
mentionnées dans le guide d'utilisation, entraîner des perturbations dans la radiocommunications.  
L'utilisation de cet appareil dans une zone d'habitation entraînera très vraisemblablement des  
perturbations. Dans ce cas, l'utilisateur est tenu de remédier à ces perturbations à ses propres frais.  
Toute modification ou remplacement non autorisé sur cet appareil peut entraîner l'invalidité de  
l'autorisation d'utilisation de l'appareil.  
Remarque  
Cet appareil numérique ne va pas contre les valeurs limites pour émissions de bruits radios des  
appareils numérique de la classe A, conformément aux directives relatives aux perturbations des  
radiocommunications du ministère canadien pour l'industrie.  
Attention  
L'emploi de commandes, réglages ou procédés autres que ceux décrits ici peut entraîner de graves  
irradiations. Le client ne doit en aucun cas essayer d'entretenir lui-même le scanner ou le laser. Ne  
regardez jamais directement le rayon laser, même si vous croyez que le scanner est inactif.  
N'ouvrez jamais le scanner pour regarder dans l'appareil. Ce faisant, vous vous exposez à une  
rayonnement laser mortel. L'emploi d'appareils optiques avec cet équipement laser augmente le  
risque d'endommagement de la vision.

Anmerkung  
Nach Überprüfung dieses Geräts wurde festgestellt, daß es den Grenzwerten für Digitalgeräte der  
Klasse A gemäß Teil 15 der Richtlinien der US-amerikanischen Bundesbehörde für das  
Fernmeldewesen entspricht. Diese Grenzwerte wurden festgelegt, um einen angemessenen Schutz  
gegen schädliche Auswirkungen bei Einsatz des Geräts in einer Ladenumgebung zu gewähren.  
Das Gerät erzeugt und verwendet Hochfrequenzenergie und kann diese ausstrahlen, und kann,  
falls es nicht gemäß den im Bedienerhandbuch enthaltenen Anweisungen installiert und verwendet  
wird, zu einer Störung des Funkverkehrs führen. Der Betrieb dieses Geräts in einem Wohngebiet  
führt höchstwahrscheinlich zu Störungen. In diesem Fall ist der Bediener verpflichtet, die Störung  
auf eigene Kosten zu beseitigen. Durch jegliche unerlaubte Auswechselung oder Änderung an  
diesem Gerät könnte die Genehmigung des Bedieners zur Verwendung dieses Geräts ungültig  
werden.  
Anmerkung  
Dieses Digitalgerät verstößt nicht gegen die Grenzwerte für Funkrauschemissionen von  
Digitalgeräten der Klasse A gemäß den Richtlinien für Funkstörungen des kanadischen  
Ministeriums für Industrie.  
Achtung  
Die Verwendung anderer als der hierin beschriebenen Steuerungen, Einstellungen oder Verfahren  
kann eine lebensgefährliche Laserstrahlung hervorrufen. Der Kunde sollte unter keinen  
Umständen versuchen, den Laser-Scanner selbst zu warten. Sehen Sie niemals in den Laserstrahl,  
selbst wenn Sie glauben, daß der Scanner nicht aktiv ist. Öffnen Sie niemals den Scanner, um in  
das Gerät hineinzusehen. Wenn Sie dies tun, können Sie sich einer lebensgefährlichen  
Laserstrahlung aussetzen. Der Einsatz optischer Geräte mit dieser Laserausrüstung erhöht das  
Risiko einer Sehschädigung.  
N.B.  
Dal controllo di questo apparecchio risulta che esso risponde ai valori limite per apparecchi  
digitali della classe A conf. parte 15 delle direttive sulle telecomunicazioni dell’Autorità federale  
statunitense. Questi valori limite sono stati fissati per garantire una protezione adeguata contro gli  
effetti nocivi se questo apparecchio viene usato all’intero di un negozio. L’apparecchio genera,  
utilizza e può emettere energia ad alta frequenza e, se non viene installato ed utilizzato  
conformemente alle indicazioni fornite nel Manuale utente, può provocare disturbi al servizio  
radiofonico. L’uso di questo apparecchio in zone residenziali causa molto probabilmente dei  
disturbi. In questo caso l’utente è obbligato ad eliminare questi disturbi a sue spese. Qualsiasi  
sostituzione o modifica non autorizzata all’apparecchio potrebbe rendere invalida l’autorizzazione  
dell’utente all’uso dell’apparecchio.  
N.B.  
Questo apparecchio digitale non supera I valori limite per l’emissione di radiorumori da parte di  
apparecchi digitali della classe A conformemente alle direttive per radiodisturbi del Ministero  
canadese per l’Industria.  
Attenzione  
L’utilizzo di sistemi di controllo, di regolazioni o di procedimenti diversi da quelli decritti nel  
presente Manuale può provocare dei raggi laser pericolosi per la vita. Il cliente non deve  
assolutamente tentare di riparare egli stesso lo scanner laser. Non guardate mai nel raggio laser,  
anche se credete che lo scanner non sia attivo. Non aprite mai lo scanner per guardare dentro  
l’apparecchio. Se tuttavia lo fate, potete esporVi a dei raggi laser pericolosi per la vita. L’uso di  
apparecchi ottici con questo equipaggiamento laser aumenta il rischio di danni alla vista.
