Introduction  
The MS700i Series Scanners are high throughput projection scanners that  
incorporate the latest in VLD (Visible Laser Diode) ASIC/VLSI and surface  
mount technologies. Each scanner consumes only 8 watts of power and can  
directly connect to many host systems that can support a scanning device. One  
thoughtful feature is a “sleep mode” that turns the laser and motor off when not  
in use. Other features include easy-to-see LED indicators that can be viewed  
from the top or front and a volume control card that can be scanned to control  
volume levels. There are two programming methods: through the  
ScanSelect™ programming guide or through ScanSet™ (an IBM PC  
compatible software program.)  
With a scan speed of 2,000 lines per second, these scanners aggressively scan  
poorly printed bar codes and read torn and bent UPC, EAN and JAN bar  
codes immediately on the first pass at any roll angle. For close scanning, the  
MS700i and MS715i’s depth of field of 0.0mm - 178mm (0" - 7") is ideal. To  
accommodate applications where scanning items farther away from the scan  
window is preferred, the MS720i’s depth of field of 178mm - 381mm (7" -  
15") is ideal.

Scanner Connections to the Host  
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. To avoid potential problems, do not power up the  
scanner until the communication cable is secured to the host.  
1. Turn off the host system.  
2. Connect the 25-pin D-type connector on the scanner’s head cable to the  
communication cable. Connect the other end of the communication  
cable to the host device. (If the scanner will not receive power from a  
transformer, skip to Step 5.)  
3. If the scanner will receive power from an external power source, check  
the AC input requirements of the transformer to make sure the voltage  
matches the AC outlet. (A socket-outlet can be installed near the  
equipment so it will be easily accessible.)  
4. Plug the transformer into the side of the female D-type connector  
located on the communication cable. Plug the transformer into the AC  
outlet to supply power to the scanner.  
5. Power up the host system.  
Note: When the scanner first receives power, the LEDs will flash and  
then the scanner will beep once. After the scanner performs this  
startup sequence, the green LED will remain on for a specified  
time indicating that the laser is on.

Configuration of the Scanner to the Host System  
The scanner is shipped from the factory programmed to a set of default  
conditions. These default conditions are in the Default Settings section of this  
guide pages 36-41 and in the ScanSelect™ Scanner Programming Guide. The  
default settings in the ScanSelect guide have an asterisk that appears before  
the brief definition next to the bar code.  
For the scanner to properly communicate with the host system, it needs to be  
programmed to meet the specific scanning needs. Since each host system is  
unique, configure the scanner to match the host system requirements.  
Configure the scanner by entering program mode and scanning the appropriate  
bar codes that appear in the ScanSelect Scanner Programming Guide. (When  
using ScanSet™, refer to the ScanSet documentation for information on how  
to configure the scanner.)  
1. Connect the scanner to the host system (Refer to the Scanner  
Connections to the Host section in this guide).  
2. Enter program mode by scanning the ENTER/EXIT program mode bar  
code as the first bar code after a power up cycle. (The unit will beep  
three times)  
3. Scan the appropriate bar code(s) that appear in the ScanSelect Scanner  
Programming Guide. (Reveal only one bar code to the scanner each  
time. With your hand, cover the bar code that is not to be scanned.)  
4. Exit program mode by scanning the ENTER/EXIT program mode bar  
code again. (The new options will be saved and the scanner is ready for  
normal operation.)  
Note: Non-RS-232 interfaces chosen in Section B of the ScanSelect  
Programming Guide do not match the default settings loaded when  
the same interface is selected with ScanSet.

Cloning Feature  
To program several scanners with the same settings, use the Cloning feature.  
This is done by connecting the cloning cable (MLPN: #51544) between two  
scanners.  
1. Turn off both scanners.  
2. Connect the cloning cable between the two scanners.  
3. Turn both scanners on by plugging in the transformers.  
4. Once each scanner is ready, scan the cloning bar code with the scanner  
that has the settings that need to be transferred to the other scanner.

Version 11 IBM 46XX Scanner  
Output Format:  
IBM RS-485 serial input/output for the 4680 and 4690  
(46XX) point-of-sale terminals  
The Version 11 46XX interface can be used in several different ways. Both the  
46XX terminal and the scanner must be configured to match each other.  
Warning: Power to the scanner and 46XX terminal should be turned off  
before making physical connection.  
The 4680 and 4690 series terminals have different types of physical ports for  
connecting bar code scanners. Scanner ports include Port 5B, Port 17, and  
Port 9? (? = A, B, C, or E). A Port 9 type connector is present on all versions  
of the 46XX families of terminals. That is one reason it is the normal point of  
connection for Metrologic scanners. Another reason is that there is enough 12  
volt power available to operate many Metrologic scanners. If the terminal  
configuration requires use of a different physical port for connecting bar code  
scanners, contact Metrologic to get particular adaptor cable information.  
No matter what port is in use for the physical connection, all devices use a  
common communications bus inside the 46XX terminal. Each device uses a  
different address when it must communicate. The terminal must be configured  
to look for a device at a logical address.  
The IBM 1520 mode/address was selected as a default because it was the first  
IBM 46XX family scanner to support UPC/EAN, Code 39 and Interleaved 2  
of 5. The Version 11 scanner formats Codabar, Code 128, and Code 93 using  
the Code 39 function code designation supported by the IBM device driver for  
this scanner type. Other emulation modes currently available are the IBM  
3687-2 Port 17 fixed scanner and the Port 9B IBM 4500 CCD hand-held bar  
code reader. One of these other emulation modes may be needed depending on  
which operating system (4680.OS, 4690.OS, POS/DOS or DOS/RIPPS) is in  
use at the site.  
Note: The IBM 4683 and IBM 4684 terminals have a good proven track  
record of supplying power to Metrologic scanners. The IBM 4693  
and IBM 4694 terminals may be restricted from supplying power to  
certain scanner models. Specifically, Metrologic currently  
recommends using an external power supply for the scanner when  
connecting to an IBM 4694. Metrologic has no recommendations at  
this time for IBM 4693 terminals.

Configuring the Scanner  
Located in the Version 11 scanner are two computer boards. One board is for  
decoding and the other for 46XX IO processing. The decode board is  
configured using ScanSet™ or ScanSelect™ while the IO board is configured  
with an internal DIP Switch bank.  
For UPC/EAN scanning, the decode board should be set as follows:  
Enable IBM 4680 Communication  
Enable UPC/EAN  
Beep after Transmit  
Enable Communication Timeouts  
Transmit UPC-A Check Digit  
Transmit UPC-E Check Digit  
These settings configure the decode board to beep after transmitting the data to  
the terminal device driver. If the data does not clear the communications buffer  
within two seconds, it is discarded without giving the operator a good scan  
indication. This accommodates newer versions of the IBM device drivers that  
enable/disable scanning in many different situations.  
The default setting of the interface board is to emulate the IBM 1520 hand  
scanner that supports UPC/EAN and alphanumeric code types. The following  
is a list of switch settings for the internal interface board that handles the  
46XX SIOC communications.  
There are eight DIP switches on the board that are both software and hardware  
switches.

Configuring the IBM 46XX  
The 4683 and 4693 terminals are configured on the store controller. The 4684  
and 4694 terminals are typically configured on the individual terminals.  
Follow the appropriate guide for the type of equipment.  
IBM 4683 and 4693 Terminals Driven by a 46XX Store Controller  
Running 4680.OS or 4690.OS  
Access the terminal configuration menu on the store controller. If not already  
selected, select an IBM 1520 laser hand scanner (4680.OS Port 5B), an IBM  
4500 hand-held bar code reader (CCD, 4680.OS Port 9B), or an IBM 3687-2  
fixed scanner (4680.OS Port 17) that matches the configuration of the scanner.  
Regarding the 4690.OS, at the time of this printing, Metrologic does not know  
exactly which terminal port configuration screen is used for selecting scanners.  
It should be listed under the Port 9A, 9B, 9C, or 9E sections. The 4693  
terminal has a Port 5B that was originally used for the IBM 1520 scanner.  
While IBM has withdrawn this product, it was not clear how terminal  
configuration and device driver support would be provided for the installed  
base of users.  
Save the configuration and activate it for the desired terminals. Download the  
configuration to the terminal(s) per standard procedures.  
IBM 4684 and 4694 Systems  
Initialize the RIPPS drivers for a hand scanner if hand scanner emulation was  
selected. Initialize the RIPPS drivers for a "POS scanner" if the 3687-2  
scanner has been selected.

Scanner Installation to a PC Keyboard Port  
The MS700i/MS715i/MS720i/ scanner (version 17) provides keyboard  
emulation by converting the scanned bar code data to the PC keyboard scan  
code equivalent. The following are the supported keyboard and country types:  
PC Type  
!
!
!
AT (includes IBM® PS/2 and compatible models 50, 55, 60, 80)

The communication cable kit (MLPN: 45927) has a communication cable  
with one (1) 5 Pos female DIN connector and one (1) 6 Pos male mini DIN  
connector. The kit also includes an adaptor cable. This cable allows the  
scanner to plug into an IBM® PC XT or AT compatible computer or a PS/2  
computer and keyboard.  
With the appropriate communication cable, the scanner will also provide RS-  
232 or light pen emulation interface. When configuring the scanner for one  
interface versus another, change all necessary parameters for that particular  
interface. For instance, to configure the scanner for keyboard wedge emulation,  
recall defaults, select the PC type, keyboard country type and intercharacter  
delay. For further information, refer to the ScanSelect™ Scanner Programming  
Guide or ScanSet™ Scanner Configuration Guide.

PC Application Note:  
For most applications, it will be desirable to disable linefeed transmission. For  
non-USA keyboards, 10 mesc is probably the best intercharacter delay.  
Network system installations, may require tuning of the intercharacter and  
inter scan code options.  
Note:  
Once the scanner connects to the PC, the PC can be turned on and will operate  
normally even if the scanner's transformer plug is not in. How-  
ever, bar codes will not be read until the scanner receives power. When  
the scanner first receives power, the LEDs will flash and then the scanner  
will beep once. After the scanner performs this startup sequence, the  
green LED will remain on for a specified time indicating the laser is on.

Attaching the Scanner to the Stand  
Once the stand is securely mounted to the work surface, attach the scanner.  
The scanner has a “foot” that is at the bottom of the scanner. This foot fits into  
the “shoe” attached to the top of the stand. This construction helps prevent the  
scanner from being knocked from the stand.  
1. To prevent obstruction when sliding the scanner into place, loosen the  
small screw (A) located in the center of the long part of the shoe with a  
3/32" hex key wrench. (Refer to Figure 3)  
2. Align the foot of the scanner with the shoe of the stand and slide the  
scanner into position.  
3. Tighten the small screw (A) located at the center of the long part of the  
shoe. This screw holds the scanner in place.  
Note: Fasten the stand to the work surface before adjusting the angle of  
the flexible shaft. To adjust the angle, firmly hold the shaft and  
push the shaft to a north, south, east, or west direction.

Speaker  
The sound of a beep emits from here when the  
scanner performs a good read of a bar code.  
Green and Red LEDs  
When the green LED is on, this indicates that  
the unit is receiving power and the laser is on.  
When the red LED flashes on, the scanner has  
read a bar code successfully. When the red  
light turns off, communication to the host is  
complete.

InfraRed Object  
Sensor  
When a specified time has elapsed  
without any scanning, the unit will enter a  
“standby” mode. The scanner will not return  
to scanning until an object or a wave your  
hand is passed in front of the IR sensor.

Visual Indicators  
There is a red LED and a green LED located on the scanner. When the scanner is on,  
the flashing or stationary activity of the LEDs alert you to the status of the scan and  
scanner.  
No Red or Green LED  
There are two reasons why the LEDs will not be illuminated. First, if the scanner is  
receiving power and the LEDs are not on, then the scanner has remained dormant for a  
specified period of time and the laser has turned off. To reactivate the unit, wave an  
object in front of the IR sensor. Secondly, if the scanner is not receiving power from the  
host or transformer, then the LEDs will not turn on.  
Steady Green  
When the laser is on, the green LED is also on. This occurs when an object is in the  
scan field. The green LED will remain on until the IR time-out has elapsed or until the  
scanner is turned off.  
Steady Green; Red Flash  
When the scanner successfully reads a bar code, the red LED will flash followed by one  
beep. If you do not see the red LED flash or the scanner beep once, then the bar code  
has not been successfully read.  
Steady Red and Green  
After a successful scan, the scanner transmits the data to the host device. When the host  
is not ready to accept the information, the scanner’s red LED will remain on until the  
data can be transmitted.  
Alternating Red and Green  
This indicates the scanner is in program mode.  
Steady Red  
This indicates the scanner is in ScanSet mode.  
Flashing Red  
This indicates the scanner has experienced a laser subsystem failure. Return the unit for  
repair at an authorized service center.

Signaux optiques  
Sur la partie supérieure du scanner se trouvent une diode LED rouge et une diode LED  
verte. Quand le scanner est sous tension, les diodes rouge et verte clignotantes ou  
allumées vous informent sur l'état du scanner.  
Ni la diode rouge, ni la diode verte n'est allumée  
Il existe deux raisons possibles pour que les diodes ne s'allument pas. Premièrement: si  
le scanner reçoit de l'énergie sans que les diodes ne s'allument, le scanner est resté sans  
servir pendant une certaine période et le laser est désactivé. Pour le réactiver, passer un  
objet devant le palpeur infrarouge. Deuxièmement: quand le scanner ne reçoit de  
l'énergie ni de l'ordinateur central, ni du transformateur, les diodes restent éteintes.  
La diode verte reste allumée  
Quand le laser est en service, la diode verte s'allume également. C'est le cas quand un  
objet se trouve devant le palpeur. La diode verte reste allumée tant que la temporisation  
de l'infrarouge dure ou jusqu'à ce que le scanner soit désactivé.  
La diode verte reste allumée; la diode rouge clignote  
Après lecture avec succès d'un code à barres par le scanner, la diode rouge se met à  
clignoter, suivie d'un bip sonore unique. Si la diode rouge ne clignote pas ou quand  
aucun bip sonore n'est émis, cela signifie que le code à barres n'a pas pu être lu avec  
succès.  
Les diodes rouges et vertes restent allumées  
Une fois la lecture effectuée avec succès, le scanner transmet les données à l'ordinateur  
central. Si ce dernier n'est pas prêt à recevoir les données, la diode rouge du scanner  
reste allumée jusqu'à ce que les données puissent être transmises.  
Les diodes rouges et vertes clignotent en alternance  
Indique que le scanner se trouve en mode de programmation.  
La diode rouge reste allumée  
Indique que le scanner se trouve en mode ScanSet.  
Diode rouge clignotante  
Indique une panne de laser pendant la lecture. Veuillez envoyer votre appareil chez un  
concessionnaire pour réparation.

Optische Anzeigen  
Auf dem Scanner befinden sich eine rote und eine grüne Leuchtdiode. Bei  
eingeschaltetem Scanner geben Ihnen die blinkenden bzw. feststehenden  
Leuchtdiodenanzeigen Aufschluß über den Abtast- und Scannerstatus.  
Weder rote noch grüne Leuchtdiodenanzeige  
Es gibt zwei mögliche Gründe, weshalb die Leuchtdiodenanzeigen nicht aufleuchten.  
Erstens: Wenn der Scanner mit Energie versorgt wird und die Leuchtdiodenanzeigen  
nicht aufleuchten, so ist der Scanner für einen bestimmten Zeitraum untätig geblieben,  
und der Laser ist abgeschaltet. Zur Reaktivierung der Einheit sollten Sie ein Objekt vor  
dem Infrarot-Sensor hin- und herbewegen. Zweitens: Wenn der Scanner weder vom  
Hostrechner noch vom Transformator Energie erhält, so leuchten die  
Leuchtdiodenanzeigen nicht auf.  
Feststehende grüne Anzeige  
Wenn der Laser in Betrieb ist, leuchtet die grüne Leuchtdiodenanzeige ebenfalls auf.  
Dies ist dann der Fall, wenn sich ein Objekt im Abtastfeld befindet. Die grüne  
Leuchtdiodenanzeige leuchtet solange auf, bis das Infrarot-Timeout abgelaufen ist, oder  
bis der Scanner abgeschaltet wird.  
Feststehende grüne Leuchtanzeige; rote Blinkanzeige  
Nach erfolgreichem Lesen eines Barcodes durch den Scanner blinkt die rote  
Leuchtdiodenanzeige auf, gefolgt von einem einmaligen Piep-Signal. Blinkt die rote  
Leuchtdiodenanzeige nicht auf oder sendet der Scanner kein Piep-Signal aus, so konnte  
der Barcode nicht erfolgreich gelesen werden.  
Feststehende rote und grüne Leuchtanzeige  
Nach erfolgreichem Abtasten überträgt der Scanner die Daten an das Hostgerät. Falls  
das Hostgerät zur Datenannahme nicht bereit ist, leuchtet die rote Leuchtdiodenanzeige  
des Scanners solange auf, bis die Daten übertragen werden können.  
Alternierende rote und grüne Leuchtanzeige  
Zeigt an, daß sich der Scanner im Programmiermodus befindet.  
Feststehende rote Leuchtanzeige  
Zeigt an, daß sich der Scanner im ScanSet-Modus befindet.  
Aufblinkende rote Leuchtanzeige  
Zeigt an, daß beim Scanner ein Laserausfall vorliegt. Bringen Sie das Gerät zur Reparatur in ein  
Vertragsservicecenter.

Segnali ottici  
Sullo scanner si trovano due diodi luminosi: uno rosso e uno verde. Quando lo scanner  
è inserito, i diodi luminosi, che possono o essere accesi in continuazione o lampeggiare,  
Vi informano sullo stato della scansione e dell’apparecchio.  
Né il diodo luminoso rosso né quello verde sono accesi  
Vi sono due possibili cause se i diodi luminosi non sono accesi. Prima causa: se lo  
scanner viene alimentato e i diodi luminosi non sono accesi, lo scanner è rimasto  
disattivato per un determinato periodo e il laser è spento. Per riattivare l’unità dovreste  
muovere un oggetto davanti al sensore a infrarossi. Seconda causa: se lo scanner non  
viene alimentato né dal calcolatore host né dal trasformatore, i due diodi luminosi non  
sono accesi.  
Il diodo luminoso verde è acceso  
Quando il laser è inserito, è acceso anche il diodo luminoso verde. Questo si ha quando  
un oggetto si trova nella zona di scansione. Il diodo luminoso verde è acceso fino al r-  
aggiungimento del timeout infrarossi oppure fino allo spegnimento dello scanner.  
Il diodo luminoso verde è acceso; quello rosso lampeggia  
Dopo la lettura riuscita di un codice a barre da parte dello scanner il diodo luminoso  
rosso lampeggia e quindi viene emesso un unico segnale beep. Se il diodo luminoso  
rosso non lampeggia oppure lo scanner non emette un segnale beep, ciò significa che la  
lettura del codice a barre non è riuscita.  
Sono accesi sia il diodo luminoso rosso che quello verde  
Dopo la scansione riuscita lo scanner trasmette i dati all’host. Se l’host non è pronto per  
accettare i dati, il diodo luminoso rosso dello scanner è acceso fino a che i dati possono  
essere trasmessi.  
Il diodo luminoso rosso e quello verde sono accesi in alternanza  
Ciò indica che lo scanner si trova nella modalità di programmazione.  
Il diodo luminoso rosso è acceso  
Ciò indica che lo scanner si trova nella modalità ScanSet.  
Il diodo luminoso rosso lampeggia  
Ciò indica che lo scanner ha un guasto a livello del laser. Fate riparare l’apparecchio da  
un centro di assistenza autorizzato.

There are four volume settings available: low, medium, high and no volume.  
The operator can temporarily change the volume of the scanner by scanning  
the bar codes on the volume control card. To permanently change the volume  
of the scanner, enter program mode and scan the appropriate volume setting  
bar code in Section C of the ScanSelect Programming Guide or use ScanSet.  
Note: A copy of the volume control card is at the end of this guide.

Labels  
There is one label located inside the window of each scanner noting that the  
device is a CDRH Class IIa laser product and IEC 825 LASERKLASSE 1.  
Also on each scanner is a label located on the back of the unit. This label  
contains information such as the model number, date of manufacture, serial  
number, and approvals. The following are samples of these labels:

InfraRed (IR) Object Sensor  
An infrared (IR) device located below the LEDs and above the scanner output  
window (refer to the section, MS700i and MS720i Features page 14) initiates  
the scanning process. As long as power is applied to the unit, the IR sensor  
projects a signal that extends approximately seven (7) inches beyond the  
output window. When the scanner’s computer is on “standby," passing an  
object in front of this sensor device will “wake up” the scanner and activate the  
laser. The scanner will enter “standby” when it remains dormant for a time.  
When the green LED comes on, the scanner is powering up for full operation.  
After approximately three seconds, the scanner will be ready to operate.  
The default IR timeout is ten minutes. However, this can be changed through  
ScanSet or by scanning a bar code in Section C of the ScanSelect  
Programming Guide. The available times are two minutes, thirty minutes or no  
timeouts.

Active Scan Region for the MS700i and MS715i Scanner  
The active scan region is the region within the depth of field of the five scan  
segments in which the laser beam can intercept and read symbols oriented as  
shown in the section Symbol Orientation page 22. Planes formed by each of  
the five scan segments define the bottom of the region. The 178mm (7.0")  
depth of field of each of the scan segments bound the top. Best first pass read  
will be observed for symbols that pass through the optimal scan area along a  
1½ inch wide track centered in the defined region shown in Figure 6. Optimal  
scan area range is 18mm - 160mm (.7" - 6.3").

Active Scan Region for the MS720i Scanner  
The active scan region is the region within the depth of field of the five scan  
segments in which the laser beam can intercept and read symbols. The bottom  
of the region is 7" from the scanner window. Planes formed by each of the five  
scan segments define the sides. The 203mm (8.0") depth of field of each of the  
scan segments bound the top. Best first pass read will be observed for symbols  
that pass through the optimal scan area along a 2½ inch wide track centered in  
the defined region shown in Figure 7. Optimal scan area range is  
203mm - 356mm (8" - 14").

Depth of Field for the MS700i and MS715i Scanner  
Through the glass at the front of the scanner, safe, low powered laser beams  
are projected in a complex pattern that resembles a spider web. Each of the  
five scan fields that generate the scan pattern extends to a range of 178mm  
(7.0"). The range begins from the face of the scanner window and extends  
from the unit for a distance of 178mm (7.0") measured along the scanning  
beam at the center of each scan segment. This 0.0mm - 178mm (0" - 7") range  
is the depth of field for the MS700i and MS715i scanner (refer to Figure 10).  
This area of active scanning projects out from the glass on the face of the  
scanner to about 7 inches.  
The scan pattern is projected at a slight angle downward from the front of the  
scanner (approximately 10 degrees, overall). As the scan fields move outward,  
they expand. Like an image expands from a film projector as it moves toward  
the screen at a movie theater, the scan pattern projects out to a well-defined  
region. Any label that is facing toward the scanner can be read at any point  
within the scanning field.

Depth of Field for the MS720i Scanner  
Through the glass at the front of the scanner, safe, low powered laser beams  
are projected in a complex pattern that resembles a spider web. Each of the  
five scan fields that generate the scan pattern extends to a range of 178mm  
(7.0"). The range begins 178mm (7.0") from the face of the scanner window

scanning beam at the center of each scan segment. This 178mm - 381mm  
(7" - 15") range is the depth of field for the MS720i scanner. (Refer to Figure

Version “17” Pin Assignments for Keyboard Wedge, RS-232 and  
Light Pen Emulation  
The version “17” scanner head cable is terminated with a male 25-pin D-type  
connector. To connect the scanner to the PC, may require a communication  
cable and a transformer. The communication cable is terminated to two 5-pin  
DIN connectors that will directly connect to an IBM PC XT or AT compatible  
computer and keyboard. For the scanner to connect to an IBM PS/2 computer  
and keyboard, an adaptor kit with 6-pin mini-DIN connectors is provided  
when requested.  
The version “17” scanner is designed to be used as a keyboard wedge.  
However, with the appropriate communication cable, the scanner will also  
provide RS-232 or light pen emulation interface. When configuring the  
scanner for one interface versus another, change all necessary parameters for  
that particular interface. For instance, to configure the scanner for keyboard  
wedge emulation, recall defaults, select the PC type, keyboard country type  
and intercharacter delay. For further information, refer to the ScanSelect™  
Scanner Programming Guide or ScanSet™ Scanner Configuration Guide.  
The following is a list of the pin assignments. The pin numbers are impressed

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.

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.
