Product Overview

Metrologic's MS9500 Voyager

series of hand-held (single-line) laser scanners

offers the user an aggressive solution for scanning all standard 1D bar codes

including GS1 DataBar™ (RSS) bar codes. The MS9500 series is equipped with

both in-stand and out-of-stand operation enabling hand-held or fixed projection

scanning. The MS9520 Voyager model includes all of the same features as the

MS9540 VoyagerCG model, with the exception of Metrologic’s patented

CodeGate

technology.

The MS9540, VoyagerCG incorporates Metrologic’s patented auto-trigger and

CodeGate button feature. When a bar code is place in the scanner’s IR range,

the auto-trigger activates the laser enabling the user to align the visible laser line

over the bar code selected for scanning. The user can then press the CodeGate

button, to transmit the data to the host system. When the MS9540 is placed in

the stand the CodeGate button feature will automatically deactivating for hands

free operation.

Some additional key product features for the MS9500 series include:

•Auto-trigger operation and auto-stand detect

•CodeGate data transmission technology (MS9540 only)

•Flash – upgradeable firmware

•Easy configuration with MetroSelect

bar codes and MetroSet

Windows

compatible software

•Support for common interfaces including USB (see chart below)

Disconnecting the PowerLink Cable

Before removing the cable from the scanner, Metrologic recommends that the

power on the host system is off and the power supply has been disconnected

from the PowerLink cable.

Figure 2.

1. Locate the small ‘pin-hole’ on the top of the unit near the bottom of the

Voyager logo.

2. Bend an ordinary paperclip into the shape shown above.

3. Insert the paperclip (or other small metallic pin) into the small ‘pin-hole’.

4. There will be an audible click when the connector lock releases. Pull gently

on the strain-relief of the PowerLink cable to separate the cable from the

scanner.

Connecting the PowerLink Cable

Important: If the PowerLink cable is not fully latched, the unit can power

intermittently.

Figure 3. Figure 4.

NTRODUCTION

Labels

Every scanner has labels and molded text located on the underside of the unit.

The labels and text contain important information such as the unit’s date of

manufacture, serial number, CE and caution information. Figure 5 provides

examples of the labels and the molded text.

Figure 5 . Molded Text and Label Examples

Caution:

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/IEC

60950-1.

To maintain compliance with standard CSA-C22.2 No. 60950-1/UL 60950-1 and norm

EN/IEC 60950-1, the power source should meet applicable performance requirements for

a limited power source.

Maintenance

Smudges and dirt on the unit's window can interfere with the unit's performance.

If the window requires cleaning, use only a mild glass cleaner containing no

ammonia. When cleaning the window, spray the cleaner onto a lint free,

non-abrasive cleaning cloth then gently wipe the window clean.

If the unit's case requires cleaning, use a mild cleaning agent that does not

contain strong oxidizing chemicals. Strong cleaning agents may discolor or

damage the unit's exterior.
