Introduction ® Metrologic's TECH 7 laser bar code projection scanner is encased in an NEMA-12 steel case. The case construction enables the scanner to operate in harsh surroundings, especially industrial environments. Water-resistant, shock-resistant, and rugged, the TECH 7 is also fast, aggressive and reliable. It can register bar codes at a range of 76mm - 254mm (3" - 10") and can autodiscriminate among all common codes. To suit particular applications, two different scan patterns are avai

Scanner Installation To maintain compliance with applicable standards, all circuits con- nected to the scanner must meet the requirements for SELV (Safety Extra Low Voltage) according to EN 60950. To avoid potential prob- lems, do not power up the scanner until the communication cable is secured to the host. 1. "Power off" the host system. 2. Locate the 19-pin female end of the scanner link cable and find the widest key located above pins L and A. Align this key with the corresponding key on

Configuration to the Host System The scanner is shipped from the factory programmed to a set of default conditions noted in the ScanSelect™ Scanner Programming Guide by an asterisk that appears before the brief definition located next to the bar code. In order for the scanner to communicate with a host system properly, it may need to be programmed. Since each host system is unique, con- figure the scanner to match the host system requirements. Configure the scanner by entering the program mode

Stand Installation With the Metrologic stand (Part #45475), the scanner can be posi- tioned in one of two directions. The two orientation choices are vertical or horizontal. (Refer to Figure 1) Vertical Mount Horizontal Mount Figure 1: Stand Orientation To install this stand, use the four 6-32 x ½ inch machine screws and two #10 pan head wood screws. 1. Drill two holes into the work surface that are the same size and distance as the holes on 1.00 in the stand base. (Refer to Figure 2) 3.00

Back Plate Installation With the Metrologic back plate (Part #45473), position the scanner in one of two directions. The two Vertical Mount orientation choices are vertical or horizontal. (Refer to Figure 4). To use this stand, use the four 6-32 x ½ inch machine screws and Horizontal Mount four wood screws to attach the unit to the back plate and work surface. The maximum distance the screws Figure 4: Back Plate Orientation should go into the scanner is a ½ inch. 1. Drill four holes i

Parts of Scanner 1 2 3 4 Figure 6: Scanner Parts 1 Greenand RedLEDs 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. 2 Speaker The speaker emits a beep when a bar code has been decoded. 3 Laser Output Window This aperture emits the laser light. 4 Mil specConnector The 19-pin male Mil spec connector was

Visual Indicators There is a red and green LED at the top of the scanner. When the scanner is on, the flashing or stationary activity of the LEDs indicates the status of the scan and scanner. Steady Green When the laser is on, the green LED is also on. This occurs when an object is in the scan field. Steady Green; Red Flash When the scanner successfully reads a bar code, the red LED will flash then beep once. If the red LED does not flash or the scanner does not beep once, then the bar code has

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 périod

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 bes- timmten Zeitraum

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 determin

Maintenance Smudges and dirt can interfere with the proper scanning of a bar code. Therefore, the output window will need occasional cleaning. 1. Spray glass cleaner onto lint free, nonabrasive cleaning cloth. 2. Gently wipe the output window.
