Audible Indicators When the MS951 scanner is in operation, it provides audible indications. These sounds indicate the status of the scan and scanner. One Beep * When the scanner first receives power, the red LED will blink, followed by the green LED, and then the scanner will emit one beep. 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 then beep once.
Visual Indicators There is a red and green LED at the top of the scanner. These LEDs indicate the status of the scan and scanner. No Red or Green Illumination of the LEDs will not occur if the scanner is not receiving power from the PC and if the scanner is receiving power but has remained dormant for a specified time thus turning the laser and motor off.
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 de palpage et de scanner. Ni la diode rouge, ni la diode verte n'est allumée Il existe deux raisons possibles quand les diodes ne s'allument pas. Si le scanner ne reçoit pas d'énergie de l'ordinateur PC, les diodes ne s'allument pas.
Optische Anzeigen Auf der Oberseite des Scanners befinden sich eine rote und eine grüne Leuchtdiodenanzeige. Ist der Scanner eingeschaltet, so geben Ihnen die blinkenden oder feststehenden Leuchtdiodenanzeigen Aufschluß über den Scannerstatus. Weder rote oder noch grüne Leuchtanzeige Es gibt zwei mögliche Gründe, weshalb die Leuchtdiodenanzeigen nicht aufleuchten. Bekommt der Scanner keine Energie vom PC ,leuchten die Leuchtdiodenanzeigen nicht auf.
Segnali ottici Sulla parte superiore dello 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. Se lo scanner non viene alimentato dal PC i diodi luminosi non sono accesi.
Label Locations The MS951 scanner is either a CDRH Class II laser system or an IEC Class 1 Laser System. The unit will have a CDRH Class II caution label or an LASERKLASSE 1 label affixed below the model number. The model number label is on the bottom of the scanner’s head. Directly below the output window at the front of the unit is a red avoid exposure label.
IR Sensor Activation The scanning process is initiated by an infrared (IR) device that is below the output window. The signal extends approximately eight (8) inches beyond the output window in long range mode and in short rang mode, it extends approximately three (3) inches (Refer to Figure 6). The IR device remains active as long as power is applied to the unit. When the unit remains dormant for a time, the laser will turn off. In this stage, the scanner’s computer is on “standby”.
Scan Field The depth of field for the scanner is from the face of the output window to five (5) inches (Refer to Figure 7). If the scanner is in the stand, present the bar code to the scanner. When holding the scanner, position the output window within five inches of the bar code.

Appendix C Pin Assignments Pin Assignments for the Coil Cable The MS951 scanners are terminated to a 10 position shielded modular connector. All of the coil cables (MLPN 44530) for the MS951 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.
Pin Assignments for the MCA951 (DEC9S) Located on the MCA is a 9-pin female D-type connector used to connect the MCA to the host device. The output signals on the 9-pin host end of the MCA are dependent upon which version of the scanner that is being used.
