INSTALLATION RS232, RS232 TTL, Light Pen or Laser Emulation 1. Turn off the host device. 2. Plug the male 10-pin RJ45 end of the PowerLink cable into the 10-pin socket on the IS3480. 3. Connect the 9-pin female end of the PowerLink cable to the host device. Note: Skip to step 6 if receiving power from the host device. 4. Plug the external power supply into the power jack on the PowerLink cable. Check the AC input requirements of the power supply to make sure the voltage matches the AC outlet.
PAGE 11
INSTALLATION RS485 1. Turn off the host device. 2. Plug the male 10-pin RJ45 end of the MVC cable into the 10-pin socket on the IS3480. 3. Connect the other end of the MVC cable to the host device. 4. Turn on the host device. Figure 5. When the scanner first receives power, the blue LED will turn on; the scanner will simultaneously beep once and flash the white LED. Plugging the scanner into the serial port of the PC does not guarantee that scanned information will appear at the PC.
PAGE 12
INSTALLATION Keyboard Wedge 1. Turn off the host device. 2. Plug the male 10-pin RJ45 end of the PowerLink cable into the 10-pin socket on the IS3480. 3. Disconnect the keyboard from the host device. 4. Connect the “Y” end of the PowerLink cable to the keyboard and the keyboard port on the host device. If necessary, use the male/female adapter cable supplied with the scanner for proper connections. 5. Plug the external power supply into the power jack on the PowerLink cable.
PAGE 13
INSTALLATION Stand-Alone Keyboard 1. Turn off the host device. 2. Plug the male 10-pin RJ45 end of the PowerLink cable into the 10-pin socket on the IS3480. 3. Connect the other end of the PowerLink cable to the keyboard port on the host device. 4. Plug the external power supply into the power jack on the PowerLink cable. Check the AC input requirements of the power supply to make sure the voltage matches the AC outlet. The outlet must be located near the equipment and be easily accessible. 5.
PAGE 14
INSTALLATION Low Speed USB (Integrated) 1. Turn off the host device. 2. Plug the male 10-pin RJ45 end of the USB PowerLink cable into the 10-pin socket on the IS3480. 3. Plug the other end of the USB interface cable into the host device’s USB port. 4. Turn on the host device. As a default, the IS3480-38 leaves the factory with USB Keyboard Emulation Mode enabled.
PAGE 15
INSTALLATION Notes for Laser Emulation IS3480-104 Only The IS3480-104 leaves the factory with the Laser Emulation Mode enabled. If the Recall Defaults bar code is scanned while reconfiguring the scanner, the laser emulation mode will no longer be enabled. Scan the following bar code to re-enable the laser emulation interface. This feature is only supported for IS3480-104 models.
PAGE 16
SCANNER OPERATION Configurable Primary and Secondary Scan Pattern Modes There are two configurable scan pattern modes available with the IS3480. • The primary scan pattern mode is the default scan pattern active when the scanner starts. • The secondary scan pattern mode is activated by pressing the button located on the side of the scanner. This mode is also referred to as the button mode.

PAGE 21
SCANNER OPERATION Sweet Spot Mode The sweet spot mode is used to determine where the maximum read rate area or “sweet spot” is located for a specific bar code type. When activated this mode provides visual and audible feedback indicating how the scanner is scanning.
PAGE 22
SCANNER OPERATION Audible Indicators When the IS3480 is in operation, it can provide audible feedback. These sounds indicate the status of the scanner. Eight settings are available for the tone of the beep (normal, six alternate tones and no tone). For instruction on how to change the tone of the beeper, refer to the MetroSelect Configuration Guide (00-02407).
PAGE 23
SCANNER OPERATION Visual Indicators There are four LEDs located on the top of the IS3480. When the scanner is on, the flashing or constant illumination of the LEDs indicates the status of the current scan and the scanner. No LEDs The LEDs will not be illuminated if the scanner is not receiving power from the host or transformer. They are also not illuminated when all lasers are turned off for any reason. Steady Blue When the laser is active, the blue LED is illuminated.
PAGE 24
SCANNER OPERATION Failure Mode Indicators Flashing Blue and One Razzberry Tone This indicates that the scanner has experienced a laser subsystem failure. Return the unit to an authorized service center for repair. Flashing Blue and White and Two Razzberry Tones This indicates that the scanner has experienced a motor failure. Return the unit to an authorized service center for repair.

SCANNER OPERATION IR Activation Range* QuantumE’s default power save mode† is Laser OFF. This power save mode turns the laser off after a configured period of non-use. Any movement detected by the IR in the activation area will cause the scanner to exit power save mode. The laser will automatically turn back on preparing the scanner for bar code recognition, decoding and transmission. Figure 13. IR Activation Range * All specifications are subject to change without notice.

TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE The following guide is for reference purposes only. Contact a Honeywell representative to preserve the limited warranty terms on page 47. Symptoms Possible Cause(s) Solution All Interfaces The unit has no LEDs, beeper or motor spin. No power is being supplied to the scanner. Check the transformer, outlet and power strip. Make sure the cable is plugged into the scanner. The unit has no LEDs and/or beeper. No power is being supplied to the scanner from host.
PAGE 31
TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE Symptoms Possible Cause(s) Solution 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. The bar code may have been printed incorrectly. Check if it is a check digit, character or border problem. The scanner is not configured correctly for the type of bar code.
PAGE 32
TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE Symptoms Possible Cause(s) Solution RS232 Only The unit powers up OK and scans OK but does not communicate properly to the host. The com port at the host is not working or is not configured properly. The cable is not connected to the proper com port. Check to make sure that the baud rate and parity of the scanner and the communication port match and that the program is looking for RS232 data. The com port is not operating properly.

UPGRADING THE FIRMWARE The IS3480 is part of Honeywell's line of scanners with flash upgradeable firmware. The upgrade process requires, a new firmware file supplied to the customer by a customer service representative and Honeywell's MetroSet2 software. A personal computer running Windows 95 or greater with an available RS232 serial or USB port is required to complete the upgrade. Do not use the standard cable supplied with Keyboard Wedge or RS485 IS3480 interface kits for firmware upgrades.
