THE MS6130 HAND HELD BAR CODE SCANNER
MS6130 Hand Held Bar Code Scanners are wireless scanners with a
mobility range of up to 30 feet from the receiver. When not in use, the
scanner rests in a universal-charging stand. The scanner will be fully
charged in 2 hours when not scanning in the stand. A fully charged MS6130
can provide up to 8 hours of wireless, hand-held scanning. After dormant
periods, the scanner is programmed to enter a timeout mode that will extend
the battery life. There is a reactivation switch conveniently located on the
side of the scanner to turn the unit back on. The scanner has a replaceable
battery pack for added reliability and convenience for your scanning
application.
Metrologic’s scanner uses wireless data communication to transfer
information to the host. The MS6130 may be used with Metrologic’s MX003
Series Scanner Interfaces to provide the short range, one-way
communication link between the scanner and an RS-232, Keyboard Wedge
or Light Pen host device.
The MS6130 uses Metrologic’s patented Infrared Object Sensor for
triggerless operation. The scanner, after a specified time, will enter a
standby mode where the VLD and motor will shut off. Simply present an
object in front of the scanner window, the Infrared Sensor will reactivate the
scanner and the unit will be ready to scan.
To indicate the status of the scanner, the MS6130 uses a green and red
LED located on the top of the scanner. By understanding the flashes of the
LED, you can determine a successful read, laser status, low battery power,
sleep mode, and program mode. There are audible indicators on the
scanner as well. The scanner will beep; one, two or three times to indicate
successful power up or scan, low battery, or program mode, respectively, or
give a razzberry tone; which indicates the scanner has failed diagnostics
upon power up.
In this manual, the MS6130 may be referred to as the scanner or transmitter.

MX003 SERIES SCANNER INTERFACES
Metrologic’s MX003 Series Scanner Interfaces provide a short range, one-
way wireless data communication link between a remote portable scanner
and an RS-232 or light pen host device. Specifically, Metrologic’s MS6130
Hand-Held Laser Scanners include a Liberty® RF transmitter board.
Metrologic’s MS700i/MS720i series scanners, TECH series scanners may
be connected to a MX Series scanner interface. The “MX” scanner interface
includes a RF receiver and a digital interface board.
The MS6130 scanner provides two functions:
·
·
Scans and decodes bar codes
Transmits scanned data to the RF receiver or “MX”
When the “MX” interface is connected to a ScanPal® or host device such as
a portable data terminal (PDT), it provides two functions
(For example, refer to Figure 1):

CONFIGURATION OF THE MS700I/MS720I WITH “MX”
TO THE HOST SYSTEM
To perform matching procedure refer to page 18.
Before the MS700i/MS720i scanner ships from the factory, the factory
programs the scanner to a group of default settings noted in the
ScanSelect™ Scanner Programming Guide. An asterisk marks each default
setting. The asterisk appears before the brief definition located near the bar
code. Once RF communication establishes, change the default settings of
your scanner to meet your individual scanning needs or your host system’s
communication requirements. Modify the scanner's settings by entering the
program mode and scanning the appropriate bar codes that appear in the
ScanSelect Scanner Programming Guide.
Note: When the Load Defaults bar code in the ScanSelect Scanner
Programming Guide is chosen, it will automatically disable the RF
low speed option. For the MS6130 to communicate to the
MS700i/MS720i scanner, re-enable the RF Low Speed Option (refer
to the procedure above).

KB Parameter - Inter Scan Code Delay (AT and PS/2 Modes)
The time specified with an interscan code
delay bar code represents the amount of time
between individual 9 bit scan codes. Each
character of a bar code takes between two
and twelve of these scan codes to be passed
through to the PC via the keyboard interface.
This parameter may need to be adjusted for
operation with certain PC keyboard BIOS’s.
Network operating systems often use
microprocessor time slices to service network
information requests instead of the keyboard
interface. While not an issue with manually
entered keystrokes, this timing can be critical
with automatic scanner data entry. Interscan
code delays can be a useful system tuning
tool in these environments.

CONFIGURATION OF THE MS6130 HAND-HELD
To perform matching procedure refer to page 18.
Before the MS6130 scanner ships from the factory, the factory programs the
scanners to a set of default settings. These default settings can be found in
the MS4120 Programming Guide. The default settings have an asterisk that
appears before the brief definition located near the bar code. Once RF
communication establishes, change the default settings of your scanner to
meet your individual scanning needs. Configure the scanner by scanning
the Transmitter Enter/Exit Program Mode bar code and the appropriate bar
codes in the MS4120 Programming Guide.
For example, to program the MS6130 not to read ITF
(Interleaved 2 of 5) bar code types:
·
With the MS6130, scan the Enter/Exit Program Mode bar code in the
MS4120 Programming Guide, the Disable ITF bar code, then the
Enter/Exit Program Mode bar code again.
Note: When the MS6130 is in program mode, never scan any of the
RS-232 or light pen options marked with an “R”. The list of
options is in the Default Settings of the Transmitter and “MX”
Receiver section of this guide when using the MS4120
Programming Guide. The MS6130 is in program mode when
scanning the Enter/Exit Program Mode bar code in the
MS4120 Programming Guide.

CHANGING THE ID
In order for the MS6130 to send data to the correct receiver, they must have
a matching ID number. The ID number is the serial number of the receiver.
When the matching procedure is completed, the receiver will accept data
only from a MS6130 that has the matching ID number. Each receiver is
programmed with its serial number before it leaves the factory.
1. To program a new ID for the receiver, HANDSET
(Version 1.14 or greater) must be used. Type the following at the
DOS prompt:
HANDSET /X
2. Power up the receiver, but DO NOT scan any bar codes.
3. Select “Enter Program Mode”. Select the appropriate SERIAL PORT
(COM 1 or COM 2) on the PC. Make sure the Receiver is connected
to the SERIAL PORT selected.

VISUAL INDICATORS
The scanner has red and green LEDs. When the scanner is on, the LEDs
indicate the status of the scan and scanner.
No Red or Green
The scanner will turn off if the scanner has
been dormant for a specified time. To
reactivate the unit, direct the output window
up then down toward the bar coded product.
If the unit has been dormant for longer than
10 minutes, reactivating the unit by pressing
the button on the side of the MS6130 will be
necessary.
Red Flash; Green Flash;
When the scanner first receives power, the
steady red LED will flash, followed by the
green LED.
Steady Red
When the laser is on, the red LED will also be
on. This occurs when an object is in the scan
field. If the scanner does not detect a bar
code within approximately 2.5 seconds, the
red LED will shut off indicating that the laser is
no longer on. If the red LED remains on for
longer than 7.5 seconds, then the scanner is
in program mode.
Steady Red; Green Flash
Repetitive Red Flashes
When the scanner successfully reads a bar
code, the green LED will flash. If the green
LED does not flash, then the bar code read
was not successful.
When the red LED flashes several times while
it lays upon a stationary surface, then an
object is within the scan field and is activating
the IR sensor. This can occur even while the
scanner is lying upon the counter or cradle.
To eliminate this disturbance, direct the scan
window toward a different location.
24
AUDIBLE INDICATORS
When the scanner and “MX” receiver are in operation, they provide audible
indications. These sounds indicate the status of the scan and scanner.
One Beep
When the “MX” Receiver first receives power, the unit will
beep once.
If the scanner successfully reads a bar code, the green
light will flash. If the “MX” receiver successfully receives
the data from the MS6130, the “MX” will beep once.
Razzberry Tone If, upon power up, the scanner emits a razzberry tone,
then the scanner has failed diagnostics.
The “MX” receiver will emit a razzberry tone if an invalid
bar code is scanned while the receiver is in program
mode.
The “MX” receiver can be programmed to emit a
razzberry tone when the timeout occurs during
communication between the host and receiver.
Refer to the MS4120 Programming Guide section,
Audible Indicators for Communication Timeouts to
program this feature.
Two Beeps
The MS6130 scanner will quietly beep twice when
scanning a bar code if the batteries become low.
Three Beeps
When scanning the MS6130 Enter/Exit Program Mode
bar code in the MS4120 Programming Guide, the green
LED will flash three times while the scanner
simultaneously beeps three times. When exiting the
program mode, the same visual and audible indications
will occur. After this sequence is completed, the red LED
will turn off. When scanning the Enter/Exit Program Mode
for the Receiver bar code, the “MX” receiver will beep
three times to indicate it is in or exiting out of the program
mode.
(continued next page)
25
AUDIBLE INDICATORS (CONTINUED)
The “MX” receiver can be programmed to emit three
beeps when the timeout occurs during communication
between the host and receiver. Refer to the MS4120
Programming Guide section, Audible Indicators for
Communication Timeouts to program this feature.
There are four settings available for the tone of the beep for the receiver.
Refer to the MS4120 Programming Guide section, Beeper Tones to program
the feature to change the tone or turn the beeper off.
26
LABELS
The MS6130 scanner is either a CDRH Class II laser system or an IEC
Class 1 Laser System. Your unit will have a CDRH Class II caution label or
LASERKLASSE 1 label affixed below the model number label. The model
number/avoid exposure label is located on the bottom of the scanner’s head.
The following are examples of these labels:
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, non-abrasive cleaning cloth.
2. Gently wipe the output window.
27
TROUBLESHOOTING
1. The receiver can receive data from a MS6130 with its own ID or 10
zeroes. It’s own ID can be received all the time. When using 10
zeroes, the first scan the receiver gets must have 10 zeroes as its ID
and from that point on the receiver will accept both ID’s.
Power down the receiver. Using the MS6130, scan the bar codes from
section 9 in the Matching MS6130 to the Receiver section and use the
following bar code as the ID number.
Scanner ID Number
0
0
0
0
0
0
0
0
0
0
Note: Use this bar code for troubleshooting purposes only.
2. Power up the receiver.
3. If the user is trying to match a new ID to the receiver and the receiver is
powered up, the receiver will beep 3 times if the ID number it receives
matches its current ID.
4. When the MS6130 is in program mode, never scan any of the RS-232
or light pen options marked with an “R”. The list of options is in the
Default Settings of the MS6130 and “MX” Receiver section of this guide
when using the MS4120 Programming Guide. The MS6130 is in
program mode when scanning the Enter/Exit Program Mode bar code
in the MS4120 Programming Guide. If a receiver option is chosen while
the MS6130 is in program mode, RF communication between the
MS6130 and receiver may terminate. If this occurs, the only way to
reestablish RF communication is by performing all the RF configuration
procedures again.

APPENDIX B
Default Settings of the MS6130 and “MX” Receiver
Before the MS6130 hand-held scanner and “MX” Receiver ships from the
factory, the factory programs the scanners to a group of default settings. An
asterisk ( * ) in the charts on the following pages marks the default settings
of the units. If an asterisk is not in the default column then the default setting
is Off or Disabled.
The MS6130 and “MX” receiver do not support every parameter. For those
parameters that are a transmitter function, a letter “T” will appear in the
second column of the charts, for the “MX”, the
letter “R”.
RS-232, light pen and keyboard wedge emulation does not support every
parameter. If your host device’s communication supports a parameter listed
in the charts on the following pages, a check mark will appear.
In order for the “MX” receiver to communicate with your RS-232, light pen or
keyboard wedge host device properly, program it to meet your individual
scanning needs. Since each host system is unique, change the default
settings to match your host system requirements. To modify default settings,
refer to the MS4120 and MS951 Programming Guides.
Note: If your “MX” Interface is connected to a MS700i/MS720i scanner,
use the bar codes in the ScanSelect Programming Guide to match
your scanner’s settings to the host system requirements.
