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 MS1890.  There will be 
an audible click when the connector 
lock engages.  

 

3.  Slide the protective cable boot up the 

cable, over the connector and onto 
the end of scanner handle.  

 

4.  Connect the 9-pin D-type connector 

of the communication cable to the 
proper COM port of the host device. 

 

5.  Plug the power supply into the power 

jack on the PowerLink cable.  

 

Check the AC input 
requirements of the power 
supply to verify the voltage 
matches the AC outlet.  The 
outlet must be located near 
the equipment and be easily 
accessible. 

 

6.  Connect AC power to the transformer. 

 

7.  The MS1890 will start to initialize.  All LEDs (yellow, white, and blue) will 

light for approximately 2 seconds then start to flash alternately.  When the 
scanner has finished initializing the LEDs will stop flashing and the unit will 
beep three times indicating that the scanner is ready for use. 

 

8.  Turn on the host device. 

Plugging the scanner into a port on the host system does not guarantee 
that scanned information will be communicated properly to the host 
system.  The scanner is shipped from the factory configured with default 
settings.  Please refer to the MetroSelect Single-Line Configuration 
Guide (

MLPN 

00-02544) or MetroSet2’s help files for instructions on 

changing the scanner’s configuration.  In addition, please check that the 
scanner and host system are using the same communication protocol.
