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.  Plug the other end of the 

communication cable into the host’s 
keyboard port. 

 

5.  Plug the external 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 3 times indicating that the scanner is ready for use. 

 

8.  Turn on the host device. 
 

Plugging the scanner into a port on the host device does not guarantee 
that scanned information will be communicated properly to the host 
device.  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.
