NSTALLATION

 

 

1.  Turn off the host system. 

2.  Plug the male, 10-pin RJ45 end  

of the PowerLink cable into the  
10-pin socket on the MS5145. 

3.  Connect the 9-Pin female end of the 

PowerLink cable to the appropriate 
communication 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. 

5.  Connect AC power to the transformer. 

6.  Turn on the host system. 

 

Plugging the scanner into the serial port of the PC does not guarantee that 
scanned information will appear at the PC.  A software driver and correct 
configuration settings are also required for proper communications to 
occur. 

 

 

Powering the MS5145 directly from the host device can sometimes cause 
interference with the operation of the scanner or the computer.  Not all 
computers supply the same current.  For this reason, Metrologic 
recommends using an external power supply.  For additional information 
contact a Metrologic customer service representative. 

 

 All 

MS5145-00 scanners leave the factory with the Laser Emulation Mode 

enabled.  If you recall defaults while re-configuring the scanner the Laser 
Emulation Mode will no longer be enabled.  Refer to the MS5145-00 Laser 
Emulation Mode section of the MetroSelect Single-Line Configuration 
Guide for information on enabling the Laser Emulation Mode.
