Introduction
Product Overview
The MS7580 Genesis™ is a high performance presentation area-imaging bar
code imager that utilizes CMOS imaging sensors for superior image quality.
Genesis utilizes custom decoder software, for reliable decoding of both 1D and
2D bar code symbologies. Sharp images can be captured and transmitted in a
variety of outputs including: .jpg, .bmp, and .tiff.
Omnidirectional scanning capabilities and an excellent motion tolerance provides
aggressive scanning of all standard 1D, GS1 DataBar™ (RSS), PDF417,
microPDF, Composite, Matrix, and Postal Codes symbology types. Firmware
updates are easily loaded into Flash memory.
The MS7580 provides an extended scan volume and a built in object detection
sensor (IR) that instantly turns on the imager when an object is presented within
the imager’s field of view.
Genesis™Interface Support
MS7580–124
Interfaces supported include:
•RS232
•USB
•Keyboard Wedge
•RS485(External via Cable)
EAS equipped models are indicated with an EAS extension on the model number
(i.e., MS7580-124-EAS). See pages 39–47 for additional product information.
USB is configurable for Keyboard Emulation Mode, Bi-Directional Serial Emulation
Mode or IBM OEM. The default USB setting is Keyboard Emulation Mode.
Applicable for IBM®host applications.
Note: Standard models ship with the ability to read all 1D, PDF, and 2D bar
codes. Decoding and functional capability is limited and imagers will

Labels
Each MS7580 has a label located near the top of the output window. This label
provides the imager’s model number, date of manufacture, serial number, CE
and caution information. Additional information has been molded into the
underside of the imager's case. The following figure gives an example of the
label and the molded text with their locations identified.
Figure 2. Label and Molded Text Samples
For North America:
CAUTION: To maintain compliance with applicable standards, all circuits
connected to the scanner must meet the requirements of a NEC Class 2
power source or Limited Power Source as defined in UL 60950-1 Clause 2.5.
For Other Countries:
CAUTION: To maintain compliance with applicable standards, all circuits
connected to the scanner must meet the requirements of a Limited Power
Source as defined in IEC 60950-1 Clause 2.5.
Maintenance
Smudges and dirt on the imager's window can interfere with the imager's
performance. If the window requires cleaning, use only a mild glass cleaner
containing no ammonia. When cleaning the window, spray the cleaner onto a lint
free, non-abrasive cleaning cloth and then gently wipe the window clean.
If the imager's case requires cleaning, use a mild cleaning agent that does not
contain strong oxidizing chemicals. Strong cleaning agents may discolor or
damage the imager's exterior.

Cable Installation and Removal
Installation
1. Insert the cable’s modular connector into the socket on the imager.
2. Pull gently on the cable strain relief to ensure the cable is installed.
Note: If the cable is not fully latched, the imager may power intermittently.
Figure 3. Installing the Cable
Removal
Turn the host power off and disconnect the power supply from the cable before
attempting to disconnect the cable from the imager.
1. Locate the small pinhole on the imager near the cable connection point.
2. Bend a paperclip into the shape shown below.
3. Insert the paperclip into the pinhole and apply pressure to release the
connector lock.
4. Pull gently on the strain-relief of the cable to remove the cable from the
imager.
Figure 4. Disconnecting the Cable
MS7580-124-EAS Model Note
See page 39 for additional cable installation/removal instructions specific to the
MS7580-124-EAS Genesis with integrated RF EAS antenna.

connector into the socket on the imager.
3. Connect the other end of the cable to a
dedicated COM port on the host device.
4. Plug the 12V power supplyinto the
power jack on the cable.
5. 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
easily accessible.
6. Connect AC powerto the transformer.
7. The MS7580 will start to initialize.
The white and blue LED will alternately
fade on and off for three seconds.

Installation Notes
•MS7580-124-EAS models are equipped with an integrated RF EAS
antenna. See page 39 for additional cable installation instructions for
EAS equipped Genesis models.
•Plugging the imager into a port on the host system does not guarantee
that scanned information will be communicated properly to the host
system. The imager is shipped from the factory configured with default
settings. Please refer to the MetroSelect Single-Line Configuration
Guide (PN 00-02544) or MetroSet2’s help files for instructions on
changing the imager’s configuration. In addition, please check that the
imager and host system are using the same communication protocol.
