About This Manual
This User’s Guide provides installation and programming instructions for
the Metapace S-62 area-imaging scanner. Product specifications, dimensions,
warranty, and customer support information are also included.
Metapace bar code scanners are factory programmed for the most common termi-
nal and communications settings. If you need to change these settings, pro-
gramming is accomplished by scanning the bar codes in this guide.
An asterisk (*) next to an option indicates the default setting.
Unpacking Your Device

A scanner can be connected to the USB port of a computer.
1. Connect the appropriate interface cable to the device first, then to the
computer.
2. The scanner beeps.
3. Verify the scanner operation by scanning a bar code from the Sample
Symbols in the back of this manual.
The unit defaults to a USB PC Keyboard. Refer to page 2-4 for other USB
terminal settings.
For additional USB programming and technical information, refer to “USB
Application Note,” available at www.honeywellaidc.com.
Connecting with Keyboard Wedge
A scanner can be connected between the keyboard and PC as a “keyboard
wedge,” where the scanner provides data output that is similar to keyboard
entries. The following is an example of a keyboard wedge connection:
1. Turn off power and disconnect the keyboard cable from the back of the
terminal/computer.

Reading Techniques
The scanner has a view finder that projects a bright red aiming beam that corre-
sponds to the scanner’s horizontal field of view. The aiming beam should be
centered over the bar code, but it can be positioned in any direction for a good
read.
The aiming beam or pattern is smaller when the scanner is closer to the code
and larger when it is farther from the code. Symbologies with smaller bars or
elements (mil size) should be read closer to the unit. Symbologies with larger
bars or elements (mil size) should be read farther from the unit. To read single
or multiple symbols (on a page or on an object), hold the scanner at an appro-
priate distance from the target, press the button, and center the aiming beam or
pattern on the symbol. If the code being scanned is highly reflective (e.g., lami-
nated), it may be necessary to tilt the code up 15° to 18° to prevent unwanted
reflection.
Menu Bar Code Security Settings
Metapace scanners are programmed by scanning menu bar codes or by sending
serial commands to the scanner. If you want to restrict the ability to scan menu
codes, you can use the Menu Bar Code Security settings. Please contact the
nearest technical support office (see Customer Support on page 11-1) for fur-
ther information.

Setting Custom Defaults
You have the ability to create a set of menu commands as your own, custom
defaults. To do so, scan the Set Custom Defaults bar code below before
scannning the menu commands for your custom defaults. If a menu command
requires scanning numeric codes from the back cover, then a Save code, that
entire sequence will be saved to your custom defaults. When you have entered
all the commands you want to save for your custom defaults, scan the Save
Custom Defaults bar code.
You may have a series of custom settings and want to correct a single setting.
To do so, just scan the new setting to overwrite the old one. For example, if you
had previously saved the setting for Beeper Volume at Low to your custom
defaults, and decide you want the beeper volume set to High, just scan the Set
Custom Defaults bar code, then scan the Beeper Volume High menu code,
and then Save Custom Defaults. The rest of the custom defaults will remain,
but the beeper volume setting will be updated.
Resetting the Custom Defaults
If you want the custom default settings restored to your scanner, scan the Acti-
vate Custom Defaults bar code below. This is the recommended default bar
code for most users. It resets the scanner to the custom default settings. If
there are no custom defaults, it will reset the scanner to the factory default set-
tings. Any settings that have not been specified through the custom defaults
will be defaulted to the factory default settings.

Resetting the Factory Defaults
If you aren’t sure what programming options are in your scanner, or you’ve
changed some options and want to restore the scanner to factory default set-
tings, first scan the Remove Custom Defaults bar code, then scan Activate
Defaults. This resets the scanner to the factory default settings.
This selection erases all your settings and resets the scanner to the
original factory defaults. It also disables all plugins
.

Programming the Interface
Introduction
This chapter describes how to program your system for the desired interface.
Programming the Interface - Plug and Play
Plug and Play bar codes provide instant scanner set up for commonly used
interfaces.
Note: After you scan one of the codes, power cycle the host terminal to have
the interface in effect.
Keyboard Wedge
If you want your system programmed for an IBM PC AT and compatibles key-
board wedge interface with a USA keyboard, scan the bar code below. Key-
board wedge is the default interface.
Note: The following bar code also programs a carriage return (CR) suffix.
Laptop Direct Connect
For most laptops, scanning the Laptop Direct Connect bar code allows opera-
tion of the scanner in parallel with the integral keyboard. The following Laptop
Direct Connect bar code also programs a carriage return (CR) suffix and turns
on Emulate External Keyboard (page 2-12).

USB IBM SurePos
Scan one of the following “Plug and Play” codes to program the scanner for an
IBM SurePos (USB handheld scanner) or IBM SurePos (USB tabletop scanner)
interface.
Note: After scanning one of these codes, you must power cycle the cash
register.
Each bar code above also programs the following suffixes for each symbology:
USB PC or Macintosh Keyboard
Scan one of the following codes to program the scanner for USB PC Keyboard
or USB Macintosh Keyboard. Scanning these codes also adds a CR and LF.
