INTRODUCTION
MS9535 VoyagerBTlaser bar code scanner is a new member of Metrologic’s
Voyager series. While featuring the patented technologies of automatic trigger
and CodeGate button, the VoyagerBT has incorporated the latest Bluetooth™
wireless technology. With this technology, it allows the scanner freedom of
mobility, up to 10 meters from the cradle.
VoyagerBT works hand in hand with its cradle. Before normal scanning, the
scanner must establish communications with the cradle by scanning a Bluetooth
address bar code. After communications have been established between the
scanner and cradle, futures bar code scans will be transmitted from the scanner
to the cradle and from the cradle to the host.
The cradle of the VoyagerBT also works as a battery charger for the scanner.
When resting in the cradle, the scanner can reach a fully charged state in 2.5
hours. When fully charged, the scanner can provide up to 12,000 scans. For
power saving, the scanner can be put into a full sleep mode by depressing the
CodeGate button for 5 seconds after the laser has shut down. In this mode, the
scanner can remain powered for up to 35 hours before the batteries require
recharging. To wake-up the scanner, simply depress the CodeGate button, and
the scanner will resume normal operation, after an automatic reset.
VoyagerBT includes ability to decode Reduced Space Symbology (RSS) bar
codes. VoyagerBT offers checkout personnel the ability to scan bulky items
without the need for unnecessary heavy lifting by customers or checkout
personnel, making for added convenience. It can be used in applications
including supermarkets, hypermarkets, shopping clubs, retailers, light warehouse
and manufacturing.

QUICK START
1. Connect the 10-pin RJ45 male connector into the 10-pin modular jack on the
bottom of the cradle. You will hear a ‘click’ when the connection is made.
2. Connect the plug of the power supply into the power jack on the bottom of
the cradle.
3. Connect the power supply into an AC outlet. The blue LED on the rear of the
cradle will stay on.
4. Pick up the scanner and scan the Bluetooth address code on the cradle, you
will hear 3 continuous beeps. After 4 seconds, both the blue LEDs of the
charger cradle and the scanner flashes, followed by a 3 combination beeps.
This means the communication between the cradle and the scanner has
been established successfully.
*This is a configuration bar code attached on the cradle. Before the normal scanning,
you must establish a communication between the scanner and the receiver. Please go
to Page 8 for more details.
Caution:
To maintain compliance with applicable standards, all circuits connected to the scanner must
meet the requirements for SELV ( Safety Extra Low Voltage) according to EN 60950.
To maintain compliance with standard CSA C22.2 No. 950/UL 1950 and norm EN 60950, the
power source should meet applicable performance requirements for a limited power source.

QUICK START (CONTINUED)
5. Scan a bar code anywhere within 10 meters from the cradle. The scanner
will beep once and flash the white LED. The blue LED of the cradle will also
flash once, indicating that the bar code has been successfully read and
transmitted.
MS9535 VoyagerBT also provides two modes of operation:
1. Auto-trigger mode
When the scanner is at rest in the cradle, it is in auto-trigger mode. While in
this mode, present a bar code in the scanning field and the data is
automatically decoded and transmitted.
2. CodeGate mode
When the scanner is removed from the cradle, it is in CodeGate mode.
While in this mode, scanned bar code data is only decoded and transmitted
when the CodeGate button is pressed.
MS9535 is shipped from the factory programmed with default settings.
Refer to the MetroSelectSingle-Line Programming Guide (MLPN 00-
02544B) or MetroSet2’s help files for instructions on how to configure the
scanner.
