THE MS6130 HAND HELD BAR CODE SCANNER
MS6130 Hand Held Bar Code Scanners are wireless scanners with a
mobility range of up to 30 feet from the receiver. When not in use, the
scanner rests in a universal-charging stand. The scanner will be fully
charged in 2 hours when not scanning in the stand. A fully charged MS6130
can provide up to 8 hours of wireless, hand-held scanning. After dormant
periods, the scanner is programmed to enter a timeout mode that will extend
the battery life. There is a reactivation switch conveniently located on the
side of the scanner to turn the unit back on. The scanner has a replaceable
battery pack for added reliability and convenience for your scanning
application.
Metrologic’s scanner uses wireless data communication to transfer
information to the host. The MS6130 may be used with Metrologic’s MX003
Series Scanner Interfaces to provide the short range, one-way
communication link between the scanner and an RS-232, Keyboard Wedge
or Light Pen host device.
The MS6130 uses Metrologic’s patented Infrared Object Sensor for
triggerless operation. The scanner, after a specified time, will enter a
standby mode where the VLD and motor will shut off. Simply present an
object in front of the scanner window, the Infrared Sensor will reactivate the
scanner and the unit will be ready to scan.
To indicate the status of the scanner, the MS6130 uses a green and red
LED located on the top of the scanner. By understanding the flashes of the
LED, you can determine a successful read, laser status, low battery power,
sleep mode, and program mode. There are audible indicators on the
scanner as well. The scanner will beep; one, two or three times to indicate
successful power up or scan, low battery, or program mode, respectively, or
give a razzberry tone; which indicates the scanner has failed diagnostics
upon power up.
In this manual, the MS6130 may be referred to as the scanner or transmitter.

MX003 SERIES SCANNER INTERFACES
Metrologic’s MX003 Series Scanner Interfaces provide a short range, one-
way wireless data communication link between a remote portable scanner
and an RS-232 or light pen host device. Specifically, Metrologic’s MS6130
Hand-Held Laser Scanners include a Liberty®RF transmitter board.
Metrologic’s MS700i/MS720i series scanners, TECH series scanners may
be connected to a MX Series scanner interface. The “MX” scanner interface
includes a RF receiver and a digital interface board.
The MS6130 scanner provides two functions:
•Scans and decodes bar codes
•Transmits scanned data to the RF receiver or “MX”
When the “MX” interface is connected to a ScanPal®or host device such as
a portable data terminal (PDT), it provides two functions
(For example, refer to Figure 1):
•Performs the RF receiver function; for example, beeps to show it has
received data from the transmitter
•Communicates with the host device
In this manual, MX003 series scanner interfaces may be referred to as the
“MX”, “MX” interface or receiver. Suffix of the MX003 model designation will
vary due to country of usage.

CONNECTIONS OF THE “MX” INTERFACE TO THE HOST DEVICE
Except version 17
1. Turn off the host system.
2. Connect the MCA to the host device. Connect the “MX” interface to
the MCA.
3. Check the AC input requirements of the transformer to make sure the
voltage matches the AC outlet. The socket outlet should be near the
equipment and easily accessible.
4. Plug the transformer into the side of the MCA and the AC outlet.
5. Power up the host system.

To maintain compliance with applicable standards, all circuits connected
to the unit must meet the requirements for SELV (Safety Extra Low
Voltage) according to EN 60950.
