To order additional items, contact the dealer, distributor or call Metrologic’s Customer Service Department at 1-800-ID-METRO or 1-800-436-3876.
NTRODUCTION Mounting Specifications Drill two, 1.6 mm pilot holes in the mounting surface. The pilot holes should be located on a common centerline and be spaced 68.80 mm (2.70") apart. Secure the access point device to the mounting surface with the M2.5 x 1.1 - 10 mm, Phillips wood screws provided with the access point.
An additional copy of the address bar code is location on the top of the device near the Honeywell logo. The figure below provides examples of the labels and their locations on the access point device.
NSTALLATION Cable to Access Point Connection Align the tab on the modular connector with the pinhole on the access point device (see figure below). Insert the modular connector into the device’s socket. Test the cable’s connection to ensure the connector lock has engaged. Important: If the cable is not fully latched, the unit can power intermittently.
NSTALLATION USB Host Connections Turn off power to the host system. Plug the USB connector into the to a dedicated USB serial port. Turn on power to the host system. Keyboard Wedge Host Connections Turn off power to the host system. Disconnect the keyboard from the host system.
STABLISHING OMMUNICATION Between the Scanner and the Access Point Device To establish communication between the scanner and access point device: Connect the access point device to the host system (see pages 5 - 6). Scan the address bar code on the access point device to establish a communication connection between the scanner and the access point device.
CCESS OINT EVICE Page/Disconnect Button The access point has a button located on the top of the device that can be used to either page the scanner or disconnect the communication link between the scanner and the access point. The page and disconnect button features are not supported in CodeXML protocol mode.
ONFIGURATION The following information is for replacement applications or situations requiring scanner reconfiguration. Some of the configuration procedures require the user to scan the recall defaults bar code. If the recall defaults code is scanned, the scanner’s factory pre-configurations and custom configurations will be lost. The scanner will need to be reconfigured in order to work with the access point device.
ONFIGURATION CodeXML Protocol Compatibility The CodeXML protocol does not support page/disconnect button functions, or scanner firmware upgrades through the access point device and Metroset2. When a scanner is using the CodeXML protocol, configuration data is stored in the scanner. The stored data is not transmitted to the access point device. Special configuration steps are required for the customization of system formats and protocols.
ONFIGURATION Access Point Device Configuration in CodeXML Mode When a scanner is using the CodeXML protocol all configuration data is stored in the scanner. Since the data is not transmitted to the access point device, the following process is required to configure the device for custom system formats or protocol requirements.

PLOADING AND Uploading Settings via MetroSet2 † The upload feature in MetroSet2 allows the user to retrieve the current software number and configuration settings of an access point device connected to a personal computer. To upload settings via MetroSet2: Verify the access point device is connected to the host system and a communication link has been established with a scanner.
PLOADING AND Downloading Settings via MetroSet2 † The download feature in MetroSet2 allows the user to download custom configuration settings selected in MetroSet2 to the access point and the linked ‡ scanner To download settings via MetroSet2: Verify the access point device is connected to the host system and a communication link has been established with a scanner.
PGRADING THE Upgrading the Firmware in the Access Point Device The access point device is part of Metrologic's product series with flash upgradeable firmware. The upgrade process requires, a new firmware file supplied to the customer by a customer service representative and Metrologic's MetroSet2 software .
PGRADING THE Upgrading FocusBT Firmware via the Access Point Device With MetroSet2, scanner firmware upgrades can be accomplished through the communication link between the access point device and scanner. This feature is not supported in scanners using the CodeXML protocol. The scanner must be in Metro protocol mode.
