Cable Installation and Removal Installation Insert the cable’s modular connector into the socket on the scanner. Pull gently on the cable strain relief to ensure the cable is installed. Note: If the PowerLink cable is not fully latched, the unit can power intermittently.
Installation RS232, Light Pen or Laser Emulation Turn off the host system. Plug the male, 10-pin RJ45 end of the PowerLink cable into the 10-pin socket on the MS5145. Connect the 9-pin female end of the PowerLink cable to the appropriate communication port on the host device.
RS485 Turn off the host system. Plug the male 10-pin RJ45 end of the MVC cable into the 10-pin socket on the MS5145. Connect the other end of the MVC cable to Port 9 of the host device. Turn on the host device Figure 6.
Keyboard Wedge Turn off the host system. Plug the male, 10-pin RJ45 end of the PowerLink cable into the 10-pin socket on the MS5145. Disconnect the keyboard from the host/PC. Connect the Y ends of the PowerLink cable to the keyboard and the host’s keyboard port.
Stand-Alone Keyboard Turn off the host system. Connect the 10-pin RJ45 male connector into the jack on the Eclipse. There will be a ‘click’ when the connection is made. Connect the L-shaped plug of the power supply into the power jack on the PowerLink cable.
USB: Low Speed USB (-38) Full Speed USB (-40) Turn off the host system. Connect the 10-pin RJ45 male connector of the USB cable into the jack on the Eclipse. There will be a ‘click’ when the connection is made. Connect the other end of the USB cable to the host USB port.

Audible Indicators When the MS5145 scanner is operational, the scanner provides audible feedback to indicate the status of the scanner and the last scan. Eight settings are available for the tone of the beep (normal, six alternate tones and no tone). For instructions on how to change the tone of the beeper, refer to the Single-Line MetroSelect Configuration Guide.
Visual Indicators The MS5145 is equipped with a red LED and green LED, which indicate the scanner’s state and the status of the current scan when the unit is in operation. Figure 12. LED Color and Location Green and Red LEDs Are Off The LEDs will not be illuminated if the scanner is not receiving power from the host or transformer.
Failure Modes One Razzberry Tone – On Power Up This indicates the scanner has experienced a laser or flipper subsystem failure. Return the unit for repair to an Authorized Service Center. Continuous Razzberry Tone with no LEDs If, upon power up, the scanner emits a continuous razzberry tone, then the scanner has an experienced an electronic failure.
