MS100 Manual

INTRODUCTION
The MS100 is a family of pen style bar code readers specifically designed
to be a simple, unobtrusive method of scanning bar codes. The operation
is intuitive - simply swipe the MS100 across the bar code you want to read.
The MS100 comes in four interfaces: PS/2, RS232, USB, and TTL Wand,
described below.
Please note that pen bar code scanners might not recognize a given bar
code on the first swipe. All scanners may take several scans to recognize
a particular bar code, but whereas gun type bar code scanners can make
30 scans per second, making even repeated scans seem instantaneous,
pen scanners can only make one scan per swipe.
MS100
MS100A
The Undecoded (or TTL, or Wand) MS100A requires an external decoder
in order to communicate with your computer. Decoders are built into
Wedge devices and many POS (Point of Sale) keyboards, such as the
Unitech KP3700.
The MS100A cannot be configured via Scanner Configuration Manager.
Any modification of the output data must be done in the external decoder.
Normal Operation
MS100-2
The RS232 (Com Port) interface should only be used when your software
is designed to accept com port input. The MS100-2 has a built-in decoder
and outputs the scanned data in ASCII Code. MS100-2 input requires
special software such as HyperTerminal (Bits per second: 9600, Data bits: 8,
Parity: None, Stop bits: 1, Flow control: None) in order to view the output.
The MS100-2 will require an optional power supply unless your computer’s
com port supplies power (unlikely).
