INTRODUCTION
Metrologic’s MS700i, MS720i, TECH 7, TECH 8, TECH 10, and MS800 laser
bar code scanners are all programmable through ScanSet®, a software
package designed by Metrologic, which runs from a MS-DOS environment.
With ScanSet, the scanner or upload scanner setups can be programmed
without the need to scan any bar codes.
®
• ScanSet software diskette
• MS-DOS, IBM PC XT, AT or PS/2 compatible
• RS-232C serial port
• One of Metrologic’s MS700i, MS720i, TECH 7, TECH 8, TECH 10, or
MS800 laser bar code scanners with an appropriate RS-232 cable setup
1
STARTING THE SCANSET® PROGRAM
Before using ScanSet, make a backup copy of the diskette. Run the
ScanSet program from the floppy disk provided or copy the file to the hard
disk. For ease of use, create a separate directory on the PC’s hard disk
drive and then copy the contents of the ScanSet diskette to that directory.
Access the drive the diskette is on and at the prompt type go. This will
activate the README.1ST file. The README.1ST file contains and
describes all the programs and document files for ScanSet.
To become familiar with the ScanSet program, access the ScanSet program
diskette and review the menus discussed on the following pages before
entering program mode.
Note: If there is difficulty seeing the highlighted menu choices when using
a monochrome monitor, quit and restart the program by typing
A:SCANSET/B at the DOS prompt.
2
USING SCANSET MENUS
All of the choices that are accessible to configure the scanner are available
through pop-up windows that appear when <ENTER> is pressed at any of
the vertical menus within the Configuration Screen. At the main menu,
highlight Load Defaults and press <ENTER> to view the Configuration
Screen.
• Use the <TAB>, <×>, <Ø>, <Ö>,or <Õ>, arrow keys to move the
highlight to the desired menu choice.
2. Use the following method to select the item(s) from the pop-up menu:
• Use the <PgUp>, <PgDn>, <×> or <Ø> arrow keys to position the
cursor on the desired menu choice.
3
THE SCANSET MAIN MENU
The following is a brief description of the menu choices available from the
ScanSet Main Menu as illustrated below.
4
THE SCANSET MAIN MENU
Exit Program Mode This option will cause the scanner to exit program
mode. To show a successful exit from program
mode, the scanner will beep twice and the red
LED will turn off and the green LED will turn on.
5
THE CONFIGURATION SCREEN MENU
By choosing any of the first four choices from the ScanSet Main Menu, a
menu screen called the Configuration Screen can be accessed. This screen
divides into several sections and show different parameters depending upon
which main menu option is chosen. The following sections describe the
default parameters (i.e., Selecting Load Defaults from the Main Menu).
However, no matter which option is chosen from the Main Menu,
customizing the scanner’s configurations can be done through the
Configuration Screen.
The following keys are the ones mostly used to perform various functions
within the configuration screen. The <ENTER> key displays a list of options
for a given vertical field within the Configuration Screen. To select a Main
Menu screen choice, position the cursor on the desired field and then press
enter. This key will also close a pop-up window menu. The <SPACEBAR>
key can enable or disable an option. To enable or disable an option,
position the cursor on the menu choice and press the <SPACEBAR> key.
When an option is enabled, a check mark appears within the brackets. To
escape while in a vertical menu without saving any changed options use the
<ESC> key.
Note: The scanner does not currently support all options listed within the
Configuration Screen. This documentation notes any options the
scanner does not support.

THE CONFIGURATION SCREEN MENU
7
THE CONFIGURATION SCREEN MENU
Tech This section provides the selection of various parameters
that can be used with the MX001 Industrial Control
Interface box. The Tech section cannot be accessed
unless SCANSET/T is typed at the DOS prompt. Only
select options from this menu when the scanner contains
the proper internal interface board and is using external
support circuitry. If the scanner does not contain the
special interface board, the scanner may become
inoperative (lock up) by choosing options from this
menu.
Depth of Field This section provides the selection of the optimum scan
range that the scanner should operate in. However, do
not change this setting unless instructed to do so by
Metrologic.
Formatting This section provides the option of selecting the output for
UPC/EAN/JAN bar codes and transmission formats for
Non-UPC scanned data. Available formatting options may
depend upon which interface is being used.
TimeOut This section allows the selection of how much time after
scanning that the scanner will remain active before it will
go into standby/shutdown mode. After entering standby
mode, the scanner can be reactivated by the IR sensor or
the touchplate.
8
TROUBLESHOOTING
The following are some helpful hints to remember when using the ScanSet
program:
• ScanSet will not store the settings changed in the Configuration Screen
unless <F7> Save Parameters is pressed. To save the changes, do
not return to the Main Menu. Once <F9> is pressed, Exit and Return to
Main Menu, modifications will be lost.
• Select the interface to use before making any other changes in the
Configuration Screen. Once the desired interface is selected, any
modifications made within the Configuration Screen will automatically
revert to the default settings of that interface.
• When trying to enter program mode and ScanSet displays the prompt
message, “Scanner did not respond within the specified time press any
key to continue”, communications could not establish. Check for proper
cable hookup and make sure the correct COM port was designated.
Before trying to enter program mode again, power down and power up
the unit.
The only menu selection where this time out does not occur while within
the Configuration Sheet is the Get Scanner Settings menu. When this
menu option is chosen, ScanSet permanently establishes
communications with the scanner. The scanner will not exit the
program mode until <F5> Program Scanner is pressed or Exit
Program Mode is chosen from the Main Menu.
• When the scanner enters program mode, the red LED turns on.
However, the red LED will turn off and the scanner will beep twice when
the time out occurs and when the scanner exits program mode. In
addition, the scanner will also beep twice after it has been successfully
programmed and exits ScanSet.

TROUBLESHOOTING
• The only way to access the Tech menu is by typing SCANSET/T at the
DOS prompt and pressing <ENTER>. Do not choose options from the
Tech menu unless the proper internal interface board is inside the
scanner with other necessary external support circuitry. If these
required items are not present, the scanner will become inoperative
(lock up) by choosing option from this menu.
• If the diskette where the SERIAL PROGRAM MODE bar code is located
is lost, here is a second copy of the bar code:
0 12345 99999 4
