INTRODUCTION  
The MS5145 Eclipseis a single-line, hand-held laser scanner.  
Equipped with Honeywell’s patented CodeGate® technology, Eclipse can be  
used in a wide variety of applications. CodeGate technology allows the user to  
easily target the desired bar code and complete the data transmission with a  
simple press of a button. This combination makes Eclipse a perfect selection for  
menu scanning, point-of-sale, document processing and inventory control.  
With state-of-the-art scanning technology embedded inside, the MS5145 Eclipse  
has a longer working range and a wider scan field than a typical CCD. The width  
of the scan line grows as the scanner moves further away from bar codes. In  
addition, the laser beam pulses, making lining up bar codes easy and when the  
scanner senses a bar code (CodeSense® Mode), the laser beam automatically  
switches to scan mode and activates CodeGate to ensure high-speed scanning  
and accuracy.  
Many standard features are included such as: user configurable Flash ROM,  
PowerLink user-replaceable cables, MetroSet®2 and MetroSelect® configuration,  
and data editing (parsing).

SCANNER OPERATION  
Indicators  
Audible  
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.  
One Beep – On Power Up  
The green LED will turn on, then the red LED will flash and the scanner will  
beep once. The red LED will remain on for the duration of the beep. The  
scanner is now ready to scan.  
One Beep – During Operation  
When the scanner successfully reads a bar code, the red LED will flash and  
the scanner will beep once (if programmed to do so). If the scanner does not  
beep once and the red light does not flash, then the bar code has not been  
successfully read.  
Three Beeps – During Operation  
When entering the configuration mode, the red LED will flash while the scanner  
simultaneously beeps three times. The red LED will continue to flash until the  
unit exits configuration mode. Upon exiting configuration mode, the scanner  
will beep three times and the red LED will stop flashing.  
When configured for communication timeout, three beeps during operation will  
indicate that a communication timeout has occurred.  
Three Beeps – On Power Up  
This is a failure indicator. Refer to the Failure Modes section of this guide on  
page 15.  
Razzberry Tone  
This is a failure indicator or an invalid code read during configuration mode.  
Refer to the Failure Modes section of this guide on page 15.

SCANNER OPERATION  
Indicators  
Visual  
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 13. 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.  
Steady Green  
Indicates normal pulse or continuous laser operation. Accompanied by a  
razzberry tone, it indicates that an invalid bar code has been scanned.  
Flashing Green  
After a period of inactivity, the ON time of the pulsing laser will be shortened.  
During this time the green LED will flash. This indicates that the scanner is in  
a power saver mode. When a bar code enters the laser field, the scanner will  
wake up and return to normal pulse mode.  
Steady Green and Single Red Flash  
When the scanner successfully reads a bar code, the red LED will flash and  
the scanner will beep. If the red LED does not flash and the scanner does not  
beep, then the bar code has not been successfully read.  
Steady Green and Steady Red  
After a successful read, the scanner transmits the data to the host device.  
Some communication modes require that the host inform the scanner when  
data is ready to be received. If the host is not ready to accept the information,  
the scanner’s red LED will remain on until the data can be transmitted.  
Steady Green and Continuous Flashing Red  
When entering the configuration mode, the red LED will flash, the green LED  
will turn on and the scanner will beep three times. The red LED will continue to  
flash and the green LED will stay on until the unit exits the configuration mode.

SCANNER OPERATION  
Indicators  
Failure  
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. Return the unit for repair to  
an Authorized Service Center.  
Three Beeps – On Power Up  
If the scanner beeps three times on power up, then the non-volatile memory  
(NovRAM) that holds the scanner configuration has failed. Return the unit for  
repair to an Authorized Service Center.

SCANNER OPERATION  
Configuration Modes  
The MS5145 Eclipse has three modes of configuration.  
Bar Codes  
The Eclipse can be configured by scanning the bar codes located in the  
MetroSelect® Single-Line Configuration Guide (MLPN 00-02544). This  
MetroSet®2  
This user-friendly Windows-based configuration software allows the user to  
simply ‘point-and-click’ at the desired scanner options. This software can be  
ordered by calling a customer service representative, see page 44.  
Serial Configuration  
This mode of configuration is ideal for OEM applications. This mode gives  
the end-user the ability to send a series of commands using the serial port of  
the host system. The commands are equivalent to the numerical values of  
the bar codes located in the MetroSelect Single-Line Configuration Guide  
(MLPN 00-02544).  
How does Serial Configuration work?  
1. Each command sent to the scanner is the ASCII representation of each  
numeral in the configuration bar code. The entire numeric string is framed  
with an ASCII [stx] and an ASCII [etx].  
EXAMPLE #1:  
Command for Disabling Codabar  
Command = [stx]100104[etx]  
String Sent to Scanner = 02h 31h 30h 30h 31h 30h 34h 03h  
(All values are hexadecimal).  
2. If the command sent to the scanner is valid, the scanner will respond with an  
[ack].  
3. If the command sent to the scanner in invalid, the scanner will respond with  
a [nak].  
Note: If this occurs, the end-user must start over at the very beginning of  
the configuration sequence. Re-transmitting the invalid command  
will not work. The user must start over.

SCANNER OPERATION  
4. During configuration, the motor and laser turn off. YOU CANNOT SCAN A  
BAR CODE WHILE IN SERIAL CONFIGURATION MODE.  
5. There is a 20 second window between commands. If a 20 second timeout  
occurs, the scanner will send a [nak] and you must start over.  
6. To enter serial configuration mode, send the following command  
[stx]999999[etx].  
7. To exit serial configuration mode, send the following command  
[stx]999999[etx], the scanner will respond with an [ack] followed by 3 beeps.  
8. This mode uses the current Baud Rate, Parity, Stop Bits and Data Bits  
settings that are configured in the scanner. The default settings of the  
scanner are 9600, Space, 2, 7 respectively. If a command is sent to the  
scanner to change any of these settings, the change will NOT take effect  
until after serial configuration mode is exited.  
EXAMPLE #2:  
The following example will set the scanner to the factory default settings,  
Disable Scanning of Code 128 bar codes, change the beeper tone, and add  
a “G” as a configurable prefix.

The commands sent to the scanner do not include the small superscripted  
three ( 3 ) that you see in front of each bar code string in the MetroSelect  
manual. THE THREE ( 3 ) SHOULD NOT BE SENT. IT IS A CODE TYPE  
DESIGNATION ONLY!  
For commands requiring additional bar codes to be scanned (such as  
prefixes, suffixes, timeouts, etc.), simply send the code bytes in the same  
order that you would normally scan the bar codes.

Exit Configuration Mode  
The scanner will beep three times!  
This example illustrates two important points.  
First, if an invalid command is sent from the host, the scanner responds with  
a [nak] and the end-user must start over from the beginning.  
Second, if a command is sent to change the Baud Rate, the new baud rate  
does not take effect until after the end-user exits configuration mode.

RS232 DEMONSTRATION PROGRAM  
If an RS232 scanner is not communicating with your IBM compatible PC, key in  
the following BASIC program to test that the communication port and scanner are  
working.  
This program is for demonstration purposes only. It is only intended to prove that  
cabling is correct, the COM port is working, and the scanner is working. If the bar  
code data displays on the screen while using this program, it only demonstrates  
that the hardware interface and scanner are working. At this point, investigate  
whether the application software and the scanner configuration match.  
If the application does not support RS232 scanners, a software wedge program  
that will take RS232 data and place it into a keyboard buffer may be needed.  
This program tells the PC to ignore RTS-CTS, Data Set Ready (DSR) and Data  
Carrier Detect (DCD) signals. If the demonstration program works and yours still  
does not, jumper RTS to CTS and Data Terminal Reading (DTR) to DCD and  
DSR on the back of your PC.

Laser  
Laser Class 1: IEC 60825-1:1993+A1+A2,  
EN 60825-1:1994+A1+A2  
Caution  
Use of controls or adjustments or performance of procedures other than those specified  
herein may result in hazardous laser light exposure. Under no circumstances should the  
customer attempt to service the laser scanner. Never attempt to look at the laser beam, even  
if the scanner appears to be nonfunctional. Never open the scanner in an attempt to look into  
the device. Doing so could result in hazardous laser light exposure. The use of optical  
instruments with the laser equipment will increase eye hazard.  
Atención  
La modificación de los procedimientos, o la utilización de controles o ajustes distintos de los  
especificados aquí, pueden provocar una luz de láser peligrosa. Bajo ninguna circunstancia  
el usuario deberá realizar el mantenimiento del láser del escáner. Ni intentar mirar al haz  
del láser incluso cuando este no esté operativo. Tampoco deberá abrir el escáner para  
examinar el aparato. El hacerlo puede conllevar una exposición peligrosa a la luz de láser.  
El uso de instrumentos ópticos con el equipo láser puede incrementar el riesgo para la  
vista.  
Attention  
L'emploi de commandes, réglages ou procédés autres que ceux décrits ici peut entraîner de  
graves irradiations. Le client ne doit en aucun cas essayer d'entretenir lui-même le scanner  
ou le laser. Ne regardez jamais directement le rayon laser, même si vous croyez que le  
scanner est inactif. N'ouvrez jamais le scanner pour regarder dans l'appareil. Ce faisant,  
vous vous exposez à une rayonnement laser qú êst hazardous. L'emploi d'appareils  
optiques avec cet équipement laser augmente le risque d'endommagement de la vision.  
Achtung  
Die Verwendung anderer als der hier beschriebenen Steuerungen, Einstellungen oder  
Verfahren kann eine gefährliche Laserstrahlung hervorrufen. Der Kunde sollte unter keinen  
Umständen versuchen, den Laser-Scanner selbst zu warten. Sehen Sie niemals in den  
Laserstrahl, selbst wenn Sie glauben, daß der Scanner nicht aktiv ist. Öffnen Sie niemals  
den Scanner, um in das Gerät hineinzusehen. Wenn Sie dies tun, können Sie sich einer  
gefährlichen Laserstrahlung aussetzen. Der Einsatz optischer Geräte mit dieser  
Laserausrüstung erhöht das Risiko einer Sehschädigung.  
Attenzione  
L’utilizzo di sistemi di controllo, di regolazioni o di procedimenti diversi da quelli descritti nel  
presente Manuale può provocare delle esposizioni a raggi laser rischiose. Il cliente non  
deve assolutamente tentare di riparare egli stesso lo scanner laser. Non guardate mai il  
raggio laser, anche se credete che lo scanner non sia attivo. Non aprite mai lo scanner per  
guardare dentro l’apparecchio. Facendolo potete esporVi ad una esposizione laser  
rischiosa. L’uso di apparecchi ottici, equipaggiati con raggi laser, aumenta il rischio di  
danni alla vista..
