2.4 General Precautions
This product contains ESD sensitive components, or ‘Electrostatic Discharge’ sensitive electronic parts. Electrostatic
discharge is defined as the transfer of charge between bodies at different electrical potentials.
Electrostatic discharge has the ability to modify the electrical characteristics of a semiconductor device, possibly
degrading or even destroying it. Electrostatic discharge also may upset the normal operation of an electronic system,
causing equipment malfunction or failure.
Use of controls or adjustments or performance of procedures other than those specified herein may result in
hazardous radiation exposure. Under no circumstances should the customer attempt to service the scanner. Never
attempt to look at the laser beam, even if the scanner appears to be nonfunctional. Doing so could result in hazardous
radiation exposure.
The MS7320 unit is rated as a CLASS IIA laser product, as defined by The U.S. Federal Laser Product Performance
Standard (FLPPS): Title 21 of the Code of Federal Regulations; Part 1000; [Parts 1040.10 and 1040.11].
CLASS II: low power visible lasers, which emit above Class I levels but emitting a radiant power not above 1mW. The
concept is that the human aversion reaction to bright light will protect a person.
CLASS IIA is a special designation that is based upon a 1000 second exposure and applies only to lasers that are "not
intended for viewing" such as a supermarket laser scanner. These laser are emitting light in the visible wavelengths (0.4
to 0.7 mm) with power not above 1mW.

7 TROUBLESHOOTING
One Beep
When the scanner first receives power, 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 ready to scan.
When the scanner successfully reads a bar code, the red LED will flash and the scanner beeps
once (if programmed to do so). If the scanner does not beep once and the green light does not
flash, then the bar code has not been successfully read.
Razzberry Tone
During operation of the scanner, the red LED will flash while the scanner simultaneously
beeps three times (while going into programming mode). The red LED will continue to flash
until the unit exits program mode. Upon exiting program mode, the scanner will beep three
times and the red LED will stop flashing.
When configured, 3 beeps can also indicate a communications timeout during normal
scanning mode.
When using one-code-programming, the scanner will beep three times (the current selected
tone), followed by a short pause then by a high tone and a low tone. This tells the user that
the single configuration bar code has successfully configured the scanner.
Three beeps will also occur during a manual adjustment of the beeper tone. With each short
depression of the Multi-Function Button, the new tone will be heard, followed by a short
pause then two more of the new current tones.
7-7
7.2 VISUAL INDICATORS
There is a red LED and amber LED on the front of the MS7600. When the scanner is on, the flashing or constant
illumination of the LEDs indicates the status of the current scan and the scanner.
The LEDs will not be illuminated if the scanner is not receiving power from the host or
transformer.
Steady Amber
When the laser is active, the green LED is illuminated. The green LED will remain
illuminated until the laser is deactivated.
When the scanner successfully reads a bar code, the red LED will flash and the scanner will
beep once. If the red LED does not flash or the scanner does not beep once, then the bar code
has not been successfully read.
After a successful scan, 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.
This indicates the scanner is in program mode. A razzberry tone indicates that an invalid bar
code has been scanned in this mode.
Or
If the unit is in sleep mode, each LED will flash once every 15
seconds.
This indicates the scanner may be waiting for communication from the host.
7-8
7.3 FAILURE MODES
This indicates the scanner has experienced a laser subsystem failure. Return the unit for
repair at an authorized service center.
This indicates the scanner has experienced a motor failure. Return the unit for repair at an
authorized service center.
If, upon power up, the scanner emits a continuous razzberry tone, then the scanner has an
electronic failure. Return the unit for repair at an authorized service center.
If the scanner beeps 3 times on power up then, the nonvolatile memory that holds the scanner
configuration has failed. Return the unit for repair at an authorized service center.
