Metrologic’s MX003 Series Scanner Interfaces provide a short range, one-
way wireless data communication link between a remote portable scanner
and an RS-232 or light pen host device. Specifically, Metrologic’s MS6130
Hand-Held Laser Scanners include a Liberty
® RF transmitter board.
Metrologic’s MS700i/MS720i series scanners, TECH series scanners may
be connected to a MX Series scanner interface. The “MX” scanner interface
includes a RF receiver and a digital interface board.
The MS6130 scanner provides two functions:
• Scans and decodes bar codes
• Transmits scanned data to the RF receiver or “MX”
When the “MX” interface is connected to a ScanPal ® or host device such as
a portable data terminal (PDT), it provides two functions
(For example, refer to Figure 1):
• Performs the RF receiver function; for example, beeps to show it has
received data from the transmitter
• Communicates with the host device
In this manual, MX003 series scanner interfaces may be referred to as the
“MX”, “MX” interface or receiver. Suffix of the MX003 model designation will
vary due to country of usage.
