Why does my Metrologic MS1690 Focus transmit each character twice?
This issue occurs when the configuration isn't set correctly. To resolve it, increase the interscan code delay setting and adjust whether the F0 break is transmitted. You may need to try this in both settings to find the correct configuration.
What to do if my Metrologic MS1690 Focus Barcode Reader powers up but doesn't beep?
If your Metrologic Barcode Reader powers up but doesn't beep when scanning a barcode, it's likely that the beeper is disabled, and no tone is selected. Enable the beeper and select a tone to fix this.
How to troubleshoot power issues with my Metrologic Barcode Reader?
If your Metrologic Barcode Reader isn't receiving power, check the transformer, outlet, and power strip. Also, ensure the cable is securely plugged into the scanner.
What to do if the print quality of the bar code is suspect using Metrologic MS1690 Focus Barcode Reader?
If you suspect the print quality of the barcode is causing issues with your Metrologic Barcode Reader, check the print mode and consider that the printer type could be the problem. Adjust the print settings; for example, switch between econo mode and high-speed mode.
