UPGRADING THE FIRMWARE The Voyager series is part of Metrologic's line of scanners with flash upgradeable firmware. The upgrade process requires a new firmware file supplied to the customer by a customer service representative and Metrologic's MetroSet2 software . A personal computer running Windows 95 or greater with an available RS232 serial or USB port is required to complete the upgrade. Do not use the standard cable supplied with Keyboard Wedge or RS485 interface kits for firmware upgrades. Use either cable #54-54014x or #53-53014x. If using USB or RS232 for the upgrade process, the standard USB or RS232 cable provided with the scanner can be used. To upgrade the firmware in the MS9520/MS9540: 1. Plug the scanner into a serial communication port on the host system. 2. Start the MetroSet2 software. 3. Click on the plus sign (+) next to POS Scanners to expand the supported scanner list. 4.
