UPGRADING THE FIRMWARE
The MS3780 Fusion is part of Honeywell’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 Honeywell’s
MetroSet2 software
. A personal computer running Windows 95 or greater with
an available RS232 serial or USB port is also required to complete the upgrade.
PowerLink Cable #54-54014 is required when using RS232 for the
upgrade process. Do not use the standard cable supplied with
keyboard wedge or RS485 scanner interface kits. If using USB for the
