MS-860-to-QX-870 Industrial Raster Scanner Transition Guide
The purpose of this document is to assist the user in transitioning from the MS-860 to the QX-870.
MS-860 scanners have been used in a wide variety of applications, including food packaging, electronics
manufacturing, automotive manufacturing, and other industrial environments. With the introduction of the
QX-870 Industrial Raster Scanner and the QX Platform, applications that have used the MS-860 have
the opportunity to simplify their connectivity, enhance their decode performance, and increase their
configuration flexibility by upgrading to the new system.
Important: The QX-870 is not a drop-in replacement for the MS-860, although MS-860 mounting can be used.
The following procedure is a streamlined way of converting an application from the MS-860 to the QX-870.
1. Be sure that the version of ESP Software on the host computer is ESP 5.2 or higher. ESP is available
on the Microscan Tools CD and in the Download Center at www.microscan.com.
2. Connect the MS-860 to the host computer, open ESP, and Receive Reader Settings from the MS-860.
Click the Send/Recv button to open
a dropdown menu showing the
Receive Reader Settings option.
3. Navigate to the Differences tab in ESP’s Utilities view and click the Differences from Default button.
A list of commands will appear in a table below the Difference from Default button.
4. Click the Save As button below the Differences from Default command table, and select the tab
delimited (*txt) file type when the Windows Save As dialog appears. Select the preferred location
for the file on the host hard drive and click Save.

5. Remove power and physically disconnect the MS-860, physically connect the QX-870, reapply
power using the QX-870 power supply, then Switch Model in ESP and select the QX-870 from the
model menu.
Click the Switch Model button to
open a dropdown menu showing
the New Model option.
6. Autoconnect to the QX-870.
7. Match the command settings in ESP’s QX-870 tree controls to the list of commands in the tab
delimited file that was created in Step 4. Refer to the MS-860-to-QX-870 Command Comparisons
table for a list of command equivalents between the MS-860 and QX-870.

8. Once all the command settings shown in the tab delimited text file are matched in ESP’s tree controls,
Send and Save the settings to the QX-870.
Click the Send/Recv button to
open a dropdown menu showing
the Save to Reader options.
9. Make additional configuration changes to the QX-870 as required by the application. Refer to the
QX-870 Industrial Raster Scanner User’s Manual for detailed information about scanner configuration.

MS-860-to-QX-870 Command Comparisons
The following table shows MS-860 commands on the left and QX-870 commands on the right. The name
of the command is shown first, and the parameters are shown to the right of the name.
Commands that have remained equivalent or near-equivalent from MS-860 to QX-870 are shown directly
opposite each other. Some MS-860 commands are not present in the QX-870, and some QX-870 commands
are new. This is indicated with gray boxes.

MS-860 and QX-870 Connectivity
There are significant hardware and connectivity differences between the MS-860 and QX-870. The diagrams
and parts list below demonstrate the difference between MS-860 and QX-870 hardware configuration.
Note: For other configurations, such as multidrop and daisy chain, refer to the configuration guides and
user’s manuals for the MS-860 and QX-870.
