Connecting the scanner

Connect the scanner to your computer or to another SCSI device as described below.

Note:

The types of connectors needed on the SCSI interface cable varies depending on the

maker of your SCSI device and SCSI interface board.

1. Make sure the scanner, computer, and all other SCSI devices are turned off and

unplugged from the power source.

Caution:

Do not connect the scanner to the computer or other devices while they

are turned on as damage may occur.

2. Connect one end of the interface cable to one of the scanner SCSI connectors until

the locks on both sides snap in.

Note:

To connect the scanner to a SCSI device other than the computer, the length

of cable in the daisy chain must not exceed 6 meters; otherwise the system

may not work properly.

To connect the scanner to a PC using SCSI-2, the length of the cable must

not exceed 3 meters.

Make sure no other interface is used.

3. Connect the other end of the cable to the SCSI port of your computer or another

SCSI device.

Note:

The SCSI port on the Macintosh is the larger port with the SCSI icon over it.

4. Plug in the power cords of your computer, scanner, and other external SCSI devices.

Note:

Before turning on your system, be sure to read "Power-on sequence" following.
