Connecting the Cables
The following describes how to connect the cables
between the scanner and your computer.
1.
Make sure that the computer is turned
OFF.
2.
Connect the scanner to your computer
either with a USB or SCSI cable.
The following describes the requirements for
connecting with the respective cables.
z
USB cable
-Be sure to use the USB cable which comes
as an accessory with this scanner.
-When connecting to an USB hub, use the
first stage USB hub that is closest to the
computer. If you use the second or later hub
stages, the scanner may not operate cor-
rectly.
-If you connect the scanner with USB 2.0, it
is required that the USB port and the hub be
compliant with USB 2.0. The scanning
speed slows down when you connect the
scanner with USB 1.1.
z
SCSI cable
-When using the scanner with a SCSI inter-
face, the following types of SCSI cable and
SCSI card must be purchased.
SCSI cable:
Use a SCSI cable whose connector on the
computer side mates to the connector on
the SCSI card installed on your computer.
On the scanner side, use either of the fol-
lowing SCSI cable types depending on the
connector (1 or 2) used:
SCSI Connector 1: 50-pin high-density type
SCSI Connector 2: 68-pin high-density type
SCSI card:
Find the recommended SCSI card informa-
tion on the Fujitsu website (FAQ):
puting/peripheral/scanners/scsi/
-In a SCSI daisy chain formation, connect
the scanner so that it is the terminated
device.
-The SCSI ID initially set at the factory is [5].
If the SCSI ID of another SCSI device is set
to the same ID, change the scanner's SCSI
ID to [0] through [6].
3.
Connect the power cable to the power
connector of your scanner and to the
power outlet.
z
You cannot make both USB and
SCSI cable connections at the
same time.
z
You cannot connect multiple
computers to the scanner at the
same time.
z
To scan using TWAIN/ISIS, connect
the cable to USB Connector 1 or
SCSI Connector 1 on the scanner.
To scan using Kofax VRS, connect
the cable to USB Connector 2 or
SCSI Connector 2 on the scanner.
z
Turn off the scanner and your
computer whenever you switch the
interface cable.
