Connecting the Scanner to Your Computer
To make sure your scanner is working properly, it’s a good idea to turn it on before
you connect it to your computer. Open the scanner’s document cover so you can see
the operation of the lamp carriage, and press the
OPERATE
button.
As the scanner initializes, the OPERATE
light on the scanner’s front panel comes
on. After a few seconds, the READY light
comes on.
Once you know the scanner is working
properly, you can connect it to your
computer. Follow these steps:
1.
Turn off your scanner. Make sure the
computer and any SCSI devices
connected to your computer are
turned off.
2.
Connect the scanner to your computer
using the SCSI cable that came with
your scanner.
Squeeze the lock releases on the lock
connector end of the SCSI cable and plug
the cable into either SCSI connector on
the back of the scanner. The cable is
secure when both connector locks snap in.
3.
Connect the pin end of the SCSI cable to the SCSI port on your computer or
another SCSI device in the chain and tighten the screws to secure the cable.
If you’re connecting multiple SCSI devices, the total length of
the SCSI bus (cables) must not exceed 9.8 feet (3 meters);
otherwise the system may not work properly.
If you’re connecting the scanner directly to your computer,
don’t use a cable longer than 19.7 feet (6 meters).
Don’t use an external terminator.
