Connecting the open array scanner inter-unit cable

CAUTION:

Before wiring the scanner unit check that it is securely mounted to the platform, then make sure that the inter-unit cable is not connected and power is not applied to the display unit. The scanner switch must be in the OFF position.

1.Loosen the four self-retaining bolts securing the pedestal lid to the base. Pull-up and turn the bolts anti-clockwise to lock them in the upright position. Remove the lifting eyes.

Note: It is important to remove lifting eyes to avoid corrosion. Retain

the lifting eyes: they will be required if the scanner is removed from its platform.

2.Open the pedestal lid. Ensure the securing stay has automatically locked into position.
