Using Standard AC Power

To power the scanner from AC power, you need an AC adapter (Cat. No. 273-1665).

Cautions:

You must use an AC adapter that supplies 9 volts and delivers at least 200 milliamps. Its center tip must be set to negative, and its barrel plug must correctly fit the scanner’s PWR/DC 9V jack. The recommended adapter meets these specifications. Using an adapter that does not meet these specifications could damage the scanner or the adapter.

When you finish using the AC adapter, disconnect it from the AC outlet first. Then disconnect it from the scanner.

Plug the adapter’s 1.3 mm inner diameter/3.4 mm outer di- ameter barrel plug into the scanner’s PWR/DC 9V jack. Then plug the adapter’s power module into a standard AC outlet.

PWR/DC 9V

Warning: Do not use an AC adapter’s polarized plug with an extension cord, receptacle, or other outlet unless the blades can be fully inserted to prevent blade exposure.
