Chapter 2 Connecting to a Computer
CAUTION
◆ Connecting the SCSI Cable
■The SCSI cable should only be as long as the rating for the SCSI card being used. If
the SCSI cable is longer than the rated length, the scanner may not operate correctly.
■Before you connect the SCSI cable, make sure that the scanner and the computer
are turned OFF.
■Do not connect both SCSI and USB interface cables at the same time.
Connect your computer to the scanner using the SCSI cable.
Two SCSI connectors are located on the rear of the scanner. Insert the SCSI
cable from the computer into one of the connectors on the bottom of the scanner.
To connect another SCSI device to the computer, insert the other SCSI cable into
the vacant SCSI connector on the rear of the scanner, and connect the other end
of the SCSI cable into the SCSI device in a daisy chain.

(Cannot be used at the
same time a SCSI
connector is in use.)
◆ Attaching the Ferrite Core
When connecting to another SCSI device sequentially for use after connecting a
SCSI cable to the scanner in a daisy chain, attach the supplied ferrite core at the
specified location. (See "Location for attaching ferrite core," on p. 27.)
When connecting to another SCSI device sequentially after connecting a SCSI cable to
the scanner, be sure to attach the ferrite core to the SCSI cable. If you use the scanner
without attaching the ferrite core, radio wave interference may occur.
