Unpacking
Your package should include a scanner, interface cable, User’s Man- ual, and a plastic scanner holder.
The unit should be inspected immediately upon receipt to determine if any damage has occurred during shipment. If damage has occurred, a claim should be filed with the carrier immediately.
Retain the shipping box, since it should be used to return the scanner to the factory for service.
Installation
Keyboard Wedge
In Keyboard Wedge mode the PSC scanner simulates keyboard key- strokes. Whether a person has pressed a key on the keyboard or data has been transmitted from the scanner is indistinguishable by the host device. When the PSC scanner is not transmitting data to the ter- minal the keyboard operates as if the PSC scanner was not attached.
Installation of the PSC scanner should be completed by a user who is familiar with installing computer systems and cabling.
Cable Installation
1.Turn off power to the terminal to which the PSC scanner will be connected.
2.Verify that you received the correct cabling. The cable sup- plied for keyboard wedge installation is referred to as a “Y” cable.
3.Connect the modular plug to the PSC scanner. Insert plug into the rectangular opening in the bottom of the scanner handle.
4.Unplug the keyboard from the terminal and replug the key- board into the short leg of the “Y” cable that mates with it.
5.Plug the remaining long leg of the “Y” cable into the terminal where the keyboard was connected.
6.Arrange the fully connected unit so that all cables run freely.
