Step F: Connecting the Scanner.
Warning! Before proceeding ensure that the power is off when connecting or disconnecting the SCSI cable to the scanner or workstation. Failure to follow the procedure above could result in damage to the SCSI card, scanner, and/or your system.
The default SCSI ID setting for the 5000/4000 series scanners is 5 and for the 3000 series scanners is 6. However, selecting a different SCSI ID may be required when there are several devices on a SCSI chain. Changing the SCSI ID will vary depending on the model that you have. On some models you change the SCSI ID by accessing the scanner’s Setup Menu through the front panel. On other models you physically change the SCSI ID selector on the back of the unit. Please consult your user manual for which method to use with your model. Setting the SCSI ID to 0, 1, or 7 is NOT recommended as these settings are typically reserved for hard drives and the SCSI host adapter.
Next if the scanner is the last device (only device) on the SCSI chain then it must be terminated. If the scanner is not the last device on the SCSI chain, then the terminator should be removed or turned off before connecting it to the next SCSI device. Many models of our scanners have automatic termination built in. Some of our older models will require a plug in terminator (see figure below). Please consult your user manual for which method to use with your model.
