Replacing the Interface Cable

The standard interface cable is attached to the scanner with an 10-pin modular connector. When properly seated, the connector is held in the 3800g scanner’s handle by a flexible retention tab. The interface cable is designed to be field replaceable.

•Order replacement cables from Honeywell or from an authorized distributor.

•When ordering a replacement cable, specify the cable part number of the original interface cable.

To Replace the 3800g Interface Cable:

1. Turn the power to the host system OFF.

2. Disconnect the scanner’s cable from the terminal or computer.

3.Locate the small hole on the side of the scanner’s handle. This is the cable release.

4.Straighten one end of a paper clip.

5.Insert the end of the paper clip into the small hole and press in. This depresses the retention tab, releasing

the connector. Pull the connector out while maintaining pressure on the paper clip, then remove the paper clip.

6. Replace with the new cable.
