SCANNER CONNECTIONS TO THE HOST To avoid potential problems, do not power up the scanner until the
communication cable is secured to the host
1. Turn off the host system.
2. Locate the 19-pin female end of the scanner link cable and find the widest key located above pins L and A.
Align this key with the corresponding key on the scanner box’s Mil spec connector. While pushing in on the
connector, rotate the ring clockwise until it locks into place with a click.
3. Connect the other end of the communication cable to the host device.
4. If the scanner will receive power from an external power source, check the AC input requirements of the
transformer to make sure the voltage matches the AC outlet. The outlet should be near the equipment and
easily accessible.
5. Plug the transformer into the AC outlet to supply the power to the scanner.
6. Power up the host system.
7. Scan a few items to verify that data is being properly transmitted between the scanner and the host device.
Caution:
To maintain compliance with applicable standards, all circuits connected to the scanner must meet
the requirements for SELV (Safety Extra Low Voltage) according to EN 60950.
To maintain compliance with standard CSA C22.2 No. 950/UL 1950 and norm EN 60950, the power
source should meet applicable performance requirements for a limited power source.
