PARTS OF THE SCANNER Becoming familiar with the features of the TECH 10® scanner will help when operating the scanner. The following
illustration and list explain the pertinent parts.
Figure 1
1. Green and Red LEDs When the green LED is on, this shows that the unit is receiving power and the
laser is on. When the red LED flashes on, the scanner has read a bar code
successfully. When the red light turns off, communication to the host is complete.
2. Laser Output Window Laser light is emitted from this aperture.
3. Mil spec Connector This is a 19-pin male Mil spec connector. It is used to connect the scanner to a
host device by using a communication cable with a female Mil spec connector.
The communication cable may include a power transformer or it may be designed
to draw power directly from the host device. The standard TECH 10 only contains
one connector. If the scanner is being used with the MX001 box, then there will
be two Mil spec connectors on the unit.
