3 Installation on the Macintosh

This section provides information on installing the ArtixScan 2020 on the Macintosh. The procedures are divided into two main sections: 1) Installation for Macintosh computers that feature built-in SCSI ports; and 2) Installation for the new Macintosh G3 computers (with no SCSI ports). For the new G3 computers, you will be installing the SCSI interface card included in the scanner package.

A. Installation for Macintosh computers with built-in SCSI ports

1. Connecting the scanner

1.Shut down your computer.

2.Connect the scanner to your computer, using the SCSI cable provided in the scanner package.

Note: See the next section for details on termination.

3.Plug the power cord to the power connector at the back panel of the scanner, and plug the other end of the power cord to your AC power source or wall outlet.

4.Turn on your scanner and wait for all the lights on the front panel to stop blinking and stay on steady.

2. Termination

A terminator is included in your scanner package and should be installed on your scanner in the following situations:

•If the scanner is the only SCSI device in your SCSI chain; or

•If you are daisy chaining the scanner with other SCSI devices AND the scanner is the last device in your SCSI chain.

Normally, a terminator is not required is when the scanner is part of a daisy chain and is NOT the last device in the SCSI chain.

To install the terminator, plug it into the SCSI port at the back of the scanner (beside the cable connecting the scanner to the computer).

5.Power up your Macintosh.
