Setting up your Scanner
Before connecting your new scanner, please shut down your machine.
To setup your new wireless linear imager, connect the USB interface cable into the 15 pin D-
connector on the back of the cradle. Plug the other end of the interface cable into an open USB port
on your computer. Next, connect the power supply adapter to the power cord and plug the two-
pronged plug into your wall outlet or power strip. Connect the metal tipped plug on the power
supply adapter into the cradle. Turn on your computer and log in. You are now ready to configure
your scanner and base.
NOTE FOR MACINTOSH USERS:
OS X detects the scanner as a keyboard and prompts you to help it configure your new device. If
you see a window prompting you to set up your keyboard, please close it.
