Installation
Connect the scanner to the host (terminal) using the interface (I/
F) cable as shown below. A cable from an older existing installa-
tion can be re-used if it uses Power Off the Terminal (POT),
unless it is a USB POT cable. If external power is used/needed,
plug the AC Adapter into the AC wall outlet, then connect it to
the I/F cable as shown in ‘b’ and ‘c’ of the illustration.
Scan some known-good bar code samples to verify correct opera-
tion. The scanner should beep and/or flash its good read LED
1
and send the bar code data to the host or terminal. If not, use the
Troubleshooting section of this guide to identify any problems.
Scanner installation is complete.
1. Be aware that beeper and LED behavior may have previously been configured
as “disabled” by another user.
