Connecting the IEEE1394 (FireWire) cable
The scanner is supplied with an IEEE 1394 (FireWire) cable. Up to 63 devices can be attached to
a computer using this interface. However, the number of devices is limited to 16 when using a
daisy-chain configuration.
The computer and all peripheral devices must be off
before connecting the scanner.
Set dip switch number 4 to the off position to
active the IEEE ports. Switch 4 must be
moved to the on position if a SCSI cable is
used.
Connect the scanner to the computer or
IEEE peripheral chain with the cable. Either
IEEE port can be used for the connection.
Plug the power cord into the back of the unit.
The other end of the power cord should be
plugged into a grounded outlet.
Auto Power Save
The scanner automatically turns the scan-
ning light source off during long periods of
inactivity to save energy and preserve the life
of the fluorescent tube. Though not recom-
mended, the auto-power-save function can
be disabled by setting dip switch number 2 to
the off position.
