Scanner Connections to the Host
In order for the TECH 10 scanner to maintain compliance with applicable
standards, all circuits connected to the scanner (Example: power supply, host
system, etc.) must meet the requirements for SELV (Safety Extra Low
Voltage) according to EN60950.
To avoid potential problems, do not power up the scanner until the
communication cable is secured to the host.
1. Turn off the host system.
2. Locate the 19-pin female end of the scanner link cable and find the
widest key located above pins L and A. Align this key with the
corresponding key on the scanner box’s Mil spec connector. While
pushing in on the connector, rotate the ring clockwise until it locks into
place with a click.
3. Connect the other end of the communication cable to the host device. (If
the scanner will not receive power from a transformer, skip to Step 6.)
4. If the scanner will receive power from an external power source, check
the AC input requirements of the transformer to make sure the voltage
matches the AC outlet. (A socket-outlet can be installed near the
equipment and can be easily accessible.)
5. Plug the transformer into the AC outlet to supply the power to the
scanner.
6. Power up the host system.
7. Scan a few items to verify that data is being properly transmitted
between the scanner and the host device.
