Introduction Chapter 1 of colors available. Thousands or millions of colors will provide an excellent display of your image. If your system only supports a maximum of256 colors you will see a 'dithered' image, which looks 'soft.' The monitor setting has no effect on the actual quality of your image, which is always captured in 24-bit mode (16.7 million colors). • Color images occupy large amounts of disk space. So make sure your hard disk has sufficient free space to store the images you plan to scan.

Let's take a look at Coolscan's front panel, as shown in Figure 2.1. The uncomplicated design of the front panel is indicative of how simple Coolscan is to use.
Setting Up Cooiscan Chapter 2 Focus Wheel The focus wheeL is used to fine-focus during scanning operation. This control is provided because of the wide variery of film and film mounts available, which affect the focusing function of the scanner. The focus wheel must be in its center position during power up. The center position is indicated by the black line across the focus wheel being centered in the visible portion of the focus wheel.

Proper Placement The following guidelines and precautions should be adhered to when deciding on placement of your LS-l DE: 1. Place Coolscan near the computer so that the maximum suggested SCSI cable length (6 feet) is not exceeded. 2.
Setting Up Coolscan Chapter 2 8. Avoid places with extremely hot or cold temperatures (below 10 degrees Celsius or above 35 degrees Celsius). 9. Avoid placing Coolscan near heat sources. 10. Avoid any physical shocks to the scanner. Do not store the unit where it will be subject to vibration. 11. Avoid placing Coolscan too close to other peripherals, and make sure there is sufficient air circulation on all sides of the scanner.
I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I Chapter 2 Setting Up Coolscan Safety Precautions When Connecting AC Power to the LS-l0E The following precautions should be complied with when connecting AC power to the scanner: 1. Always use a proper power source of 100 to 240V AC, 50 to 60 Hz. 2. Do not hold the cord itself when plugging or unplugging the AC power. Hold the plastic portion of the connector itself rather than pulling on the cord. 3.
Setting Up Cooiscan Chapter 2 4. Never disassemble the scanner. It is very dangerous to touch the devices inside the unit due to high voltages, and there are no user serviceable parts inside. Such action may be a violation of your Nikon Limited Warranty, and would render the warranty null and void. General Safety Precautions Always power off Coolscan and/or remove the power cord from the AC source when anyone of the following occurs: 1.
I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I Chapter 2 Setting Up Cooiscan Installation Precautions The following guidelines should be observed when installing Coolscan: 1. Make certain that power to all instruments directly connected to Cools can (via SCSI) is turned off before beginning the installation. This includes the AC power switch on Coolscan (LS-I0E only). If yo u are installing an L5-1 0, there is no AC power switch since it relies on the PC's power. Therefore, make sure that the PC's power is off. 2.

I Chapter 3 The SCSI Interface I The SCSI Interface I I I I I I I I I I I I I The computer interface used exclusively with Cools can is called a Small Computer System Interface (SCSI - pronounced 'scuzzy'). This interface has been adopted as a standard in the PC computing environment and is utilized by many computer devices, including disk drives, scanners, printers and CD-ROM drives.
The SCSI Interface Chapter 3 The default SCSIID number of Coolscan, set at the factory, is ID #5. Determining Which SCSI ID Number to Use If Coolscan is the only SCSI device that will sit on the SCSI bus, there is no need to change the SCSI ID number from the factory setting. If Coolscan must share the SCSI bus with one or more other SCSI devices, it is necessary to ensure that no twO devices are using the same SCSI ID number. Create a list of all SCSI devices (See Table 3.
I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I Chapter 3 The SCSI Interface Setting the SCSI ID - LS-l OE If necessary, the SCSI 10 number of the LS-1 OE can be set via a switch on the back of the scanner, as shown in Figure 3.1 . Simply push the bunon above the SCSI 10 number indicator to decrement the SCSI 10 number. Conversely, push the lower button to increment the SCSI 10 number. Top Bu lton (push to decrement) SCSIID Switch SCSIID # Indica tor .

SCSI 10 #5 indicates factory default setting. Terminating the SCSI Chain T he SCSI chain is the electrical bus connecting two or more SCSI devices.
I I I Chapter 3 Terminating the LS· l0E The LS-1 OE is configured with two 50-pin SCSI connectors on the rear of the unit, as shown in Figure 3.3. Install the standard 50-pin SCSI terminator included with Coolscan, onto the bottom connector if termination is desired. If you would like Coolscan to reside in the center of the SCSI chain, then by necessity, the bottom connector will be used for a SCSI to SCSI jumper cable. I I I I I I I I I I I I The SCSI Interface SCSI Terminator ~ Figure 3.
The SCSI Interface Chapter 3 If switch #4 is in the ON position, Coolscan is internally terminated. If switch #4 is in the OFF position (the factory default setting), Cools can is not internally terminated. These two settings are shown in Figure 3.4 above. SCSI Cables There are three basic types of SCSI cables that can be used with Coolscan. These are aliSO conductor cables, i.e. they have 50 contacts, or 'pins.' These three cables are described below.
I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I Chapter 3 The SCSI Interface Please proceed to the section The PC's External SCSI Connector. SCSI Cables Used With the LS-l 0 The SCSI flat cable provided with the L5-10 enables you to connect the scanner to the PC's SCSI chain as either the only device on the SCSI bus, or as an additional device. This is a chainable SCSI flat cable with two identical crimped connectors on each end and one connector crimped in the center, as seen in Figure 3.6a.

The SCSI Interface Chapter 3 The SCSI Chain The SCSI chain, as you learned earlier, is the electronic data and control bus that connects two or more SCSI devices. The SCSI bus is the 'data highway' and the SCSI devices linked together forming the SCSI chain represent 'stops' on the highway. As mentioned at the start of this chapter, the SCSI chain can accommodate up to eight devices on the SCSI bus. On any SCSI bus, there must be at least one SCSI host and one SCSI target device.
I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I Chapter 3 The SCSI Interface External SCSI Connector Figure 3.11 The installation-relevant components of the SCSI controller card provided with Coolscan. Do not attempt to insert this card into a microchanncl bus slot. If you need a microchanncl bus card, the T-228 is the equivalent to the T-130. The card provided is completely compatible with Coolscan and should be easy to install.
The SCSI Interface Chapter 3 Selling the SCSI Controller Card Configuration The DIP switches, shown in Figure 3.11 are used to set the I/O address for the SCSI host card. I/O Address 350h 340h 250h 240h SW1 OFF OFF ON ON SW2 OFF ON OFF ON Table 3.3 The SCSI controller card's configuration block switch settings. Please note the following, regarding the SCSI controller card configuration: • A single 8k address range beginning at the address selected is used.
I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I Chapter 3 The SCSI Interface Installing the SCSI Controller Card Into the Computer Installing the SCSI controller card is not difficult, but requires some manual dexterity. Usually the only tool required is a Phillips head screwdriver. Following is a stepby-step procedure for installing the SCSI controller card. Step 1. Power off the computer and unplug its AC power connector.
The SCSI Interface Chapter 3 Remove the lock down screw and slot cover plate at the back of the computer associated with the selected card. Save this screw. It is used to lock down the SCSI controller card. Step 5. Insert the SCSI controller card into the selected slot. Carefully insert the card into the selected slot, making sure it is properly oriented (the component side of the card should face the same direction as the other cards in the computer) and aligned with the connector on the motherboard.
I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I Chapter 3 The SCSI Interface Setting Up the SCSI Chain - LS-l OE The LS-lOE can reside at any position in the SCSI chain. The two 50-pin connectors on the rear of Coolscan are both used for this purpose. There are essentially two possible SCSI chain configurations, the two SCSI devices configuration, and the multiple SCSI devices configuration. Connecting Two SCSI Devices In the simplest case, only two devices share the SCSI chain - the SCSI host and the SCSI target device.
The SCSI Interface Chapter 3 4. Connect a SCSI connector to the bottom SCSI connector on the back of Coolscan, since this is the end of the SCSI chain. In this case, both the SCSI host side of the bus and the SCSI target device side of the bus must be terminated, as shown in Figure 3.13. Connecting Multiple SCSI Devices In many cases, more than one SCSI target device will be connected to the SCSI bus.
I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I Chapter 3 The SCSI Interface 3. Insert one end of the unused SCSI cable into the top SCSI connector on the back of Coolscan. 4. Connect the other end of the unused SCSI cable to the free SCSI connector of the neighboring SCSI device. 5. Connect the SCSI terminator to the bottom SCSI connector on the back of Coolscan. It is equally possible to configure the SCSI chain with Coolscan in the center of the chain.

chapter for the proper DIP switch setting. Because the PC is at the other end of the chain, it also must be terminated. I I It is equally possible to configure the SCSI chain with Cools can in the center of the chain. In this case, the SCSI terminator would reside on the last device in the SCSI chain, as opposed to Coolscan. I The SCSI Interface Chapter 3 Important Information About the SCSI Interface There are several advantages and limitations to the SCSI interface which you should be aware of: 1.
I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I Chapter 3 The SCSI Interface length of all the SCSI cables used in the chain should not exceed 18 feet. A chain of more than 18 feet may result in lost data and 'lost' devices . • System performance can suffer as devices are added to the SCSI bus. This is related to the length of the SCSI chain. Data has a longer path to travel as more devices and cables are added to the SCSI chain, resulting in electrical instability and signal reflections.
