VIDAR Film Digitizer Installation Guide
Operating
the SIERRA™ plus film digitizer
Apply power—then leave on continuously
If the film digitizer is already on and ready to scan (LED on the front of
the digitizer is green), then skip this section.
1. Assure the PC is turned off.
Note:
Always apply power to the digitizer before turning on the
computer. This enables the computer to recognize the digitizer.
2. Connect the digitizer’s electrical power cord (connected to the power
supply) to an electrical outlet.
Note:
The film digitizer does not have a power switch.
3. Observe the LED on the front of the digitizer: the LED should flash
yellow for several minutes. This indicates the digitizer is performing
internal tests and calibration.
4. When the LED stops flashing and remains green, turn on the PC.
The digitizer is now ready to scan films.
Note:
Normally,
do not turn off the digitizer
. Leave it on
continuously. Turn the PC on and off as needed.
Note:
To reset the digitizer, see the next chapter,
“Troubleshooting.”
