Figure 10-2 RS-232 Direct Connection to DS3608
1. Attach the modular connector of the RS-232 interface cable to the cable interface port on the digital scanner
(see Installing the DS3608 Interface Cable on page 1-15).
2. Connect the other end of the RS-232 interface cable to the serial port on the host.
3. Connect the power supply to the serial connector end of the RS-232 interface cable. Plug the power supply
into an appropriate outlet.
4. The digital scanner automatically detects the host interface type and uses the default setting. If the default (*)
does not meet your requirements, select another RS-232 host type by scanning the appropriate barcode from
RS-232 Host Types on page 10-7.
5. To modify any other parameter options, scan the appropriate barcodes in this chapter.
