Setting Up the Scanner
Installing the Interface Cable
1. Plug the interface cable modular connector into the cable interface port on the bottom of the scanner
handle.

3. Connect the other end of the interface cable to the host (see the specific host chapter for information on
host connections).
Figure 1-2 Installing the Cable
Connecting Power (if required)
If the host does not provide power to the scanner, use an external power connection to the scanner. After
installing the interface cable, plug the power supply into the power jack on the interface cable. Plug the other
end of the power supply into an AC outlet.
Configuring the Scanner

7, USER PREFERENCES & MISCELLANEOUS SCANNER OPTIONS for information about programming the
scanner using bar code menus. Also see each host-specific chapter to set up connection to a specific host
