CONNECTING THE SCANNER
The scanner kit you ordered to match your interface should provide a compatible cable for
your installation. Alternatively, if your scanner receives Power Off the Terminal (POT) it
might be possible to connect using a cable from a previously existing installation (except for
USB). Check with your technical support representative about compatibility before con‐
necting. Use the appropriate instructions below when you're ready to connect the scanner
to the terminal, PC or other host device.
Upon completing the connection via the appropriate interface instructions below, proceed
to the
correct interface type.
RS-232 Serial Connection :
to the terminal/PC serial port via the RS‐232 cable as shown in Figure 1. If the terminal will
not support POT (Power Off the Terminal) to supply scanner power, use the approved
power supply (AC Adapter).
