4. Attach the other end of the cable to either of the identical SCSI ports on
the back of the scanner; again make sure the cable connector is well
seated.
5. Set the SCSI termination switch on the back of the scanner to the on
position.

If External SCSI Devices Are Connected

Continue here if multiple SCSI devices are connected to your computer in
a chain. The following steps will help you determine where you should
place the scanner in that chain — either at the end of the chain, or in the
middle of the chain.
The total cable length connecting all devices must not exceed 15 feet (4.6
meters).
1. Be sure power is turned off to your computer, to the scanner, and to all
devices in the SCSI chain (turn off the computer first).
2. Select the SCSI II cable supplied with the scanner.
Note: If the connectors at the ends of the supplied cable do not allow
you to complete the following steps, you will need to purchase a SCSI
cable will complete the chain described below. Cables are widely avail-
able from computer retailers; if you must purchase a cable, be certain to
obtain a high quality cable with a continuous EMI shield over the cable
and connectors.
3. Determine if the already connected SCSI devices are terminated or not.
To do so:
A. First look for an external SCSI terminator on the devices; if you find
one (it should be on the last device in the chain), remove it.
B. Because some devices contain internal terminators, also check the
instructions for your devices to determine if they are terminated
internally.
