3. PREPARING TO OPERATE THE SCANNER
3.3 Connecting the Scanner to a Computer
Note: Drawings of the CS600-11/CS500-11 model are used for the explanations.
The scanner can be connected to a computer using the USB interface or the Ethernet interface.
The operation of the scanner cannot be guaranteed in the following cases:
• When the cable is connected to a USB hub or an add-on USB board.
• When you are using a custom-built computer or one that you have modified.
The following should never be attempted:
• Remove or reinsert the cable while you are installing the driver.
• Remove or reinsert the cable while starting up the computer or the scanner.
• Remove or reinsert the cable within a period of 5 seconds.
• Remove or reinsert the cable while transferring data.
• Connect two or more scanners to a single computer.
Make sure that the scanner's power supply is turned off before using the interface
selection switch to select an interface.
The USB and Ethernet connectors cannot be used at the same time. Do not connect
both the USB and Ethernet cables to a computer, or to two separate computers, at
the same time.
Connecting the USB 2.0 interface
(1) Move the interface selection switch to the USB position.
(2) Ensure that you have a USB 2.0 interface cable that works with your computer. Plug
the USB 2.0 interface cable into the USB connector socket situated on the right-hand
side of the scanner unit.
