Inspecting Cords and Connectors

Inspect the interface cable and connector for wear or other signs of damage. A badly worn cable or damaged connector
may interfere with scanner operation. Contact your distributor for information about cable replacement. Cable replacement

Replacing Cables in Corded Scanners

The standard interface cable is attached to the scanner with an 10-pin modular connector. When properly seated, the connec-
tor is held in the scanner's handle by a flexible retention tab. The interface cable is designed to be field replaceable.
• Order replacement cables from Honeywell or from an authorized distributor.
• When ordering a replacement cable, specify the cable part number of the original interface cable.

Replacing a Xenon Interface Cable

1. Turn the power to the host system OFF.
2. Disconnect the scanner's cable from the terminal or computer.
3. Locate the small hole on the back of the scanner's handle. This is the cable
release.
4. Straighten one end of a paper clip.
5. Insert the end of the paper clip into the small hole and press in. This depresses
the retention tab, releasing the connector. Pull the connector out while
maintaining pressure on the paper clip, then remove the paper clip.
6. Replace with the new cable.
Insert the connector into the opening and press firmly. The connector is keyed to
go in only one way, and will click into place.

Replacing a Granit Interface Cable

1. Turn the power to the host system OFF.
2. Disconnect the scanner's cable from the terminal or computer.
3. Unscrew the locking plate on the bottom of the scanner.
4. Slide the locking plate away from the connector and pull the cable out of the scanner.
5. Replace with the new cable.
Insert the connector into the opening and press firmly.
