Computer requirements

The ScanMate F10 is controlled from a computer. This must be
either:
a PowerMacintosh with System 7 or higher and at least 16 MB of RAM for
the scanner.
or:
a 486 or Pentium PC with an Adaptec 1542B SCSI Controller or compatible
and with at least 16 MB of RAM for the scanner.
Also required are:
• One SCSI terminator.
• One free, grounded (earthed) AC wall outlet.
• Macintosh: One 25 pin/50 pin SCSI cable if the scanner is the only SCSI unit.
Recommended additional equipment:
• An additional mass storage device.
• Additional RAM for greater speed in editing images.
• A 24-bit color monitor and graphics card.
For the correct installation of your computer, please refer to its own
documentation.

Environmental requirements

• To ensure the best quality scans, the scanner should be operated in an
environment free of dust, dirt, and tobacco smoke. Placing it in an environ-
ment where smoking is permitted will create nicotine residues on the
optical system, which will reduce the quality of the scans.
• CAUTION: The scanner must be placed on a hard, flat surface. Air for
ventilation is drawn in at the back of the scanner. Therefore, this area
must not be obstructed.
