volved. Otherwise damage may be caused to the scanner or other SCSI units.
• When starting up, always turn on the SCSI units (including the scanner) first
and the computer last.

SINGLE-UNIT SCSI CONNECTION

The scanner is delivered with a 50-pin/50-pin SCSI cable. This is the type of
cable needed for a PC installation or for a Macintosh installation with more
than one SCSI unit. For single unit connection to a Macintosh, and in rare
cases to a PC, please obtain a 25-pin/50-pin cable from your dealer.
If the scanner is the only SCSI unit in your system, the SCSI cable is
connected as follows:
1 • Turn off the scanner and the computer.
2 • Plug the 50-pin end into one of the two SCSI sockets on the scanner.
Plug the other end of the SCSI cable into the computer, where the
socket will usually be marked with a SCSI symbol.
3 • Plug a SCSI terminator into the free socket of the scanner.
4 • Connect the scanner to the wall outlet.
5 • Turn on the scanner.
6 • Turn on the computer.

MULTIPLE-UNIT SCSI CONNECTION

Each SCSI unit in a system must be assigned a unique address between 1
and 6. If the scanner is given an address that is already being used by
another unit, communication with the SCSI units will be disturbed, and the
computer may not start. The procedure for setting the scanner's SCSI address
is described below. Please consult the instruction manuals of the other SCSI
units in your system to find out how to set their SCSI addresses.
