Step 2 Connect The System - Microscan QX Hawk User Manual

Step 2 — Connect the System
Important: When connecting Ultra-Lock cordsets to the QX Hawk and QX-1, align the
pins first and then push the connector into place. Do not twist the connectors, as this will
bend the pins.
Important: Do not attempt to power more than four imagers with a single power supply in
a daisy chain configuration. Add a QX-1 and one power supply for every four additional
imagers in the daisy chain.
RS-232
• Connect the Serial Communication Cable from "A" on the QX Hawk to "2" on the QX-1.
• Connect the host cable from "1" on the QX-1 to the host computer.
• Connect the photo sensor to "T" on the QX-1.
• Connect the power supply to "3" on the QX-1.
• Plug in the power supply.
Ethernet
Note: The QX Hawk does not require an Ethernet crossover cordset, because the imager
itself performs automatic internal crossover (transmit-to-receive switching). Microscan
offers a standard straight-through (un-crossed) Ethernet cordset (61-000160-01).
• Connect the Ethernet Cable from "B" on the QX Hawk to the network.
• Connect the photo sensor to "T" on the QX-1.
• Connect the power supply to "A" on the QX Hawk.
• Plug in the power supply.
