To determine if your desired new interface is available on your scanner,
check the following section titled Software on page 7. The section lists
host interface types supported by each interface board available at the
time of this writing. If you are still unsure of your scanner's available
interface connectivity, consult your Datalogic dealer.
The Base Station will need to be sent to an authorized service repair
depot if the interface board must be swapped; however, if necessary,
you can change your Base Station's interface (I/F) cable by following
these instructions. (Refer to Figure 1.):
1. Power down the system.
2. Disconnect the I/F cable from the host terminal.
3. Swing the I/F cable retainer up (as shown in Figure 1a) to free
the cable.
4. Disconnect the cable (Figure 1b).
5. Connect the replacement I/F cable to the Base Station.
6. Rotate the cable retainer over the cable overmold until the
retainer snaps in place (see Figure 1c).
It is important that the I/F cable be connected to the
Base Station prior to applying power to the system.
This is because the interface type (RS-232, IBM, Key-
board Wedge, etc.) is selected by the Base Station
subject to the I/F cable it is connected to at the time
NOTE
of power-up.
Once the system is connected and powered-on, link
the scanner(s) by following the instructions given in
the Section, Linking the Scanner to a Base Station
on page 150. The Base Station will automatically
download its new interface setting to the scanner
NOTE
during the process of linking.
