Installation for the PC
This section shows you how to set up your StudioScan II with your
PC. You can find information on which SCSI adapter card to use and
instructions for connecting the scanner to your PC.
Which SCSI adapter card
The StudioScan II requires a SCSI adapter card (for example, an
Adaptec card AHA 1510 or the PCZ card that is supplied with the
scanner) to work with your PC-AT, 386, 486, or compatible computer.
If your PC does not have such a card, contact your dealer.
❖
Important: Please check the following documentation:
■ ■
The Read Me file on the PC disk for up-to-date information.
■ ■ The documentation supplied with your adapter card. This will
tell you how to install the card.
■ ■
If you are using third party software, check the
documentation supplied with that software for the SCSI
adapter cards supported.
Connecting the scanner
Before you connect the scanner to your PC, make sure your PC and
everything connected to it is turned off.
1. Set the scanner to an unused SCSI ID number between 1 and 6.
For more information, see ‘Changing the SCSI ID number’ earlier
in this chapter.
2. Connect the 50-pin side of the SCSI cable to the SCSI port at
the rear of your PC.
3. Connect the smaller end of the SCSI cable to the smaller SCSI
port on your scanner.
4. If the scanner is at the end of your SCSI chain, place the
terminator on the remaining SCSI port of your scanner and
snap the diamond shaped wire clips into the clip brackets to
secure the connection.
5. Connect the power cord to the scanner.
6. Turn on the scanner.
After a self-test the scanner’s Ready indicator turns on.
