Assembly Instructions
WARNING: Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) may damage inte-
grated circuits. Do not touch circuit boards on the
unit without a suitable grounding strap (not
included). A grounding strap should also be worn at
all times while programming devices.
Before beginning, ensure that the power is turned off at both the programmer
and your computer.
1. Connect one end of the parallel cable to the port on the back of the pro-
grammer. Connect the other end to the parallel port of your computer. Any
empty parallel port on your computer may be used.
2. Install the power supply by inserting the small DIN jack of the power supply
into the power socket on the back of the programmer. This jack is keyed
and cannot be inserted incorrectly.
3. Connect the power cord between the power supply box and a 100–250
Volt, 50–60 Hz AC outlet.
WARNING: A device may be damaged if it is in a TOP socket dur-
ing power up. Remove all devices before turning on
the power switch.
You are now ready to install the TaskLink for Windows software and begin pro-
gramming devices. Refer to the TaskLink
for Windows CD. To install the soft-
ware see the jewel case front tray liner.
Note: Some parallel ports have hardware characteristics that may cause
problems communicating with the programmer. If you see the message
“Found slow printer port” during installation, install the OPTIMA Booster sup-
plied with your programmer. Follow the instructions “Installing the OPTIMA
Booster for a Slow Printer Port” found on the TaskLink
for Windows CD.
