Installation Note
Powering the MS5145-47 directly from the computer can
sometimes cause interference with the operation of the
scanner or the computer. Not all computers supply the
same current through the keyboard port, explaining why
a scanner may work on one computer and not another.
Contact a customer service representative if an external
power supply is required.
See caution on page 5.
