3 Installation on the Macintosh
This section provides information on installing the ArtixScan 2020 on the Macintosh. The procedures are divided
into two main sections: 1) Installation for Macintosh computers that feature built-in SCSI ports; and 2) Installation
for the new Macintosh G3 computers (with no SCSI ports). For the new G3 computers, you will be installing the
SCSI interface card included in the scanner package.
A. Installation for Macintosh computers with built-in SCSI ports
1. Connecting the scanner
1.
Shut down your computer.
2.
Connect the scanner to your computer, using the
SCSI cable provided in the scanner package.
Note: See the next section for details on termination.
3.
Plug the power cord to the power connector at the
back panel of the scanner, and plug the other end of
the power cord to your AC power source or wall
outlet.
4.
Turn on your scanner and wait for all the lights on
the front panel to stop blinking and stay on steady.
5.
Power up your Macintosh.
2. Termination
A terminator is included in your scanner package and
should be installed on your scanner in the following
situations:
• If the scanner is the only SCSI device in your SCSI
chain; or
• If you are daisy chaining the scanner with other
SCSI devices AND the scanner is the last device in
your SCSI chain.
Normally, a terminator is not required is when the
scanner is part of a daisy chain and is NOT the last
device in the SCSI chain.
To install the terminator, plug it into
the SCSI port at the back of the
scanner (beside the cable connecting
the scanner to the computer).
