Inspecting Cords and Connectors
Inspect the Imager’s interface cable and connector for wear or other signs
of damage. A badly worn cable or damaged connector may interfere
with Imager operation. Contact your PSC dealer for information about
cable replacement. Cable replacement instructions are included below.
Replacing the Interface Cable
The Interface (I/F) cable connects the scanner to the host terminal and
power supply.
Disconnecting the I/F Cable
1. Loosen the Phillips screw at the bottom of the handle. This screw
is captive and does not come all the way out.
2. Swing the forked cable retainer clear of the square hole in the End
Cap and rotate away from the cable.
3. Holding the scanner handle and End Cap together in one hand as
shown in
Figure 2-1
, pull the connector out of the handle End Cap
to free the I/F cable.
The I/F cable is now disconnected.
