Turning the Scanner Lamp On and Off
For PC Users Only: You can turn the scanner lamp on and off
using the Astra 2000’s built-in Power Saving utility. The lamp
remains on whenever the scanner has power, unless you turn it off
using the UMAX Power Saving utility. Turning off the scanner
lamp when you are not scanning prolongs the life of the lamp.
The Power Saving utility window appears whenever you close
VistaScan.
It appears in the bottom-right corner of your desktop by default.
The window displays an image of the scanner with the lamp
illuminated.
To turn the scanner lamp off:
Click on the image of the scanner in the Power Saving utility
window. After a second or two, the light in the scanner image goes
out, and your scanner lamp is turned off.
To turn the scanner lamp on:
Open the VistaScan software, or simply click on the scanner image
in the Power Saving utility window.
NOTE: The scanner lamp is different from the Power Indicator
light. The Power Indicator light is the very small, green light
located directly above the UMAX logo on the front panel of the
scanner. This indicator remains ON whenever the scanner is
plugged into an electrical outlet (regardless of whether the Power
Saving utility is engaged).
