Maintaining the Scanner
The scanner is designed for long-term trouble-free operation and rarely needs any
maintenance. Only an occasional cleaning of the scanner window is necessary in order
to remove dirt and fingerprints.
Cleaning the Scan Window
Wipe the scan window with a soft lint-free cloth and a non-abrasive cleaner to avoid
scratching. The scan window may be cleaned while the scanner is running.
Replacing the Interface Cable
The standard interface cable is attached to the scanner with an 8-pin modular
connector. When properly seated, the connector is secured in the scanner handle by a
flexible retention tab. The cable is designed to be field replaceable.
Replacement cables can be obtained from your authorized distributor. To replace the
cable, follow these steps.
1. Make sure that the power of your computer system is switched off, and if a power
adapter is used, disconnect it from the scanner cable.
2. Disconnect the old scanner cable from the computer system.
3. Remove the screws that hold the mounting plate on the scanner and disengage
the mounting plate.
4. Press down the small tab on the connector where the old cable is attached to the
scanner and pull. The connector should come out.
5. Insert the connecting cable in the slot in the mounting plate.
6. Insert the 8-pin modular plug of the power link cable into the “host” connector in
the back of the scanner until it clicks.
7. Mate the scanner and the mounting plate, engaging the tab on the under- side.
Be careful not to pinch the cable.
8. Replace the mounting plate screws.
9. Plug the new cable into the host.
10. If a power adapter is used, plug the power adapter into the jack on the interface
cable.
