Troubleshooting
For problem detection and troubleshooting, check your scanner as follows:
1. When the scanner is powered through the interface cable. To do this, scanners and computer be
connected before using the scanner with each other, must come up with the computer with a power
supply of 5 volts DC for the scanner. Check the manual for your computer, that the power supply to hook
up your scanner is sufficient.
2. Make sure that the interface cable is securely attached to the computer. In the manual of the computer for
information on proper port on the scanner. Support is also available from your technical staff..

connected to the scanner and power supply.

screws (at HS 6508) to the end cap of the handle with an appropriate tool. Remove the wire tie and pull
out the cable. Run the cable back on again and make sure that it is properly seated in the cradle. Insert
the wire tie back and fix everything with screws.

another recommended power supply device from which you know for sure that it is fully functional.
