Connecting the Cables
Connecting the interface cable
Connect the device to the computer with the appropriate interface cable.
Two types of interface cables are available with the device. Select the interface cable appropriate to
the computer and output software used.
When Windows 2000/XP is used (IEEE 1394)
When the computer is operated with Windows 2000/XP, use an IEEE 1394 interface cable to connect
the computer and the device together.
It is possible to use an IEEE 1284 interface cable for connection between the computer and the
device. In this case, however, the data transmission speed decreases.
•
The application used must be applicable to
IEEE 1394.
•
Either of the two IEEE 1394 connectors can
be used.
When software other than Windows 2000/XP is used (IEEE 1284)
When the software used is other than Windows 2000/XP, use an IEEE 1284 interface cable to connect
the computer and the device together.
