Installing the SCSI Driver Software
The Nikon LS-3510AF SCSI model and all Coolscan models are interfaced to the
computer through the SCSI bus. It is necessary to load the SCSI driver software into the
computer’s memory in order to access the scanner. This is typically accomplished by
adding a
D
EVICE
statement in the computer’s
C
ONFIG
.S
YS
file.
The Nikon Installer can automatically update the current
C
ONFIG
.S
YS
file for
you via the
SCSI D
EVICE

dialog, seen in Figure 3.9. This is the rec-
ommended procedure for novice users.
The dialog contains three options. The first is
C
OPY
F
ILE AND
U
PDATE
C
ONFIG
.S
YS
.
If you select this option and click
C
ONTINUE
, the scanner SCSI device
driver will be added to your current
C
ONFIG
.S
YS
file, which will then be renamed
C
ONFIG
.B
AK
. The following line will automatically be entered into the
C
ONFIG
.S
YS
file:
D
EVICE
=
C
:\P
ATH
\MA13B.SYS
Alternatively, you can modify the
C
ONFIG
.S
YS
file yourself. In this case, select
the
C
OPY
F

D

’
T

C

radio button, then click
C
ONTINUE
.
If you select this option, you must manually enter the following line into your
C
ONFIG
.S
YS
file:
D
EVICE
=
C
:\P
ATH
\MA13B.SYS
The last option in this dialog,
D
ON
’
T
C
OPY
F
ILE OR
U

C
ONFIG

should only be selected when you do not want to complete this operation.
If you are attempting to use the scanner with a third-party SCSI controller card
you should consider the advantages of running your scanner and hard disk from isolated
buses. There are a wide variety of SCSI controller cards on the market, but not every
card can supply the SCSI functionality required to run your scanner. The required
ASPI driver software is often an additional cost. The Trantor T-130 SCSI controller
card and ASPI software have been certified by Nikon for use with your scanner. For
microchannel use, the Trantor T-260 has been certified by Nikon. Only select
C
OPY
F
ILE AND
U
PDATE
C
ONFIG
.S
YS
if you are using the Trantor T-130 SCSI controller
card.
