Chapter 2 — Installing the scanner 21
Testing the connection
You are now ready to perform a test to check if the scanner is correctly connected to your
Macintosh.
Caution: Check if the scanner is properly unlocked.
1. Connect the power cable to the scanner.
Use the correct power cord for the voltage in your area. StudioStar automatically adjusts to any
AC electrical outlet rated from 100V to 240V.
Caution: Make sure that you are using the correct power cable for the voltage in your area.
2. Check if the SCSI cable is properly connected.
3. Switch the scanner on.
The scanner performs a self-test after which the ready indicator (the middle yellow one)
switches on. This takes about 15 seconds or less.
If a malfunction is detected during the self-test, that is, if the ready indicator remains off, refer to
Appendix C, “Troubleshooting”.
4. Switch on any other SCSI devices you may have attached, and wait for them to start up.
5. Switch on your Macintosh.
As it starts up, your Macintosh performs a series of tests to verify the correct system
configuration.
6. Open the SCSI ID checker.
See “Choosing a SCSI ID number” earlier in this chapter.
7. Verify whether the Macintosh sees the scanner at its proper SCSI address.
In case of problems, refer to Appendix C, “Troubleshooting”.
8. Close the SCSI ID checker.
9. Install the FotoLook software following the instructions on the CD-ROM leaflet.
