Connecting the Scanner
The scanner kit you ordered to match your interface should provide a compati-
ble cable for your installation. Use the appropriate instructions below to con-
nect the scanner to the terminal, PC or other host device.
Upon completing the connection via the appropriate interface instructions
below, proceed
to the Interface Related Features section of this manual and
scan the bar code to select
the correct interface type.
RS-232 Serial Connection —
Turn off power to the terminal/PC and connect the
scanner to the terminal/PC serial port via the RS-232 cable as shown in Figure

ner power, use the approved power supply (AC Adapter). Plug the AC Adapter
ba
rrel connector into the socket on the RS-232 cable connector and the AC
Adapter plug into a standard power outlet.

it will pose an
undue strain on the
