to allow

Cables & Connections
Considerations when routing the power and interface cables for the scan-
ner and scanning-scale are:
• Ensure that cables are not pinched, kinked or pierced.
• Do not route interface cables in close proximity to electrical
motors or
other sources of electromagnetic interference.
• Cables can drop directly from their connectors on
the scanner, or,
alternatively, can be routed along the scanner’s side to the back
(see
Figure 2-13).
Do not plug the AC power cord into the outlet at this time. It is a good
prac
tice to always connect the power cable to the scanner first before plug-
ging it into the AC receptacle. The procedures titled, Set-Up, provided
later
in this section will instruct you to connect the power cord at that
time.
Figure 2-13 illustrates the basic cable routing scheme.
