CONNECTING THE SCANNER
Magellan 900i scanner kits generally include a cable that is compatible with your interface
and installation needs. Scanners may also be purchased without cable for easy stocking and
distribution. Check with your technical support representative about cable compatibility
before using any cable not purchased as part of a scanner kit. Use the appropriate instruc-
tions below when you’re ready to connect 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 barcode 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 1. If the terminal will
not support POT (Power Off the Terminal) to supply scanner power, use the approved
power supply (AC Adapter).
