Cables & Connections
Considerations when routing the power and interface cables for the scanner 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 25).
Do not plug the AC power cord into the outlet at
this time. It is a good practice to always
connect the power cable to the scanner first before plugging 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 25 illustrates the basic cable routing scheme.
