6 QuickScan™ I QM21X1 / QBT21X1
Host Connection:
Verify before connection that the reader’s cable type is com-
patible with your host equipment.
Most connections plug directly into the host device as shown in
Figure 2
. Key-
board Wedge interface cables have a ‘Y’ connection where its female end mates
with the male end of the cable from the keyboard and the remaining end at the
keyboard port on the terminal/PC.
Figure 2. Connecting to the Host
Power Connection:
Plug the AC Adapter into an approved AC socket. If plugged
into the wall, ensure cable is facing downwards (as shown in
Figure 1
) to prevent
undue strain on the socket.
Locking the Reader to the Base
The Base Station provides a locking mechanism to ensure electrical contact
between Reader and Base, in case of inadvertent movements.
NOTE
The QuickScan QBT21X1 can be set up to require a PIN code when connecting to the host. If
you are adding new equipment to a system that uses a custom security PIN. See
"Connect-
ing the Base when Security Pin is Enabled," starting on page 8
for more information.
