OMNISCANNER User Guide
Chapter 12 - Universal Serial Bus Port
USB allows you to instantly connect OMNISCANNER2 to your computer
running Windows
®
98 (2nd Edition) or Windows
®
2000.
A standardized plug and port replaces all the
different kinds of serial and parallel port
connectors and combinations.
When using a USB-compliant PC, you just turn
on your PC, attach OMNISCANNER2 to the USB
port, and turn on the scanner. USB makes the
connection process automatic and hassle free.
Up to 10 OMNISCANNER2s can be connected
simultaneously.
Note
Most PCs, including many notebooks, on the market today are fully
USB-ready.
The “Hot-swapping” feature allows you to attach or remove
OMNISCANNER2 on the fly, without having to shut down and restart your
PC. OMNISCANNER2 will be detected automatically. This feature is espe-
cially useful when uploading results from several scanners.
Of course the USB works with Scanlink Upload Utility, OMNISCANNER
Configuration and OMNISCANNER Remote Control. (See Chapter 9 -
Uploading and Printing for more information.)

OMNISCANNER2 supports high speed USB connections. Please use only
high-speed USB cables. Make sure the length of the cable does not
