Setup Connecting to a Computer or Network

to your computer's documentation, if necessary, to identify the
ports.
3. Connect the serial cable (attached to the CubiScan controller) to
your computer's serial port. If the port is 9-pin, connect the
serial cable directly to the serial port. If it is 25-pin, use a 25-pin
to 9-pin adapter (not supplied).
4. To secure the serial cable, tighten the screws (two on each con-
nector) at both ends of the cable. It is important that the cable be
secure.
For information on the serial cable pin-outs, refer to “Serial
(RS-232-C) Cable Pin Assignments” on page 49.
Connecting to a Network (Optional)
You can connect the CubiScan 110 to a network through a standard
10-BaseT Ethernet TCP/IP port. You will need a standard Ethernet
cable with RJ-45 connectors (see “Ethernet (TCP/IP) Cable Pin
Assignments” on page 50). The network host device determines
whether a straight-through or crossover cable is required. Consult
your network administrator, if necessary, to determine your local
cabling requirements.
Do the following to connect the CubiScan 110 to a network:
1. Route the Ethernet cable under the base so it cannot be crushed,
bent, or pulled loose.
2. The CubiScan controller is located just behind the control panel
at the front of the base. Connect one end of the Ethernet cable to
the Ethernet connector on the back of the CubiScan controller,
as shown below. Push the connector in until it latches. There
should be an audible snap when the connector latches.
