Connecting Your Scanner
To an IBM 468x/469x Terminal, Port 9E or Port 17
Attach the Synapse Power Regulator Y-cable as shown in
Figure 2-3. One connector goes to the Host port and the
other to the Power port. Attach a Synapse cable between
the Power Regulator cable and the IBM terminal. No
additional power supply is needed, as the IBM terminal
supplies power to the scanner. If additional scanning
versatility is desired, plug a Synapse-compatible scanner
into the Hand-Held Laser Scanner port.
