8 - 2 DS3608 Digital Scanner Product Reference Guide
Connecting an RS-232 Interface
Connect the digital scanner directly to the host computer.
Figure 8-1 RS-232 Direct Connection
1. Attach the modular connector of the RS-232 interface cable to the cable interface port on the digital scanner
(see Installing the DS3608 Interface Cable on page 1-3).
2. Connect the other end of the RS-232 interface cable to the serial port on the host.
3. Connect the power supply to the serial connector end of the RS-232 interface cable. Plug the power supply
into an appropriate outlet.
4. The digital scanner automatically detects the host interface type and uses the default setting. If the default (*)
does not meet your requirements, select another RS-232 host type by scanning the appropriate bar code from
RS-232 Host Types on page 8-6.
5. To modify any other parameter options, scan the appropriate bar codes in this chapter.
