Unless otherwise specified, to correct an error during a scanning sequence, just re-scan the correct parameter.
Connecting an IBM 468X/469X Host
Connect the scanner directly to the host computer.
Figure 7-1 IBM Connection
1. Attach the modular connector of the IBM 46XX interface cable to the cable interface port on the scanner. See
Installing the Interface Cable on page 1-3.
2. Connect the other end of the IBM 46XX interface cable to the appropriate port on the host (typically Port 9).
3. The scanner automatically detects the host interface type, but there is no default setting. Scan the appropriate
bar code from Port Address on page 7-4 to select the port address.
4. To modify any other parameter options, scan the appropriate bar codes in this chapter.
If problems occur with the system, see Troubleshooting on page 3-4.

NOTE Interface cables vary depending on configuration. The connectors can be different than those illustrated in
Figure 7-1, but the steps to connect the scanner are the same.
NOTE The only required configuration is the port address. The IBM system typically controls other scanner
parameters.
