Chapter 3: PC Installation

This chapter describes how you can connect and use the scanner with your IBM PC

or compatible computer.

Interface Card Installation

Before you can use your scanner with your computer, you need to install the

interface card into your PC. Please consult paragraphs “A” or “B” below to make the

appropriate settings for your card.

If your interface card is a proprietary card and has I/O Base Address dip

switches on it, refer to the documentation that came with your interface card to

confirm or reset the I/O base address.

If your interface card is a switchless card (i.e. does not have dip switches on it for

selecting the I/O base address), install the interface card in the computer as

described in the next section.

To install the card into one of the computer's expansion slots, observe the following

procedures:

Note

: The interface card is sensitive to static electricity. Handle the card by its

mounting bracket, particularly when removing the card from its anti-static

packaging.

Turn the computer power off and unplug the power cord.

Remove the housing cover of the computer. Follow the instructions provided in

your PC’s reference manual.

Remove the metal cover corresponding to your chosen slot. Keep the removed

screw so that it can be used to fasten the interface card.

Gently insert the interface card into the slot until it is firmly seated in the slot.

Secure the card in place with the screw removed from the expansion slot cover

in step 3 above.
