Ethernet Interface
The Ethernet interface (NIC) can be used for TCP/IP communication with a remote or local
host computer by connecting the scanner to a LAN. It can also be connected directly to a
host PC.
The following is an example of a connection to a LAN through a Hub using a straight through
cable:
DS8100A

2.3.4 Power Supply
The supply voltage for correct operation of the scanner must be between 20 and 30 VDC.
The max. power consumption is 30 W including startup current.
Several accessory power supplies are available to power the DS8100A(s) and reading
station components. See par. 1.5.
A security system allows the laser to activate only once the motor has reached the correct
rotational speed; consequently, the laser beam is generated after a slight delay from the
power on of the scanner.
