Connecting to a SCSI Interface
Before you connect the scanner, you must have an ASPI-compliant SCSI 2
interface board installed in your computer (Adaptec SCSI 2 interface boards are
recommended). Some computers come with a SCSI 2 board preinstalled; check your
computer documentation.
Adaptec Power Domain 2940UW and 2940U2W SCSI boards
for the Macintosh are designed for hard drives and are not
compatible with scanners.
If you purchased a SCSI board as an option, follow the manufacturer’s instructions to
install both the board and its driver.
You may also need to change the
scanner’s SCSI ID setting before you
connect it to your computer. If you have
another SCSI device that uses SCSI ID 2,
turn the scanner off and turn the SCSI
ID switch on the back of the scanner to a
new number.
Choose a number that doesn’t conflict with the ID number of
other SCSI devices. Don’t use SCSI ID 0, 1, or 7. If your
Macintosh has a built-in CD-ROM, don’t use SCSI ID 3.
Follow these steps to connect the scanner to a SCSI interface:
1. Make sure the scanner and computer are turned off. (The scanner is off when the
P OPERATE button is out and the ERROR and READY lights are off.)
