Note: Please check the port on the host device and purchase the cable accordingly.

6
Using USB Cable
Connect the scanner to a host device through a USB cable with RJ45 and USB connectors:
1. Plug the RJ45 connector into the data port on the scanner.
2. Plug the USB connector into the USB port on the Host.

7
Using RS-232 Cable
Connect the scanner to a host device through an RS-232 cable with RJ45, RS-232 and power
connectors:
1. Plug the RJ45 connector into the data port on the scanner.
2. Plug the RS-232 connector into the RS-232 port on the Host.
3. Connect the supplied power adaptor to the power connector of the RS-232 cable.

8
Removing Communication Cable
Get an appropriate needle or a straightened paper clip and then follow the steps below:
1. Disconnect the power adaptor from mains if there is one.
2. Insert the needle into the hole.
3. Pull out the cable slowly from the scanner while pressing the needle in.
4. Remove the needle.
5. Disconnect the cable from the Host.
