Quick Start-Up Procedure
This section is for those who wish to start using the imager before reading the complete
manual. In only a few steps the imager will be operable.
Follow the appropriate steps depending upon whether your LH2 is configured to operate
with a RS232 interface.
Turn off the power to your PC and connect the imager to the RS232 communications port
depending on your cable configuration.
Note: You must provide +5 Volt DC power to the imager. This can be accomplished using
the power supply available from Opticon. If the power supply is obtained from another
source verify that it is identified with the CE mark. Turn on the power to the PC.
