Testing the connection

You are now ready to perform a test to check if the scanner is correctly connected to your
Macintosh.

Caution:

Check if the scanner is properly unlocked.

1.

Connect the power cable to the scanner.

Use the correct power cord for the voltage in your area. SnapScan automatically adjusts to any
AC electrical outlet rated from 100V to 240V.

2.

Check if the SCSI cable is properly connected.

3.

Switch the scanner on.

The scanner performs a self-test during which the info indicator blinks slowly. This takes about
15 seconds or less. After the self-test the info indicator remains on.

If a malfunction is detected during the self-test, that is, if the info indicator starts blinking at a
higher frequency, refer to

Appendix C, “Troubleshooting”

.

4.

Switch on any other SCSI devices you may have attached, and wait for them to start up.

5.

Switch on your Macintosh.

As it starts up, your Macintosh performs a series of tests to verify the correct system
configuration.

6.

Open the SCSI ID checker.

7.

Verify whether the Macintosh sees the scanner at its proper SCSI ID.

In case of problems, refer to

Appendix C, “Troubleshooting”

.

8.

Close the SCSI ID checker.
