3-2 Installing the LS-10 Scanner

Installing the internal-mount scanner is very easy. The
guide rails provided with the scanner must be screwed

to the two sides of the scanner. The scanner must be

inserted into the drive bay using the computer drive bay
slots. Connections to the back of the scanner include the
computer power and the SCSI flat cable.

Due to the tight space constraints inside the computer, it
is not possible to connect the cables to the scanner after
the scanner is installed. The SCSI cable and terminating
networks are easier to connect to the scanner before the
scanner is mounted in drive bay. The computer power
connector is typically easiest to connect to the scanner
when the scanner is partially pushed into the drive bay.

Installing the guide rails

Each computer can have its own special requirements

for mounting devices into the internal drive bays. In

most cases, a pair of guide rails are screwed to the

sides of the scanner to slide into the drive bay as shown

in Figure 3.3. These guide rails are also used to lock the

scanner in place.

The computer drive bays

In order for a scanner to be mounted internal to the

computer, the computer must have the following:

1. An externally accessible 5 1/4" half-height bay

2. A standard power supply connector
3. A card slot available on the motherboard
