The scanner will slide into a 5 1/4” half-height drive bay
as shown in Figure 3.4. Since you will be inserting film
into the scanner, the computer must have a cutout for
this drive bay. In other words, the drive bay must be
externally accessible. The scanner will be powered from
the computer using the standard computer drive power
supply connector. The computer motherboard needs to
have an available single short connector slot for the
SCSI interface board.

The computer drive bay has one or two metal stops
screwed into the tapped holes on the sides of each half­
height drive slot as shown in Figure 3.4. These should
be loosened to allow them to either be removed or hung
freely so they do not block the drive bay receptacles for
the guide rails. These will be repositioned after the
scanner is installed to lock the scanner in place.
The scanner side mounting holes
Two sets of vertical holes are provided on the sides of
the scanner. These are called the top and bottom rail
mounting holes. One set must be chosen in accordance
with where the computer allows the scanner to be
positioned in the drive bay. Most computers require that
the bottom set of mounting holes be used. Position the
rails at the bottom of the scanner and, while holding the
scanner, see if the scanner will slide into the bay rail
slots.
