Replacing the Interface Cable

The standard interface cable is attached to the scanner with an 8–pin modular
connector. When properly seated, the connector is held in the scanner handle
by a flexible retention tab. The cable’s designed to be field replaceable.

Notes:

Order replacement cables from Welch Allyn or from an authorized
distributor.

When ordering a replacement cable, specify the cable part number of the
original interface cable.

Turn the power to the host system OFF.

To Replace the Interface Cable:

Disconnect the scanner cable from the terminal or computer.

Locate the small hole on the side of the scanner handle near the base
(see Figure below).

Straighten one end of a paper clip.

Insert the end of the paper
clip into the small hole and
press in. This depresses
the retention tab, releasing
the connector. Pull the
connector out of the
scanner handle while
maintaining pressure on
the paper clip.

Replace with the new cable.
Insert the connector into the opening at the base of the scanner
handle. Press firmly. The connector is “keyed” to go in only one way,
and will click into place.

If you aren’t sure what programming options have been set up in your
scanner, or you’ve changed some options and now want the factory
settings restored, refer to Main Menu Selections in Section 1 and scan the
Factory Default Settings bar code.
