To determine if your desired new interface is available on your scanner,
check the following section titled

Software

on page 4. The section lists

host interface types supported by each interface board available at the
time of this writing. If you are still unsure of your scanner’s available
interface connectivity, consult your PSC dealer.

The scanner will need to be sent to a Level I Service repair depot if the
interface board must be swapped; however, if necessary, you can
change your scanner’s interface cable by following these instructions.
(Refer to Figure 1.):

1.

Loosen the screw at the bottom of the handle. This screw is
captive and does not come all the way out.

2.

Swing the forked cable retainer clear of the square hole in the
end cap and rotate away from the cable.

3.

Holding the scanner handle and end cap together in one hand,
pull the connector out of the handle end cap to free the inter-
face cable.

4.

Connect the new interface cable at the scanner and rotate the
forked cable retainer to secure it. Tighten the screw to between
6 and 10 in-lbs.

Figure 1. Removing/Replacing the Interface Cable

CAUTION

DO NOT try to pull the end cap off, as this may
damage the scanner.
