Installation procedures:
1) Power off the terminal and unplug the communication cable at

terminal side.

2) Install the interface cable as shown in Figure 3. The “Y” cable

provided in Figure 3 is for terminals with female connector on
communication port. If there is a male connector on your terminal,
you need a converter to change that male to female and another
converter to change the female to male on host connector.

3) When the scanner is powered, a long beep sound indicates that the

scanner is ready to use.
