Figure 5 – System Layout
A laptop PC can be connected to the C-BOX 200 (and consequently to the scanner
auxiliary interface) through the internal 9-pin connector. This allows monitoring of the
data transmitted by the scanner or scanner configuration through the WinHost utility
(see the scanner Reference Manual for more details). The scanner auxiliary interface
signals are also available on the internal spring clamp connectors.
The scanner configuration and data monitoring are possible once the warning LED is
turned OFF.
After making system cabling and switch settings, connect the scanner to the 25-pin
connector on the left side of the C-BOX 200 housing.
Switch ON the C-BOX 200 power switch (see Figure 8).
By default, after power on, an automatic connection procedure takes place between
the C-BOX 200 and the scanner. During this phase, requiring a few seconds, the
warning LED is turned ON. Once the procedure had been completed successfully,
the warning LED is turned OFF.
After system functioning has been verified, close the C-BOX 200 using the 4 cover
screws making sure the rubber seal is fitted correctly between the parts of the
housing.
