Description

This is the proper procedure for connecting the DR-6010C using SCSI to a computer.

Solution

There are two methods for connecting the DR-6010C scanner to a computer: USB connection, which makes use of a standard USB port on the computer, and SCSI connection, which makes use of a SCSI card installed in an expansion slot of the computer.


Do not connect a USB cable and SCSI cable at the same time.

Follow these steps to install the scanner using the SCSI connection:

Make sure the computer is turned OFF before connecting the SCSI cable. If the cable is connected while the computer is on, the scanner may not be properly recognized by the computer.
A SCSI cable is not supplied with the scanner. Purchase a cable that is suitable for the scanner and for the SCSI connector on the computer.
The SCSI ID of the scanner is set to "SCSI ID=2" by default. When using a daisy-chain configuration with other SCSI devcies, set the DIP switches so that there is no duplication of SCSI ID numbers in the system.
The DR-6010C scanner incorporates a SCSI terminator which is permanently set to ON. When using a daisy-chain configuration with other SCSI devices, make sure that the DR-6010C is connected as the last device in the chain. Set the terminators of all other devices to OFF.

  1. Shut down Windows and turn the computer OFF.

  2. Verify that the power switch of the scanner is OFF.
    If the power switch is in the ON position, push the switch to set it to OFF.


  3. Plug the supplied power cord into the power connector on the back of the scanner.


  4. Connect the power cord into an AC outlet.

  5. Use the SCSI cable to connect the scanner to the computer.
