Installing the Hardware - Laptops

When the software has been installed and the PC turned off the laptop can be

connected to the I.M.T. box.

The I.M.T. scroll card inside the I.M.T. box has been configured prior to despatch for the

settings required in your country. Therefore it should not be necessary to open the

I.M.T. box or change jumpers or dip switch settings.

1.7.1 Connecting the I.M.T. Box to a Laptop

1.

Insert the PCMCIA SCSI card into your laptop

2.

Connect one end of the SCSI cable supplied with the SCSI card to the PCMCIA card

and the other to the SCSI port on the I.M.T. box

3.

Connect a power cord to the appropriate input of the I.M.T. box (you have a choice of

IEC mains or 12V DC)

1.7.2 Connecting a Scroll Control

Laptops normally use the I.M.T. scroll control. The I.M.T. scroll control port is the 9 pin

analogue port on top of the I.M.T. box. WinCueProNews expects a scroll control to be

connected to this port.

The I.M.T. scroll control will not work if it is attached to any other port on your PC.
