Mil spec Connector

The 19-pin male Mil spec connector
was designed to connect a communi
cation cable from the scanner to a host
device. The communication cable may
include a power supply or it may be de
signed to draw power directly from the
host device. The standard TECH 7 has
one connector. (When atrium option is
installed, a second connector is
installed on the unit to connect the
MX001 Industrial Control Interface
box.)
