Each Q-Scan PC comes with a special adapter called a SIKA cable. This cable must be placed between the
Q-Scan and the computer. You may extend this cable with a standard 9 Pin to 9 Pin Male to Female cable
found at most stores where computers are sold. DO NOT EVER connect the Q-Scan to your PC without the
SIKA cable as serious damage to your PC can occur.

For those who would like to make their own cable we have provided this cabling guide.

THE CUSTOM SIKA CABLE SHOULD BE WIRED AS FOLLOWS:
