Connection
Use the appropriate instructions below to connect the reader to the ter-
minal, PC or other host device. The reader cable connection is secured
using the “clamshell” retainer referenced in the enlarged area of
Figure 1 .
Fit and clamp the retainer over the cable connector as shown in the illus-
tration, then fully seat the cable assembly into the reader, aligning both
the connector and the retainer boss with their respective openings.
Secure the captive screws.
RS-232 Serial Connection — Turn off power to the terminal/PC
and connect the reader to the terminal/PC serial port via the RS-232
cable as shown in
Figure 1 . If the terminal will not support POT (Power
Off the Terminal) to supply reader power, use the approved power sup-
ply (AC Adapter). Plug the AC Adapter barrel connector into the socket
on the RS-232 cable connector and the AC Adapter plug into a standard
power outlet.
