A PC can be quickly connected to the C-BOX 100 (and consequently to the scanner
auxiliary interface) through the internal 9-pin connector. This allows monitoring of the
data transmitted by the scanner or configuration through the WinHost utility (see the
scanner Installation Manual for more details). The scanner auxiliary interface signals
are also available on the internal spring clamp connectors.
After making system cabling and switch settings (see sub-paragraphs under 2.4),
connect the scanner to the 25-pin connector on the left side of the C-BOX 100
housing.
Switch ON the C-BOX 100 power switch (see Figure 6). The correct polarity of the
power connection is signaled by the green LED, while the red LED turns on in case
of wrong polarity.
NOTE
Power is supplied to the connected scanner (25-pin connector only)
through an electronic circuit which:
- limits the slew rate of the power supplied to the scanner and,
therefore, the inrush current at the input capacitors;
- provides short circuit protection and over current protection
(automatic retry).
After system functioning has been verified, close the C-BOX 100 using the 4 cover
screws making sure the rubber seal is fitted correctly between the parts of the
housing.
