[. . . ] We recommend an Adaptec SCSI host adapter. Before connection, be sure the settings are correct; check the documentation for your adapter. The SprintScan 45 scanner is compatible with most Windows ASPI-supported adapters (such as Adaptec). For detailed information about installing the card, refer to the instructions provided with your adapter card. Connecting the scanner to your computer WARNING: ALL CONNECTIONS MUST BE MADE WITH THE POWER OFF ON THE SCANNER, THE COMPUTER, AND ALL OTHER CONNECTED EQUIPMENT. PAY STRICT ATTENTION TO THE SEQUENCE OF INSTRUCTIONS IN THIS SECTION. FAILURE TO COMPLY MAY RESULT IN DAMAGE TO YOUR COMPUTER AND/OR THE SCANNER. SUCH DAMAGE IS NOT COVERED BY THE WARRANTY. 1 Turn off your computer, and then turn off the scanner. 2 Connect the 25-pin end of the data cable to the SCSI port on the back of your computer and the 50-pin end to the 50-pin port on the back of the scanner (picture 2). 2 Warning: Use only the cable supplied with the scanner. 2-6 The second port (25-pin) can be used to connect another SCSI device to the chain, using another SCSI cable. 3 Terminate the signal at the last device in the chain. If the scanner is the last device, connect the terminator provided to the 50-pin port. Then connect the SCSI cable to the terminator (picture 3). Be certain to use only SCSI-specified cables for all connections in the chain. If no problems are detected, the READY light will stay lit. The cold cathode lamp will also stay on. 3 Once the ready light is lit, turn on your computer. 4 Setup and use 2-9 Using the film carriers The four-slide film carrier 1 With the text facing up and the hinge at the top, open the carrier flat as shown (picture 5). 2 Place up to four mounted 35mm slides in the spaces provided. Be sure the slide mounts fit properly in the recessed areas. The images should be right-side up and right-reading as you do so (picture 6). 3 Close the carrier carefully. 5 6 The 4x5 carrier (for 4x5 film) 1 To unlock the carrier, squeeze the two halves of the carrier together at the bottom edge (near the locking knob) with one hand while turning the locking knob in either direction, until the slot in the knob points to UNLOCK (picture 7). 7 2-10 2 Open the carrier flat. Insert a 4x5 chrome or negative so that the left edge is against the positioning pins (picture 8). Position the film so the image is right-reading and right-side up (emulsion-side down).
