Disconnect the power supply when opening the
device during maintenance or installation to
avoid exposure to hazardous laser light.
There is a safety device which allows the laser to
be switched on only if the motor is rotating above
the threshold for its correct scanning speed.
The laser beam can be switched off through a
software command (see also the WinHost Help
On Line).

complete Installation Manual.
DS2100A can be configured through the WinHost
Windows-based software program available on the
installation CD-ROM.
For configuration it is necessary to create a cable
connecting the scanner to the PC as indicated in the
“How To Build A Simple Interface Test Cable” section of
this guide.
POWER SUPPLY
- This product is intended to be installed by Qualified
Personnel only.
- All Models:
This accessory device is intended to be supplied by a UL
Listed or CSA Certified Power Unit with «Class 2» or LPS
power source which supplies power directly to the

Electrical Connections:
DS2100A is equipped with a cable terminated by a 25-pin female D-sub connector for connection to the power
supply and input/output signals. You can bring system cables directly to the 25-pin connector or you can connect
the scanner directly to one of the various C-Box models and bring system wiring to it (see the relative C-Box
Installation Manual).
CAUTION
The details of the connector pins are indicated in the following table:
(for C-Box 100)
Do not connect GND and SGND to different (external) ground references. GND and SGND
are internally connected through filtering circuitry which can be permanently damaged if
subjected to voltage drops over 0.8 Vdc.
