For your convenience, this guide provides minimal configuration and option
settings for your scanner's RS-232 interface. For more detailed programming
information and features, reference the SP400 Programming Guide (R44-1020) or the
QuickScan 6000/6000 Plus Programming Guide (R44-1540), available from your dealer.

To disconnect the I/F cable at the scanner, insert a bent paper clip or 0.050" hex
driver into the opening marked CABLE RELEASE as shown in Figure 1, and push
inward. Once the connector latch is released, continue to hold the latch in while
carefully pulling the cable free.
Connect the QuickScan 6000/6000 Plus scanner to your system using ONLY the
proper PSC approved QuickScan 6000/6000 Plus I/F cable.
