Testing the Scanner and the Connection
you are now ready to check if the scanner is operating properly and if the devices are correctly connected to your macintosh.
check if the scanner is properly unlocked.
1 connect the power cord to the scanner.
make sure that you are using the correct power cord for the voltage in your area. double-check whether the voltage indicated on the back panel of the scanner corresponds with the voltage in your area. if not, contact your dealer or agfa service representative.
2 check if the scsi cable is properly connected.
3 switch on the scanner.
while starting up the scanner, the power indicator (green) switches on after which the progress indicator switches on. the scanner performs a self-test for about 25 seconds. at the end of the self-test, the progress indicator will automatically go out if there are no problems. if a malfunction is detected during the self-test, that is, if the progress indicator remains blinking, consult appendix a: troubleshooting.
4 switch on any other scsi device you may have attached, and wait for it to start up.
5 switch on your macintosh.
as it starts up, your macintosh performs a series of tests to verify the correct system configuration.
6 open the scsi id checker.
7 verify whether the macintosh sees the scanner at its proper scsi address.
in case of problems, consult appendix a: troubleshooting.
8 close the scsi id checker.
