Step 3 — Connect the IEEE 1394 Cable
1
Make sure that the scanner is off
2
Connect the IEEE 1394 cable
Connect the supplied IEEE 1394 cable as shown below. Connect the scanner directly to
the computer; do not connect the cable via an IEEE 1394 hub or adapter.
Connecting the IEEE 1394 Cable
Connect the cable as shown. When connecting the cable to the computer, use a six-pin
IEEE 1394 (Firewire) terminal like that shown in the cross-section below. Attempting to
insert the connectors in another orientation or using the wrong connector could not only
damage the connector, but also the scanner or computer.
Connecting the Scanner
• Do not connect or disconnect IEEE 1394 cables while Nikon Scan is starting or after it has started.
• The scanner may not function as expected when used with other IEEE 1394 devices. Should the scan-
ner not function as expected, use the scanner with all other IEEE 1394 devices disconnected. Do not
connect two or more scanners to the computer simultaneously.
• Do not connect or disconnect USB or IEEE 1394 interface cables or operate camera control software for
digital cameras connected via USB while the scanner status LED is blinking.
• After disconnecting the cable, wait a few seconds before connecting it again.
Computers with Four-Pin Connectors
The supplied IEEE 1394 cable can not be connected to computers with a four-pin DV connector. Use a
cable with one six-pin and one four-pin connector or a six-to-four pin adapter.
Align rounded edge of connector (circled above at
right) with matching curve on scanner or computer IEEE
1394 (Firewire) terminal (above at left).
