Setting up the Scanner

Environmental Requirements

¥ The surface on which the scanner is placed must be ßat, stable and
free from vibrations. If the scanner is shaken or moved while scan-
ning, your results may be affected.
¥ The scanner must be placed in an area that provides plenty of room
for the ßatbed drawer to extend without hitting anything or block-
ing a passageway, such as a door.
¥ Keep the scanner away from sources of heat, such as direct sunlight
or a radiator. Warm temperatures will degrade the quality of your
scansÑfor best results, work in a cool environment.
¥ The scanner must be operated away from sources of strong electro-
magnetic interference. Although the scanner complies with all regu-
lations governing electromagnetic immunity and Imacon has taken
every reasonable step to make the unit immune to electromagnetic
interference, it is still a precision electronic device so strong radio
waves can interfere with your scans.
¥ If the scanner has been in a colder environment (e.g. outside or in
storage) just before you set it up in a warmer room, then wait about
two hours before using itÑotherwise, condensation may form,
which will prevent the scanner from operating correctly.
¥ Avoid using the scanner in areas where there is a high level of dust
(such as in a workshop).
¥ Always keep the ßatbed and support drawer closed when you are
not using the scanner.

Electrical Requirements

The scanner requires a mains voltage of between 100 and 240 V AC at a
frequency of 50 to 60 Hz. This is within the normal wall-socket power
standards of most countries. Do not attempt to use Flextight with any
power source that supplies electricity using speciÞcations out of this
range.
The scanner and all devices attached to the scanner (computer, monitor,
SCSI devices, etc.) must be grounded (i.e. use a three-point electrical
connection).
