ETH over USB

Do this the FIRST TIME you connect your scanner:

*If you have a live Ethernet cable, skip this and follow the “Network Mode — Ethernet” instructions above. This will enable both Ethernet and Ethernet-over-USB operation. If you do NOT have a live Ethernet cable, proceed as follows:

Step 1: Connect the power cord ONLY.

Step 2: Turn the power on. This will configure the scanner to USB mode.

Step 3: Use the SimpleSwitch function to switch to network mode (see below).

Step 4: Plug in the USB cable and power on the scanner to use Ethernet over USB.

Step 3

Step 4

Start with the power turned OFF and only the power cable plugged in.

Step 1: Press the power button and hold for several seconds.

Step 2: Wait until you hear an audible “chirp.”

Step 3: Continue holding the button for several more seconds.

Step 4: Wait for a second chirp.

This process takes about 10 seconds. The scanner will power off and will restart next time in the opposite connection mode.
