Cabled Operation

The HE40T is available with USB, RS-232 and PS2 cables. All of the cables are connected to the HE40T with a 8-pin DIN connector. Different cables may be required for different hosts.

• HE40T with H2 Cabled Handle - The 8-pin DIN connection is at the bottom of the handle. Firmly push the 8-pin connector into the bottom of the handle. The cable has a locking mechanism that will firmly hold the cable in place (Figure 1-11). To detach the cable from the reader, you must pinch the plastic on the 8-pin DIN (Figure 1-11) and pull back to disengage the connector.
