Recommended Configuration of the Host Computer
The scanner is designed to communicate with Windows NT and Windows 2000
platforms with the following configuration.
IMPORTANT: To ensure proper operation of the scanner, use the Ultra-Wide
SCSI board provided with the scanner.
Built-in SCSI interfaces in some computers may interfere with the
provided Ultra-Wide SCSI board.
Minimum Host Computer Hardware Requirements
• Dual Pentium III/600 MHz
• 512 MB memory
• 10 GB available disk space
• Dedicated SCSI host adapter (provided with scanner)
NOTES: The hardware configuration is a minimum; for higher performance, a
high speed and larger memory capacity machine is required.
The SCSI board must be dedicated to running only the HR 500 Film
Scanner.
A SCSI cable connects the host computer to the scanner. This interface enables
the transfer of digital image data from the scanner to the host computer.
Minimum Software Requirements
• Windows NT 4.0, Service Pack 6 for using the scanner and software
• Adobe Photoshop 5.5 or higher for validating operation of the scanner
