Imagesetter Installation Verification

Connecting an Imagesetter

Connection to an Imagesetter is through a fiber optic cable and the SFL card on the Brisque.

1. Verify that the Imagesetter is powered on, connect the fiber optic cable to the VSLI board on the Imagesetter, inserting one end of each cable into the plugs on the VSLI board (for example, refer to Figure 1-11. Connecting Fiber Optic Cable to Dolev 4press).
2. Power on the Brisque if it is not yet running (refer to Powering Up the Brisque).
3. Do not proceed further than the Console Login before connecting the fiber optic cable.
4. When the Brisque is powered on, one connector on the SFL board emits a fine red light, connect the cable from the Imagesetter which does not emit any light to this connector.
5. Similarly, connect to the SFL connector the second part of the optical cable.
