Umax mirage II not working, not recognized on xp

  • Eduardo Maldonado
    Eduardo Maldonado Aug 08, 2019

    Hi. I have a Mirage II A3 scanner that was working fine till I save it in a closet a few years ago. Now I need it again, but I don´t have the PC I used to have with ISA port...
    I finally found a brand new PCI card I had in another Umax scanner, so I connected it to the PCI slot in my actual PC. And I cannot connect the scanner... I installed the software correctly, but in Test mode, it gives me a Link failure. Besides, the scanner does its setup when powered on, the lamp goes from right to left, stays there a few seconds and return to its original position. But the UTA and READY lamps keep blinking...
    I found this page:https://ask.adaptec.com/app/answers/deta... that explains this can be fixed upgrading the software, but the link does no longer exist...
    Could you please send me the software I need to connect it..? It´s really important I can do this. I have a huge job to do but it doesn´t work... I´l be waiting for your answer. THANKS!!

Nissan throttle position sensor collects data on how hard you’re pushing the gas pedal, then relays this information to the ECU so it can tell the TCM which shift program to use, and what gear the transmission should be in. A P1705 OBDII trouble code means that there is either a short in the circuit, or the throttle position sensor itself has failed.

SOURCE: Umax Mirage II Flatbed scanner,3 flashing lights

Could be a SCSI termination issue. Try changing the SCSI address number on the scanner to a different one and make sure the chain is terminated properly. If there are multiple SCSI devices in the chain, disconnect all the others until you are sure the scanner is working then slowly add the other devices to the chain making sure everything works as each device is added. SCSI voodoo!

Umax astra 1200s with windows XP

This particular scanner is a nightmare to get working with XP

When it does work it is also prone to random errors.

On the UMAX australia site I found the information I needed to make it actually waok at all.


Below is part of a very old email that I went through with Umax maybe that will help you ?

It is quite an old scanner though.


Sorted out by steps as follows. Disconnect scanner usb lead from computer / hub 1. remove ALL umax software as issued on the cd and any upgrades 2. shut down restart 3. run norton (not the one button but the win doctor) to clean up any loose ends (important but dont know why ? does not work unless this has been done ??) 4. shut down restart. DO NOT connect scanner 5. Install software from original cd 6. do any umax software upgrades (ALSO IMPORTANT ) 7. shut down 8. plug scanner back in. 9. power everything back up 10. do new hardware wizard thing 11 swap driver to correct one as per instructions on your site somwhere ? all working I just did the norton one button on a second machine and it did not work so did all steps again but used norton win doctor as per step 3 and all good it worked a treat on two machine so it appears repeatable.

UMAX Mirage II Scanner

I have this scanner.... I had to take the scanner apart(take the cover off) very simple to do. This is a very simple fix. Obvious fix. You will see when you open it where the switch is. Mine was not making contact. You might be stuck with it in the on position once you fix it.

UMAX Mirage IIse Running on MAC OS

I had the same problem. I turned off the scanner and unplugged the transparency unit from the back of the scanner and restarted and it is working fine now. Hopefully this works for you as well.
