Duoscan Hid

[Jaska62]

Agfa DuoScan HiD scsi scanner won't work.
I have G4 466 pci-scsi card. Every-time I try to scan with any software (fotolook, VueScan) the progress ends up when calibrating the lamp.
Fotolook won't work at all. I have read from the manual that there should be Firmware 1.8 with fotolook 3.6 and I have 1.7. I think this is the reason for my problems (?). But where can I get that firmware. There's no firmwares in agfa's support site. Where can I find fotolook
3.5 to try if that should work.
My os is 10.2.8. I have also classic 9.2 and fotolook won't work either there.

What kind of PCI SCSI card is it? The DuoScan will not work with an Adaptec 2906 card, which I believe was the SCSI card option on the G4 machines:

There are currenly not so many SCSI cards that do work with Mac OS X and scanners. Our scanners were tested with AttoTech ExpressPCI PSC, Adaptec 2906, Adaptec 2930, and Initio Bluenote. The Initio Bluenote card needs the latest firmware update (at least version 3.04). Check our ReadMe files for more scanner-specific details.
Remarks:

Arcus 1200: not with AttoExpress PCI PSC.
SnapScan 1236s, SnapScan 1236 Artline: only with Adaptec 2906 and Initio Bluenote.
DuoScan T2000XL: only with Initio Bluenote.
DuoScan: not with Adaptec 2906
