crap, yes. I've lost my mind. It's the older Imacon Photo, and yes, it is SCSI. Not sure if the card/scanner combo is also supported...

Think you'll need either a SCSI card or a Ratoc SCSI/Firewire converter. I have a Precision II which I am just about to hook up to a Mac Pro. imaconusers on yahoo groups is place to look. Current version of Flexcolor won't work, you need to dig in the archives as seen in this response from Ratoc when I enquired.
Here is the information for Imacon scanner with the FR1SX.
According to our record, it works with FlexColor 4.0.x on MacOS X.
But the FR1SX needs to be changed the firmware to version 1.23 for the FlexColor software. The firmware and the utility will come with the FR1SX CD-ROM. You can download it from our web site, too.

According to Imacon tech support, the new FlexColor software versions (starting from 4.5) does not support older SCSI models, such as the FlexFrame camera backs or Flextight Precision
scanners. For the FlexFrame and the Flextight, please use FlexColor 4.0.x.
Also, an optional AC adapter is needed.
Here is the spec of the AC adapter.
'Positive Tip polarity'(center "+", external "-"),
4.0 x 1.7 mm Tip and DC 5V / 2A
You can order it from our online shop, too.

The FR1SX has a high density 50 pin connector.
