That confuses me even more. The sticker on the mech in the machine
says it is for the ES III/ ES IV. The scan switch does make the
carriage move though, which I wouldn't think it would do if it was
using AC instead of DC. There are two mech's on ebay that I have been
staring at the pictures of, but they don't mention what machine they
came out of.

Thanks,
Mark

The ES160 mech works on AC voltage and the ESII works on DC voltage. The
scan switch didn't use optics until the ESIII system came out. I don't have
a mech laying around right now, but if I find one, I'll snap a pic. The
switch you are looking for is similar on both models.

I recently bought a Prestige ES160, the manual I have unfortunately is
for an es II 160. They seem to be almost identical, but I'm not sure.
