5.3.3.6 Setting Multifeed Detection Parameters

The multifeed detector uses ultrasonic technology to sense air gaps between documents.
Regardless of the documents’ thickness or size, the multifeed detector can sense whether
or not more than one document has been fed through the feeder at once.

NOTE:

You are able to set multifeed detection parameters in ADF mode, but this function is
turned off in Manual mode. However, the parameters remain in the same position as
they were set when you return to ADF mode.

The scanner can be programmed to elicit an audible alarm and stop the machine, elicit an
audible alarm and continue scanning, or ignore when a multifeed is detected. Follow the
directions below to set multifeed detection parameters:

NOTE:

Settings are restored at power up. Setting these parameters sets the default behavior on
detection of a multifeed.

1. From the READY menu, press the RIGHT key until you reach the USER SETUP

menu. Press F3 NEXT until you reach the MULTIFEED MODE menu.

2. From the MULTIFEED MODE menu, press +/- to select STOP, NOTIFY, or OFF,

depending on what you wish to occur. Select STOP if you want the scanner to beep,
display an error message, and stop feeding paper when a multifeed is detected. Select
NOTIFY if you want the scanner to beep and display a warning message when a
multifeed is detected. The feeder continues to feed paper in this mode. Select OFF to
ignore multifeeds. No multifeed indication is given in this mode.

3. Press CLEAR to return to the READY menu.

5.3.3.7 SCSI Setup

If you have a SCSI scanner, follow the directions below to set up the state of active
termination and select the SCSI ID. This menu is only available if a SCSI card is installed.

1. From the READY menu, press the RIGHT key until you reach the USER SETUP

menu. Press F3 NEXT until you reach the SCSI IDENTIFIER menu.

2. The menu displays the currently selected SCSI IDENTIFIER #. If the assigned

number conflicts with an existing SCSI device, press +/- to select a new number
between 0 and 7.
