Preparing the Checks
When you have a deck of checks that needs to be processed, prepare the
checks as described below:
•
Grab the entire deck of checks and lightly tap the bottom of the deck
against a flat surface with the objective of aligning the bottom edge of
all the checks in the deck.
•
Also, grab the entire deck of checks and lightly tap with your hand the
right edge of the deck with the objective of aligning the leading edge of
all the checks in the deck.
Feeding the Checks Automatically
The Input Hopper can hold up to 70 checks. To feed a deck of checks,
proceed as follows:
•
Stack the checks in the Input Hopper as shown in Figure 1.
•
Slide the deck forward to the Loading Zone Marker so that all leading
edges are between the arrows as shown in Figure 1.
With a small footprint and striking modern design, Excella is an auto-feed
check reader which captures both the front and back image of checks in
a single pass at 45+ DPM. The automatic feeder has a capacity of up to
70 documents to easily support even the most active check processing
applications. Excella will communicate with the Host system using a USB 2.0
(USB 1.1 compatible) or Ethernet interface.
