Installation Guide for the OpScan iNSIGHT 70 Scanner
•
The input hopper holds the forms that are ready to be scanned. When the
scanner is made READY, the input hopper raises; when the scanner stops, the
hopper lowers, allowing you to load more documents. The input hopper
accepts stacks of up to 750 forms, depending on the thickness and condition of
the sheets.
•
The input hopper height adjustment switch allows you to adjust the height
of the input hopper so that the scanner can pick a sheet. Refer to the Operator's
Guide for the OpScan iNSIGHT™ 70 Scanner for instructions on setting this
adjustment.
•
The output hopper receives the forms that are successfully scanned. When the
scanner starts, the output hopper is raised; when the scanner stops, the stacker
is lowered, allowing you to remove the sheets. Before scanning, the output
sheet stop adjustment knob should be set to the length of the scanned forms
so they will stack properly. The output hopper height adjustment switch
adjusts the height at which the hopper halts. Refer to the Operator's Guide for
the OpScan iNSIGHT™ 70 Scanner for instructions on making these
adjustments.
•
The scanner picks the forms from the input hopper one at a time. From there,
the form moves along the transport bed by rollers that continually drive the
form into the rail to remove possible skew. The form then passes through the
read heads where the cameras capture the image of the form.
• The form now goes through the turnaround station where the form is turned
over and sent to the wait station . At this point the software application
determines where the form should go. If the system includes the optional
transport printer , then any information that needs to be printed on the form
will be sent there. The form is imprinted as it passes over the print head. The
form is then sent to one of two places:
–
The output hopper accepts up to 750 forms, depending on the thickness
and condition of the sheets. This hopper is reserved for forms that are read
with no errors.
–
The select stacker accepts up to 200 forms, depending on the thickness
and condition of the sheets. The software controls the stacker's use. It is
used for forms with correctable and non-correctable system errors. For
example, if the system detects a multiple response on a grid, it sends the
form to the select stacker. The operator can fix the form and scan it again;
or, if the wrong form was scanned, it could be sent to the select stacker.
