(5) Stapling timing (3 originals, 3 copies)
4. Electric circuit operations
A. Composition of functions
The functions of this machine are largely classified into the following
six blocks: the transport drive system, the bin unit drive system, the
stapler unit drive system*, the guide bar drive system, and the control
system.
B. Outline of the electric circuit
The electrical control of this machine is made by the sorter controller.
The major rolls of the IC on the sorter controller are as follows:
