CHAPTER 5. CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
[1] Circuit description
1. General description
The compact design of the control PWB is obtained by using ROCK-
WELL fax engine in the main control section and high density printing
of surface mounting parts. Each PWB is independent according to its
function as shown in Fig. 1.
2. PWB configuration
Fig. 1
1) Control PWB
The control PWB controls peripheral PWBs, mechanical parts, trans-
mission, and performs overall control of the unit.
This machine employs a 1-chip modem (R96DFXL-CID) which is
installed on the control PWB.
2) TEL/LIU PWB
This PWB controls connection of the telephone line to the unit.
3) Power supply PWB
This PWB provides voltages of +5V, and +24V to the another PWB.
4) Panel PWB
The panel PWB allows input of the operation keys.
5) CCD PWB
This PWB controls the pickup optical device.
6) LCD PWB
This PWB controls the LCD display.
3. Operational description
Operational descriptions are given below:
•
Transmission operation
When a document is loaded in standby mode, the state of the docu-
ment sensor is sensed via the 1 chip fax engine (SFE-LC). If the
sensor signal was on, the motor is started to bring the document into
the standby position. With depression of the START key in the off-
hook state, transmission takes place.
Then, the procedure is sent out from the modem and the motor is
rotated to move the document down to the scan line. In the scan
processor, the signal scanned by the CCD is sent to the internal
image processor and the AD converter to convert the analog signal
into binary data. This binary data is transferred from the scan proces-
sor to the image buffer within the RAM and encoded and stored in the
transmit buffer of the RAM. The data is then converted from parallel
to serial form by the modem where the serial data is modulated and
sent into the line.
•
Receive operation
There are two ways of starting reception, manual and automatic.
Depression of the START key in the off-hook mode in the case of
manual receive mode, or CI signal detection by the LIU in the auto-
matic receive mode.
First, the SFE-LC controls the procedure signals from the modem to
be ready to receive data. When the program goes into phase C, the
serial data from the modem is converted to parallel form in the
modem interface of the 1 chip fax engine (SFE-LC) which is stored in
the receive buffer of the RAM. The data in the receive buffer is
decoded software-wise to reproduce it as binary image data in the
image buffer. The data is DMA transferred to the recording processor
within the SFE-LC which is then converted from parallel to serial form
to be sent to the thermal head. The data is printed line by line by the
SFE-LC which is assigned to control the motor rotation and strobe
signal.
•
Copy operation
To make a copy on this facsimile, the COPY key is pressed when the
machine is in stand-by with a document on the document table and
the telephone set is in the on-hook state.
First, depression of the COPY key advances the document to the
scan line. Similar to the transmitting operation, the image signal from
the CCD is converted to a binary signal in the DMA mode via the 1
chip fax engine (SFE-LC) which is then sent to the image buffer of the
RAM. Next, the data is transferred to the recording processor in the
DMA mode to send the image data to the thermal head which is
printed line by line. The copying takes place as the operation is
repeated.
