INTRODUCTION

2 Outline of the Manual

This Service Manual provides basic facts and figures need to service the Card Reader-C1/

D1 in the field, and consists of the following:

Chapter 1 Introduction outline, specifications, types of cards Chapter 2 Electrical System outline of card detection Chapter 3 Installation site requirements and installation procedure Appendix general circuit diagram

The following rules apply throughout this Service Manual:

1. Each chapter contains sections explaining the purpose of specific functions and the relationship between electrical and mechanical systems with reference to the timing of operation. In the diagrams, accompanies the symbol nal. The expression “turn on the power” means flipping on the power switch, closing the front door, and closing the delivery unit door, which results in supplying the machine with power.

2. In the digital circuits, ‘1’ is used to indicate that the voltage level of a given signal is “High,” while ‘0’ is used to indicate “Low.” (The voltage value, however, differs from circuit to circuit.) In addition, the asterisk (*) as in “DRMD*” indicates that the DRMD signal goes on when ‘0’. In practically all cases, the internal mechanisms of a microprocessor cannot be checked in the field. Therefore, the operations of the microprocessors used in the machines are not discussed: they are explained in terms of from sensors to the input of the DC controller PCB and from the output of the DC controller PCB to the loads. The descriptions in this Service Manual are subject to change without notice for product improvement or other purposes, and major changes will be communicated in the form of Service Information bulletins. All service persons are expected to have a good understanding of the contents of this Service Manual and all relevant Service Information bulletins and be able to identify and isolate faults in the machine.

INTRODUCTION

CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION

1 Outline

A card reader is designed to read data stored on a plastic card (coded group No.) by an

optical or magnetic means to enable control of prints made by its host machine according to group.

The PDL output may be controlled by setting IDs and ID Nos. (Each card is given a

unique ID, and ID Nos. are registered in user mode.)

A card reader may be either of the following two depending on how it may be installed:

• Card Reader-C1 (external installation type)

• Card Reader-D1 (built-in type)

Features

1. The output (number of prints) may be monitored in terms of individual groups and all groups. In addition, setting a unit price will enable monitoring of expenses on an individual or total basis.

2. A limit may be imposed on the number of prints that may be made by each group.

3. A specific group may be denied access.

4. A group whose output count is ‘0’ is skipped when statistics are collected, reducing the work.
