measurement will be executed continuously, once every second.

The cameras left, middle and right are identified as the left, middle and right cameras
when looking at the scanner from the operator’s view (i.e. f rom the front of the scanner).
Each camera has a set of two stitching coordinate boxes. A stitching coordinate box exists
of four quadrants.

of all cameras are in the specified tolerances.

Ideally, the stitching indicators (the small dots inside the four-quadrant boxes) should be
positioned close to the center of the crosshairs.

If a stitching adjustments is necessary, it has to be done by a trained technician.

Picture 30: Image Control 1

In general:

• Tap the + or – to change the values in steps of one.

• Tap the + or – and hold for at least five steps, then the value changes in steps of five.

B.4.2.1.1 Brightness

The brightness control defines the resulting brightness of the image. A lower value results
in darker images, a higher value results in brighter images.

Values close to 0% or 100% may result in unwanted artifacts.

B.4.2.1.2 Contrast

The contrast control defines the contrast of t he image. A lower value results in an image
that is smoother, a higher value shows more details and the image will become crisper.

Values close to 0% or 100% may result in unwanted artifacts.

B.4.2.1.3 Gamma

The gamma control defines the gamma correction used by the scanner camera. A value
of 1,6 is a good approximation. The range of values are from 0 (no gamma) to 2,5
(maximum gamma).

A higher gamma value shows more details in darker areas and compresses bright areas.

Page 38 Manual

B.4.2.1.4 Sharpness

An automatic sharpening algorithm is applied to the image before any other operation is
performed.

The value zero disables the function. Very high values m ay produce artifacts, depending
on the document characteristics.

B.4.2.1.5 Resolution

This parameter defines the scanner’s resolution. This button offers three ways to set the
desired value:

• Tap the + or – to change the resolution in steps of one DPI.

• Tap the + or – and hold for at least five steps, then the value changes in steps of five

DPI.

Tap the numeric value in the middle of the button. This will step through the list of
available resolutions.

B.4.2.1.6 Color mode

The color mode parameter defines the color mode if scanning in color or the algorithm
used for binarization in binary mode.

 24b color 24 bit color mode
 8b color 8 bit color mode
 Grayscale 8 bit grayscale mode
 Binary 1 bit black/white mode
 Photo 1 bit black/white mode with dithering. Dithering means that finest details in

the im age are optimized by rastering.

This control also influences the compression method that is offered in the File Control
screen.

Fixed: Merges the image data at a specified offset area, resulting from the camera

calibration.

Adapt.1D: Recommended for all documents with good paper quality and plain surface.

It results in high throughput with large-sized documents.

Adapt.2D: Default setting, recommended for all documents with crumpled and uneven

surface. Merge the image data of the cameras dynamically. Reduce the
throughput but improves the results with problematic documents.

Available are Black Cut, Auto and Fixed.
Black cut: All color values in the image which are below the threshold for black are

displayed as black.

Auto: Activates the threshold for black and the automatic brightness control.

Automatic brightness control means the brightness range of the image is
expanded to the maximum range of the scanner. This converts the darkest
areas of the image to solid black and the brightest areas to solid white.

Fixed: Switches off the exposure correction mode.

images consecutively. The second image will be sent without scanning the
document again.

The start is defined in Start Page (see chapter B.4.3.1.2).

If the value (in pixels) is negative, the resulting image will be smaller than the document. If
the value is positive some of the background will remain in the scanned image.

B.4.3.2.2 Auto density

The Auto density function detects the edges of a document only if t hey are surrounded
by a dark background.

This control specifies the density level used to decide whether a pixel belongs to the

B.4.5.1 Start button

This setting defines the start method of the scanner.

• Direct The scan starts when the scanner receives the start command from
the application.

• Wait The scan will only start if the start button in the touch panel is pressed.
The start button can also be a foot pedal.

• Always The document transport starts immediately after the start command is
sent from the application and runs continuously until the applications
sends a stop command.

• Quick Aft er the scanner receives the start command from the application it
waits for a document to be inserted. When a document is detected in
the transport, the scanner starts scanning after the predefined delay
time.

The delay time can be defined in “Feeder delay” (chapter B.4.5.4).
When t he document has pas sed the paper-out sensors, the transport

motor stops and the scanner waits for the next document.
This mode is recommended when scanning fragile documents with

batch scanning software, e.g. S2N BatchScanWizard.

Manual Page 49

B.4.5.2 Transport

This setting defines the transport speed of the scanner.

• Normal Standard transport speed depending on the selected scan resolution,
i.e. the higher the scan resolution, the slower the transport speed.

• Slow T he scanning speed is reduced and the paper handling is relaxed, in
order to make the handling of sensitive documents safer. This can also
be helpful for untrained operators.

B.4.5.3 Scan mode

This setting defines the scanning mode.

• H. Quality : Reduces t he scanning speed to achieve the best quality.

• Fast Reduces the exposure time but the resolution as well as all as other

parameters remain the same.

B.4.5.4 Feeder delay

This setting defines the delay between detecting a document in the paper feed and
starting the paper transport.

A value of zero disables the delay.
The time delay is specified in seconds.

B.4.5.5 Doc. Output

This setting defines the paper handling after the scan sequence is finished.

• Eject: The document will be transported through the scanner and ejected at
the back side.

• Rewind: The document will be transported through the scanner and after
finishing the scan sequence, it will be returned to the document desk.
At the document desk it will be held in the start position.

Exception: If the start method “Always” is selected, the document will

not be held in start position.

• Hold Stops the document transport after the document passes the paper-out
sensors and holds it with the transport rollers.
