1.1 PURPOSE
This document provides the information necessary to support the installation and site repair of the
DM100i/DM200i Series Digital Mailing System.
1.2 EQUIPMENT COVERED
This manual applies to the DM100i/DM200i Series and the kits required for digital mailing system
operation.
1.3 CONTENTS
This manual is organised as follows:
● Section 1 – Introduces the manual
● Section 2 – Lists material and equipment specications
● Section 3 – Presents removal and replacement procedures
● Section 4 – Offers Troubleshooting advice.
● Section 5 – Provides a full parts list.
1.4 SAFETY SUMMARY
Warning messages are used throughout this manual to alert you to potentially hazardous conditions.
These warnings are explained below.
Introduction • 1
1 • Introduction
WARNING — calls attention to improper practices that could cause injury.
●
● CAUTION — calls attention to improper practices that could damage the equipment or the material
being run.
● IMPORTANT — calls attention to practices that could adversely affect equipment operation, if
instructions are not followed exactly.
You must familiarise yourself with proper procedures and methods before you install, operate or service
the equipment to avoid personal injury or damage to the equipment. If you are responsible for training
service personnel or equipment operators, it is incumbent on you to explain safety precautions to your
students and encourage safety awareness.
The following is a list of general precautions which cannot be over emphasised:
● HIGH VOLTAGE is present at certain points in the equipment. INJURY or DEATH could result if
you fail to observe safety precautions.
● Know how to turn off power in the work area and how to summon help in case of emergency.
● Do not work on equipment under power unless absolutely necessary.
● When working on a live circuit, use extreme caution. Don’t grasp two sides of a live circuit at the
same time.
● Always use the right tools for the job.
● Treat every circuit like a gun which may be loaded. It may not be “live”, but be sure. Check with a
neon tester, a voltmeter, or simply unplug the machine.

1 • Introduction
● Use one hand when reaching into a circuit. By keeping one hand free, lethal current is less likely
to pass through vital organs. Observe this rule when connecting or disconnecting plugs or leads,
and when making any adjustments on a live circuit. Don’t underestimate the danger of shock: 1mA
(1/1000 ampere) is uncomfortable; 5 mA (1/200 ampere) is dangerous - the victim may jump back
and be injured; 12 mA (1/83 ampere) causes hand muscles to contract - the victim cannot free
himself; 24 mA (1/40 ampere) has proven fatal; and 100 mA (1/10 ampere) is likely to be fatal.
● Don’t reach into a circuit with metal tools, or while wearing rings or a watch. Even in low voltage
circuits, a metal object can short circuit two terminals.
● Don’t bypass safety devices. Three-wire outlets (220/240 VAC) are designed to ground equipment
to make it safe. If a live wire shorts to a grounded frame, the only result is an open fuse. If a live
wire shorts to an ungrounded frame, the frame itself becomes hot and potentially dangerous. A
fuse is a weak link in a circuit, designed to break down before anything else does. The maximum
safe current in a circuit is determined by the designers. Too large a fuse can pass excessive current, damaging expensive equipment. Interlock switches are designed to remove power from a
circuit when an access door, cover or panel is opened. When such a switch is “cheated” or otherwise disabled, a safety device has been bypassed. If you bypass an interlock for service or
diagnostic purposes, use extreme caution.
● If you use air pressure to clean a machine, use low pressure (30 psi or less) and use eye protec-
tion (goggles or face masks).
● When using solvents or cleaning uids, make sure ventilation is adequate.
1.5 EQUIPMENT SAFETY
Just by walking around, you yourself may carry a threat to the equipment, in the form of a high voltage
electrostatic charge. Your body acts as a giant capacitor which can store large amounts of electricity.
Walking across a rug can charge you with several thousand volts, which can discharge in a spark up
to an inch long.
Digital equipment can be easily damaged or destroyed by static charges. Microprocessors and other
ICs contain tiny transistors not much more than a millionth of an inch across, which operate at 5 to
12 volts. You don’t have to see a spark to ruin an IC — 50 volts is enough. Follow these guidelines to
protect sensitive equipment from static damage:
● Ground yourself before reaching into the equipment, or touching any circuit board or other electrical
component. Just touching a doorknob or metal workbench may be enough, but the best guarantee
is to turn the machine off but leave it plugged in, and ground yourself on the chassis, which is
grounded through the three-wire power cord. If you have access to one, bring a grounding strap
and use it.
● Be careful of rugs — even a few steps can recharge you. Re-ground yourself whenever you’ve
walked away and returned to the machine. Rugs are a major source of static buildup in the
body.

WARNING!
Always be sure the equipment is unplugged before you make any attempt
to perform the maintenance outlined in this manual. If you must work on a
"live" machine, note that line potential is present at the power panel and the
motherboard.
CAUTION: DO NOT attempt to adjust key timing parameters in the service menu
unless you have been trained and thoroughly understand what you're doing.
Otherwise you could damage the equipment.
● Take greater precautions as the objects you handle get smaller. A board in the machine is better
protected than one which is not plugged in; a chip on a board is better protected than one in your
hand.
● Stay away from metal conductors. The plastic and resin that chips and boards are made of are
much better insulators than metal. It’s most important to keep your hands away from any metal
which contacts the data. In particular, this means the long connector along the bottom of each
board, and the pins coming out of the chips. These signal and data lines are directly connected to
the fragile inner circuits of the chips. When handling a board, try not to touch the connector; when
handling a chip, try not to touch the pins.
