23 April 1993 BASIC OPERATION
4. BASIC OPERATION
4.1 ONE-SIDED ORIGINAL FEED
When an original is placed in the RDH, the Set Original indicator goes out and the RDH informs the copier that originals have been set.
When the Start key is pressed, the copier CPU sends the feed-in signal to the RDH. On receipt of this signal, the gate solenoid turn s on, ope nin g the original gate. At the same time the push-plate solenoid and the feed-in motor turn on. The push-plate an d pick-u p rolle rs mo ve th e en tire stack of originals to the feed posit ion .
After that, the feed-in mot or sta rts tu rnin g ag ain . The bot to m origin al is f ed in by the feed roller and the friction belts and de livere d to the exposure glass by the transport belt. After a very short period, th e seco nd origin al is also fe d in un til its lea ding edge reaches the regist rat ion sensor. This is in preparatio n fo r t he next copy cycle.
When the scanner reaches the return position, the copier CPU sends the feed-out and the feed-in signals to the RDH in order to feed in the second original. If the first original is A4/Letter size (side ways fe ed) or smaller, it is not fed out as the next original is transported to the exposure glass. It is just moved to the right side of th e exp osure glass. After completing the second scan, the third original is fed in and the first original is fed out from the unit. This continues until all origina ls have bee n cop ied .
The originals are stacked on the original table where they wait for the next copy cycle.
4.2 TWO-SIDED ORIGINAL FEED
Unlike one-sided original feed, the back-side of the orig ina l must be copied first to keep the originals and copies in correct order.
During original feed-in, the sequence is the same as fo r one-side d feed ; however, the RDH CPU also energizes the feed-out motor and the inverter solenoid a short time afte r t he origin al’s leading edge has passed the RDH registration sensor. The transport belt motor continues to feed the original until the inverter mechanism inverts the original for the back-side copying. Then, the transport belt moto r re verse s to feed the origin al towards the scale, and stops the original at the correct posit ion on the exposure glass.
RDH
When the scanner reaches the return position, the copier CPU sends the feed-out signal to the RDH CPU. The RDH then inverts the original in th e same way as for back-side copying .

When the Start Key is pressed, th e fe ed -in mot or sta rts turning counterclockwise. Drive is transferred to the pick-up rolle rs thro ug h gears [E ] and [G] and to the feed-in clutch throu gh gears [H] an d [J] . The timing of the feed roller rotation is controlled by the feed-in clut ch [K ].
Next, the feed-in motor reverses (clockwise). The pick-up rollers stop turning due to the one-way bearing inside the gears [F] an d [H] . However, the feed roller continues turning in the same direction through gears [H], [I], [J], [L], and the feed-in clutch.
Since the pull-out roller is insta lled on th e sha ft of gear [H], the pull-out roller always turns in the original feed direction whene ver the feed -in mot or is turned on.

ONE-TURN SENSOR 23 April 1993
6. ONE-TURN SENSOR
[B]
The one-turn senso r [A] is loca te d at the rear end of the pick-up roller sha ft. It counts the rotations of the pick-up rollers.
Every 360o, the notch [B] in the one-turn disk retu rns to the one-turn sensor and the sensor turns on.
When feeding an original, the RDH CPU monitors the rotatio n of the pick-up rollers through this sensor. It always stops the rollers with their flat surfaces facing up.

23 April 1993 ORIGINAL SETTING FOR RECYCLE
7. ORIGINAL SETTING FOR RECYCLE
[A]
[B]
When the Start Key is pressed , the original gate solenoid [A] is energized to open the original gat e. At th e same time, the push plate soleno id [B] is energized and the pick-up rollers start turning. The pick-up rollers and the push plate move the ent ire sta ck of originals to the feed-in sect ion .
At this time, the originals turn the recycle sensor on. After th at, th e orig ina ls are fed one by one from the bot to m o f th e stack. The recycle sensor stays on until the last original is fed.
The copied originals are fed out from the fe ed-out unit onto the original stacker where they wait for the next cycle.
When the last original is fed in fro m the feed-in section, the recycle sensor turns off. This informs the RDH CPU that all the originals have been fed in for the first set of copies.
Soon after the last original passes the recycle sensor, the original gate is opened again and the push plate and the pick-u p rolle rs mo ve the sta ck of originals to the feed-in section for the secon d cycle. This is the pre-stacking cycle. However, the last few origin als of the first cycle ha ve not fe d out yet, at this moment. In order to set them o n the pre-stacked originals, the origin al gate, and the push plate are energized again after the last original is fed out.

This recycle system increases the to tal copy productivity to 55 cpm for A4, or 8 1/2"x11" originals (sideways feed and 100% reproduction ratio).

Soon after the entire stack of the originals are move d to the fee d-in position (1), the feed-in clutch and the friction belt moto r turn on. The frict ion belt motor rotates for 50 milliseconds count er to the direct ion of the feed roller rotation to ensure the separation of the bottom original (2).
When the leading edge of the original reaches the registration sensor, the feed-in clutch turns off and the feed-in motor reverses (3). From this time onward, the pull-out rollers ta ke ove r and feed th e orig ina l to th e transport section.
The registration sen sor also serves to measure the original length. The RDH CPU determines the origina l size by counting how many pulses it receives while the original passe s t he se nso r.
The original width is checked by the origin al width sensor, which is located next to the registration sen sor.
The original stop position is determined by pulse cou nt from the time the original trailing edge passes the registratio n sen sor.

The feed-out motor drops to half of its normal spe ed 100 milliseconds after the original’s leading edge passe s the fee d-o ut sensor [C]. It stays at half speed until 180 milliseconds after th e original’s trailing edge passes the feed-out sensor. This lowe r spee d pre ven ts un eve n stacking of originals.
For B4/81/2" x 14" and larger originals, the feed-out motor changes its spe ed 280 milliseconds after the origin al’s lea din g ed ge passe s the fee d-o ut sensor.

ALTERNATE PAPER FEED 23 April 1993
11. ALTERNATE PAPER FEED
An alternate paper feed system can be used when the RDH and Finisher is installed.
This alternate paper feed system is a relat ively efficient way to make two or more two-sided copies from two or more one -side d orig inals when the copier is equipped with an RDH.
When making two-sided copies, first of all, the even pages of the originals placed on the RDH are copied to the pap er from the paper tray. They are then stored in the duplex tray. The n th e originals are recirculated, the odd pages of the originals are copied to the shee ts sto red in the duplex tray. When making two or more sets of copies, the even pages of the recirculated originals are copied and they are st ore d in the duplex tray. The odd pages of the recirculated originals are copied to the sheets stored in the duple x tray. There are many benefits for this system.
Reduced transport time:
Before performing the two-sided copy process, the one-sided copy which has been stored in the duplex tray is fed onto a point near the registra tio n rolle rs simultaneously with other copy processes, by which it can saving transp ort time.

– Operation –
(For example)
Two sets of two-sided copies are made fro m f our one-sided originals.
1) When the start key is presse d the 4th and 2nd originals a re scan ne d, then these copies are stacked in the duplex tray. The 3rd an d 1st originals have only passed over the expo sure glass [Fig 1].
2) The 4th original is scanned. The copy is stacke d in the duplex tray. Soon after this, the botto m copy in the duplex tray is fed until its leading edge reaches the duplex exit senso r. This is in prep aration for the reverse side copying [Fig 2].
3) The 3rd original is scanned. The cop y wh ich has bee n in th e sta nd -by position is fed for copyin g the 3rd original and then fed out ont o th e cop y tray [Fig 3].
4) The 2nd original is scanned and then it is stacke d in th e du ple x tray. Soon after this, the bot to m co py in th e du plex tray is fed in preparation fo r the reverse side copying [Fig 4].
5) The 1st original is scanned. The cop y wh ich has bee n in th e sta nd -by position is fed for copyin g the 1st original and then fed out ont o th e cop y tray [Fig 5].
6) The 4th original is fed in the scanner and it is fed out from the RDH without exposing. After this, the bottom copy in th e du plex tray is fed in preparation fo r the reverse side copying [Fig 6].
7) The 3rd original is scanned. The cop y wh ich has bee n in th e sta nd -by position is fed for copyin g the 3rd original and then fed out ont o th e cop y tray [Fig 6].
8) The 2nd original passes over the expo sure glass. After this, the bott om copy in the duplex tray is fed in prep ara tion for the reverse side cop ying [Fig 7].
9) The 1st original is scanned, the copy which has been in the stand-by position is fed for copyin g the 1st original and then fed out ont o th e cop y tray [Fig 7].

15.6 RDH LEADING EDGE REGISTRATION ADJUSTME N T
NOTE: Before confirming the original registration, make sure th at the main
frame registration is within specif icat ion s.
1. Confirm the original front side registra tion as follows:
1) Make a copy of the te st chart in platen mode (A4/81/2" x 11", sideways).
2) Make a copy of the test chart in RDH mode.
3) Compare the registratio n of the copy in pla te n mod e with that in RDH
mode, and confirm that there is no more th an a 1.0 mm dif fe ren ce.
4) If the differen ce is mo re th an 1.0 mm, adju st th e registration by using
the copier’s SP mode ( SP Adjustment – PAGE 6).

2. Confirm the original reverse side registration as follows:
1) Make a copy of the test cha rts 2n d side in platen mode (A4/81/2" x 11",
sideways).
2) Make a copy of the test chart in RDH 2-sided mod e.
3) Compare the registratio n of the copy in pla te n mod e with that in RDH
2-sided mode, and confirm that there is no more than a 2.0 mm difference.
4) If the differen ce is mo re th an 2.0 mm, remove the left scale [A] (2
screws), then set a sheet of A4/8 1/2" x 11" sideways pa per [ B] on the exposure glass edge as shown.
NOTE: Without the left scale, the original jams when it strikes the
exposure glass edge. This sheet of paper prevents that.
5) Set DIP SW 1 and 2 on the main PCB as follows:

6) Set a test chart on the RDH, then press SW 3 to feed the test chart through the RDH.
7) When the test chart st ops o n th e exp osure glass, gently pull off th e sheet of paper set in step 4), then press SW 3 again to feed the test chart in the reverse direction.
8) Open the RDH slowly so that the test chart [C] does not move from the stop position.
9) Confirm that the test chart has stop ped at the correct position, 10 ± 2.0 mm from the scale edge (0 position) [D].
10) If the test chart did not stop at the correct position, adjust the registration by using the copier’s SP mode ( SP Adjustment –
