3. Operations
A. Sensor input circuit
[a] Transport path entry sensor (PIS)
PIS is a photo interrupter which integrates a light emitting diode and photo transistor. A document from the copier is detected by the lever-system
actuator. The light path is interrupted when document presence.
The signal is passed to the CPU (IC9-61 pin) through the noise filter of R13 and C17.
Logic of the signal inputted to the CPU: Document presence
R45 is the current limiting resistor of LED. R67 is the sensor load resistor.

[b] Treatment tray exit sensor (JTES)
JTES is the sensor same as the transport entry port sensor (PIS). The document discharged to the treatment tray is detected by the lever-system
actuator. The light path is interrupted when document presence.
The signal is passed to the CPU (IC9-59 pin) through the noise filter of R14 and C18.
Logic of the signal inputted to the CPU: Document presence
R46 is the current limiting resistor of LED. R68 is the sensor load resistor.
