1. General
Congratulations on your selection of the Unisys MyVision X!
The Unisys MyVision X is a new generation of check scanners.
With a small footprint, sleek design and quiet operation, the Unisys MyVision X fits perfectly in a small
area such as a teller window, or on the back counter of bank branches.
The Unisys MyVision X incorporates the latest, state-of-the-art technology and the latest standards for
check processing in the marketplace.
A unique, patent-pending 3-mode feeder can be found in the Unisys MyVision X, allowing for single item
feeding, up to 30 items batch feeding with single hand insertion (in this case it is always possible to insert
documents with one hand only) or up to 100 items batch insertion by manually moving the pressure plate.
Options with limited feeder capacity are also available to cover specific customer needs.
MICR reading technology available with the Unisys MyVision X is comparable to the larger and faster
reader sorter, thanks to the Panini MICR Plus
TM
technology.
Taking advantage of the most up to date technology, the Unisys MyVision X connects to computers via
USB2.0 interface, allowing for fast data transfer at no additional cost.
A rear ink jet endorser can also be found on the Unisys MyVision X.
The Panini Vision API is standard on the MyVision X, guaranteeing easy and reliable software integration.
Finally, the Unisys MyVision X has been designed specifically to allow for entire track accessibility,
including scanner area (patent pending), for easy intervention and for maintenance purposes.

OPERATOR MANUAL Operating your Unisys MyVision X
The feeder extension is designed to support all documents anticipated to be processed by the MyVisionX.
Markets or applications that process a large number of long documents (longer than 8 inches) may find it
necessary to apply the optional extension plate for better document support, reducing the risk of image
skewing, MICR rejects, etc. Assembly is made by sliding the extension plate, face side up, along the bottom
side of the feeder extension into the support notches until the plate snaps into place (Fig.8). The lock tabs
should securely fit into the round holes and the short and long tabs should be fully inserted into the
support notches (Fig.9).
To remove, firmly grip the feeder extension and the extension plate and pull apart.

3.3 Power Cable Connection
Before connecting the scanner to your PC, make sure to locate the unit on a flat surface near the PC, away
from direct light and from electromagnetic equipment.
Warning: The electromagnetic emission from a CRT monitor can produce interference and affect the
MICR reading; therefore place the MyVision X as far as possible from the CRT.
1. Plug the power cord connector in the Power Supply socket (Fig.10).
2. Plug the Power Supply cable in the MyVision X power connector (Fig.11).
3. The MyVision X should be plugged into a dedicated electrical power outlet. The power supply will be
100-240 VAC (no power selection required), and the frequency 50/60 Hz. If you are not sure of the type
of power available, consult your Service Representative or local power company.
Note: There is no LED power indication upon connecting the MyVision X. LED status indicators only
illuminate when the application connects to the MyVision X unit. See section 4.1.
