Description of the reader
The carriage has three positions:
Closed: The whole carriage is inside of the housing and the Frontdoor is closed. This is
the stand-by or off position.
Measurement: The front of the carriage is ejected of the reader housing in order to let
the operator place the strip onto the three-belt conveyor.
Maintenance: The carriage is fully ejected. In this position you can remove the belts and
cylinders for cleaning.
CAUTION! The carriage movement is controlled by the reader, never try to move
it manually, not even when the reader is in stand-by or turned-off position! If the
power shuts down when the carriage is ejected or an error occures, turn the
reader off and on. The carriage will find its normal position automatically.
The used strips are collected in a waste bin located under the conveyor inside the Com-
biScan
®
500 (capacity: about 150 strips). If the automatic strip-counter reaches 150 you
will get a warning message which asks you to empty the waste-bin. To remove the waste-
bin just push and release its front panel. It will be automatically ejected. Pull it out totally,
empty it and insert it back. Slip it gently till it is bumping (see section 5.1.).
On the top side of the CombiScan
®
500 you can find the built in printer. If you open the
printer cover by lifting it’s front side you will get access to the paper roll cave to load
printer paper. For loading the printer paper refer to section 3 (Installation).
The interface connectors are located on the back panel. The external barcode reader and/
or keyboard can be connected to the keyboard interface connector. The host computer
can be connected to the RS232 serial port.
