4. BASIC OPERATION
- Clear Mode -
When the main switch of the copier is turned on, the sorter automatically
assumes clear mode. In this mode, all copies are stacked in the first bin.
The sorter also assumes clear mode when interrupt mode is selected.
Sorter operation begins when the copier sends the paper feed signal to the
selected paper feed station. At this time, the roller drive motor energizes.
When the paper exits onto the sorter bin, the paper sensor is de-activated
and the roller drive motor is then de-energized. The copier main board
monitors the paper sensor through the sorter main board to check for paper
misfeeds.
- Sort Mode -
In this mode, all copies of the first original are delivered to separate bins
starting from the top. The copies of the second original are delivered to the
same bins, but starting from the bottom. The copies of the third original start
from the top and so on. At 250 milliseconds after the copy has gone through
the paper sensor, the bin drive motor turns on to advance the bin one step.
- Stack Mode -
In this mode, all copies of the first original are delivered to the first bin, all
copies of the second original are delivered to the second bin, and so on. At
250 milliseconds after the last copy of the original has gone through the
paper sensor, the bin drive motor turns on to advance the bin one step.
