Film Types and Variations • The F-135 is designed to scan 35 MM. color negative film. 35 MM. cut strips are supported in sizes from 3 frames to 40 frames. However, to ensure DX code reading, the strips must be a minimum of 4 frames. DX Code Reading • 35 MM. DX codes are read using the ISO 1007 specifications and are used by the host manager. Pakon Part#125307-B October 10, 2006 2 Installing the F-135 The F-135 is a peripheral device. It must be connected to a computer that meets the required specifications listed on page 1 of this manual. 1. Install the software for the F-135, if it is not already installed on the PC. 2. Clear a space near your computer system to place the F-135 scanner. The USB 2.0 cable must be able to reach the PC, so it cannot be more than 6 feet (2m) from the computer. 3. Connect the power cord to the power supply plug on the back of the scanner. 4. Connect the USB 2.0 cable to the back of the scanner. 5. Connect the USB 2.0 cable to the back of the computer, in a USB 2.0 port. Do not plug in to a USB 1.0 connector! Pakon Part#125307-B October 10, 2006 3 6. While the computer is on and Windows is loaded, turn the scanner power switch into the ‘on’ position. 7. Windows will prompt you to click “Next” to continue the driver installation. 8. Then click on “Finish” to finish the driver installation. 9. The process will repeat twice before finishing. 10. After the driver is finished installing, verify that the scanner driver is properly installed, by viewing the scanner properties in the Device Manager under the heading, “Imaging Devices.” Pakon Part#125307-B October 10, 2006 4 11. Clean the F-135 from any dust that may be inside the scanner. Please refer to these procedures in the “Operator Maintenance” chapter. BIOS Configuration The following BIOS options are used on systems configured by Pakon, and are recommended to be configured as outlined below.

This will ensure that the scanner can properly communicate with the host computer. Operation and Film Insertion When scanning film, do not load film until the film status LED is green. Inserting the film properly will ensure that the DX codes are read and that the framing will be done correctly. Insert the film with the emulsion to the inside of the scanner, DX Code up, and starting with the lowest number first, as shown below: Do not attempt to remove film from the scanner while the scanner motor is moving! This will cause damage to both the film and the scanner. Calibration There are two types of calibration for the F-135. Color calibration is set during the manufacturing process, as well as any service that involves the CCD or any optical filter. This is to be performed by trained and authorized service personnel only. Scanner corrections are performed automatically. They consist of a series of steps performed when the scanner is first turned on, as shown below: • Start-up corrections • Initial LED warm-up • Gain and exposure Control Corrections • Run Time Corrections Pakon Part#125307-B October 10, 2006 6 LED Indicator Lights Power LED Function Solid Green +5V is functioning Off +5V is not functioning Status LED Function Solid Green Scanner Ready Blinking Green Scanner is Scanning Blinking Yellow Scanner is unable to scan at the moment Blinking Red Scanner Error Off Scanner not Functioning Film LED Function Solid Green Film is being scanned Blinking Green Insert film to be scanned Blinking Yellow Remove film from scanner Off No film in the scanner Digital ICE Digital ICE is designed to assist in removing scratches, dust, and debris artifacts from scanned film. It should be used as a complement to a photo lab’s normal cleaning procedures. Customers are still advised to clean the floors and work surfaces regularly to keep the lab environment as dust-free as possible. It is also recommended to clean all film with a lint-free cloth before attempting to make prints 8”x10” or higher. If a lab is having persistent dust problems, it is recommended to perform the following regularly: •Clean all customer film with a lint-free cloth before scanning it. •When the scanner is turned off, cover it with a plastic, or lint-free cover. •Use a lint-free cloth daily to clean the cover of the scanner and the surface of the table it is positioned on. Pakon Part#125307-B October 10, 2006 7 Operator Maintenance Cleaning the Film Track It is recommended to clean the film track every two weeks, along with the illumination cleaning. Keeping the film track clean will ensure that DX code reading remains reliable. It will also maintain the proper motor speed for each resolution. We recommend ensuring the film is clean before putting it into the scanner. 1. Position the tip of the compressed air hose in the film track entrance, and blow, moving the hose up and down while blowing inside. 2. Follow the cleaning instructions for cleaning the scanner cover below. 3. After cleaning the film track, run the ‘Film Track Test’ in the client interface program. Cleaning the Scanner Cover 1. Aim the hose of a can of compressed air into the film path--blowing the air away from the film entrance. Pakon Part#125307-B October 10, 2006 8 2. On the film exit side, blow the air away from the film exit.
