7. Installing PlateCrane Stacks:


Note: Mishandling of plate stacks can result in misalignment.

 Unpack and unwrap the input/output stacks
 Mount the stacks onto the stack base by gently sliding them down onto the stack

guide blocks.

8. Installing Barcode Scanner:

 If the Barcode Scanner option was purchased, position the scanner stand just

outside the outer edge of the plate magazines, so that a plate's label can be
scanned above the top of the stacks.

 Secure the scanner platform to the scanner stand post, and run its RS-232 cable to

an available COM port on the host computer. Plug its 5-VDC power supply into a
nearby 120 VAC receptacle.

9. Unplugging Power and Communication Cables:


During service or moving the unit will have to have the power and
communication cable removed. To unplug the two cables perform the
following:
 The Rear of the PlateCrane should be facing you (See figure 11)
 Unplug the power cable by holding the power cable as close to the

PlateCrane as possible and pulling gently straight away from the
PlateCrane

 Unplug the communication cable by loosening the two thumbscrews

that secure the cable to the PlateCrane then slowly pull the cable
straight away from the PlateCrane.
