4.1.2 Alternate bin mode
Enter the ALTERNATE BIN MODE menu.
This program allows you to reload the collator while running
by loading the same sheet in two bins. As soon as any bin is
empty the collator automatically switches to the alternate
bins. With one collator it is possible to load up to 4 sheets per
set (with two collators - 8 sheets and with three collators up
to 12 sheets). Mark the total No. of bins to be used with the
arrow buttons. The marked bins will be shown inverted.
Press the “OK” button to confirm. Follow the procedure in
“3.6 Running a job” to calibrate and start the job.
Note 1: Load sheet one in bin 1 and bin 2, sheet two in bin 3
and bin 4 and so on.
Note 2: After reloading, press the up arrow button to activate
the reloaded bin/s to achieve continuous running.
4.1.3 Block mode
Enter the BLOCK MODE menu.
This program allows you to reload the collator while running
by loading the set twice in two separate blocks. When any of
the bins in one block become empty, the collator automati-
cally switches to the other block. With one collator it is possi-
ble load up to 4 sheets per set (with two collators - 8 sheets
and with three collators up to 12 sheets).
Mark the number of bins to be used (i.e. the No. of sheets in
the set) in the first block with the arrow buttons. The marked
bins will be shown inverted. Press the “OK” button to con-
firm.
When the “OK” button is pressed the collator will suggest the
next bins to be used by showing them inverted. You may
select other bins than the suggested by moving the block
with the arrow buttons. Press the “OK” button to confirm.
Follow the procedure in “3.6 Running a job” to calibrate and
start the job.
Note 1: The example is shows how to run a set of two sheets.
Load sheet one in bin 1 (first block) and bin 3 (second
block). Sheet two should consequently be loaded in
bin 2 and bin 4.
Note 2: After reloading, press the up arrow button to activate
the reloaded bin/s and achieve continuous running.
