1. OVERVIEW *Not provided on the FAX-910.
2. MECHANISMS The facsimile equipment is classified into the following mechanisms: n Transmitting Mechanism Feeding and scanning documents n Receiving Mechanism Feeding paper and printing data n Power Transmission Mechanism Switching the power transmission route n Sensors and Actuators 2.
2.1.2 Scanner The scanner uses a contact image sensor (CIS) unit which consists of an LED array illuminating documents, a self-focus lens array collecting the reflected light, a CIS PCB carrying out photoelectric conversion to output picture element data, and a cover glass on which a document advances. When the document passes between the document pressure bar and the cover glass, it is scanned.
2.2 Receiving Mechanism (Feeding paper and printing data) The receiving mechanism consists of the recording paper cover ASSY, paper feed roller ASSY, platen, thermal recording head, paper ejection roller, and sensors. (For details about the sensors, refer to Section 2.4.) STEP 1: In the paper feeding mode If the equipment receives data, the control electronics activates the solenoid and rotates the motor counterclockwise to drive the paper feed roller (and paper ejection roller).
2.3 Power Transmission Mechanism The equipment has a single drive motor whose power transmission route can be switched by the planetary gear systems and the solenoid. This switching allows the equipment to function in four operation modes (scanning, paper feeding/ejecting, recording, and copying modes). For the details about the planetary gear systems, refer to Subsection 2.3.2. 2.3.1 Structure of the gear train All of the motor and gears are located at the left side of the equipment.
2.3.2 Description of planetary gear system The equipment uses the following three planetary gear systems: - Sun gear 24/90 ("B" in the figure given on the previous page) and its planet gears - Sun gear 65/60 ("K") and its planet gear - Sun gear 24/28 ("O") and its planet gear This section describes the planetary gear system of sun gear 24/90 ("B"). It consists of sun gear 24/90, two planet gears 34, arm A, and arm B as shown below.
2.3.3 Power transmission for four operation modes Depending upon the solenoid ON/OFF state and the motor rotation direction, the planetary gear train switches the power transmission route for the four operation modes.
[1] Scanning mode (Solenoid: OFF, Motor rotation: Reverse) In the scanning mode, the control electronics deactivates the solenoid. When the motor rotates in the reverse direction, the clutch lever turns counterclockwise with the compression spring so that its cutout becomes engaged with the stopper of arm A. Once arm A is locked, planet gear 34A ("J") will not be engaged with any other gear but simply idle.
[2] Paper feeding/ejecting mode (Solenoid: ON, Motor rotation: Reverse) In the paper feeding/ejecting mode, the control electronics activates the solenoid to release the stopper of arm A. When the motor rotates in the reverse direction, sun gear 24/90 ("B") rotates clockwise so that planet gear 34A ("J") transmits the torque via sun gear 65/60 ("K") and other gears to the paper feed roller gear ("T") and paper ejection roller gear ("R").
[3] Recording mode (Solenoid: OFF, Motor rotation: Forward) In the recording mode, the control electronics deactivates the solenoid. When the motor rotates in the forward direction, the clutch lever turns counterclockwise with the compression spring so that its cutout becomes engaged with the stopper of arm A. Once arm A is locked, planet gear 34A ("J") will not be engaged with any other gear but simply idle.
Active Gears on the Inner Side of the Drive Unit III - 11
[4] Copying mode (Solenoid: ON, Motor rotation: Forward) In the copying mode, the control electronics activates the solenoid to release the stopper of arm A from the clutch lever. When the motor rotates in the forward direction, sun gear 24/90 ("B") rotates counterclockwise so that planet gear 34A ("J") transmits the torque to the document scanner mechanism (e.g.

2.3.4 Power transmission route Rotation of the motor gear is transmitted as shown below.

3.3 NCU PCB The NCU PCB switches the communications line to telephone or built-in MODEM, under the control of the main PCB. U.S.A.
European versions NOTE: For models equipped with a power failure phone, the circuit enclosed in a dotted line does not apply and points A and B are short circuited together.
3.4 Control Panel PCB The control panel PCB and the main PCB communicate with each other by serially transmitting commands and data. The control panel unit consists of a gate array, an LCD and LEDs, which are controlled by the gate array according to commands issued from the FAX engine on the main PCB. The calendar clock is backed up by the backup circuit on the main PCB. The panel FPC is a flexible keyboard PCB which integrates the key matrix having rubber keytops.
3.5 Power Supply PCB The power supply uses the switching regulator to generate DC power (+25V, +6.5V, and +5V) from a commercial AC power line. The +25V source is stabilized and fed to the motor and solenoid (for feeding documents, recording paper, and ink ribbon), recording head, the main PCB, and the CIS LED array. The +6.5V source is not stabilized and fed to the Ni-MH battery (on the FAX870MC/FAX-930/FAX931/MFC970MC).

2. TROUBLESHOOTING 2.1 Introduction This section gives the service personnel some of the troubleshooting procedures to be followed if an error or malfunction occurs with the facsimile equipment. It is impossible to anticipate all of the possible problems which may occur in future and determine the troubleshooting procedures, so this section covers some sample problems. However, those samples will help service personnel pinpoint and repair other defective elements if he/she analyzes and examines them well.
2.4 Troubleshooting Procedures [ 1 ] Control panel related Trouble (1) LCD shows nothing. Check: • Panel-main harness between the main PCB and the control PCB • Interfaces between the main PCB, NCU PCB and power supply PCB • LCD • Control panel PCB • Power supply PCB • Main PCB (2) Control panel inoperative.
[ 3 ] Communications related Trouble (1) No tone is transmitted. Check: • Main PCB • NCU PCB [ 4 ] Paper/document feeding related Trouble (1) Neither "COPY: PRESS COPY" nor "FAX: NO. & START" message appears although documents are set. Check: • Sensors by using the maintenance-mode function code 32. (Refer to Chapter V, Section 3.8, "Sensor Operational Check".) • Document front sensor actuator and rear sensor actuator • Main PCB (2) Document not fed.
[ 5 ] Print-image related If the received or sent image has any problem, first make a copy with the facsimile equipment.
