Chapter 1 Scanner Overview This chapter presents an overview of the OpScan iNSIGHT 70 scanner and provides information on how to receive technical support for hardware and software problems. Overview of the Scanner The OpScan iNSIGHT 70 is a device that captures the image of a form and sends that image to a host computer for analysis. Figure 1-1 illustrates the parts of the scanner.
Scanner Overview Overview of the Scanner 1-2 • The input hopper holds the forms that are ready to be scanned. When the scanner is made READY, the input hopper raises; when the scanner stops, the hopper lowers, allowing you to load more documents. The input hopper accepts stacks of up to 750 forms, depending on the thickness and condition of the sheets. • The input hopper height adjustment switch allows you to adjust the height of the input hopper so that the scanner can pick a sheet.
Scanner Overview Typical Standalone Configuration Typical Standalone Configuration Figure 1-2 illustrates the components of a typical standalone OpScan iNSIGHT 70 scanner configuration. The form’s image is sent from the OpScan iNSIGHT 70 scanner to the computer for processing.

Chapter 2 Scanner Installation Overview This chapter describes how to set up and install the standalone OpScan iNSIGHT 70 scanner, the computer, the monitor, and the mouse.
Scanner Installation Preparation Software The following software components are required: • Microsoft® Windows XP® operating system software Documentation: The appropriate Windows operating system user’s guide • Scanner application software Documentation: ScanTools® Plus User's Guide • Scanner Exerciser diagnostic software (or equivalent) Documentation: Operator's Guide for the OpScan iNSIGHT™ 70 Scanner and Maintenance Manual for the OpScan iNSIGHT™ 70 Scanner Installation Sequence The installation
Scanner Installation Checking the Installation Site Checking the Installation Site Before you begin installing the OpScan iNSIGHT 70 scanner, verify the following site conditions: • • Check the physical dimensions of the selected site to ensure adequate space. – The OpScan iNSIGHT 70 scanner is 57.5 inches high, 48 inches wide, and 29 inches deep. – If the scanner is near a wall, be sure to leave approximately 24 inches of space between the scanner and the wall.
Scanner Installation Installing the Scanner Installing the Scanner The OpScan iNSIGHT 70 scanner is delivered to the customer shrink-wrapped and up-right on its own four casters. Roll the scanner to its permanent location. Unpacking the Scanner To unpack the scanner, do the following: 1. Remove the clear vinyl dust cover. Caution: Do NOT throw the clear vinyl dust cover away. It can be used to protect the scanner during periods of non-use or when moving it to another location. 2.
Scanner Installation Installing the Scanner Checking the Voltage Before you plug the OpScan iNSIGHT 70 scanner into the designated wall outlet, the following power and grounding requirements must be met and maintained to ensure optimum performance of the scanner and its peripherals. To verify that the power and grounding requirements have been met, refer to the following topics: Power Noise, Grounding, and Site Power Wiring Recommendations.
Scanner Installation Installing the Scanner Dedicated Ground A dedicated isolated/insulated ground for the OpScan iNSIGHT 70 system must be provided. If possible, route a dedicated ground conductor between the main power panel and the OpScan iNSIGHT 70 system branch circuit (with the dedicated feeder). If a dedicated ground conductor is not feasible, then another code-approved method must be used. (The isolated ground conductor is noted in the National Electrical Code, Section 250-74, Exception 4.
Scanner Installation Installing the Scanner With circuit power on and all OpScan iNSIGHT 70 system components unplugged, the voltage between the circuit neutral conductor and the isolated ground conductor must be less than 0.6 VAC. Site Power Wiring Recommendations Table 2-2 describes the conditions for power wiring at a scanner site.
Scanner Installation Installing the Scanner Electrical Requirements The steady-state line-to-neutral voltage should be maintained within -10% to +5% of the normal rated voltage. The short term and long term frequency variations must be maintained at less than ±5% of the specified power line frequency as measured at the input power side of the scanner when it is powered on. Table 2-3 lists the electrical requirements for the power operation of the OpScan iNSIGHT 70 scanner.
Scanner Installation Installing the Scanner Logic Voltage Check-out Procedure The outputs of the power supplies are read at their most critical point-the input to the Camera Controller Board, the Solenoid Clutch Activation Board, and the Top LED Mother Board. 1. Turn on the scanner power switch. 2. Use a DVM to measure the outputs to the voltages listed in Table 2-4. Be sure to connect your ground probe to TPG1, TPG2, TPG3, or TPG4 on the Camera Controller Board.

Chapter 3 Installation of Host Computer and Peripherals Overview This chapter provides information on setting up and installing the computer and other peripheral components in a OpScan iNSIGHT 70 scanner standalone or network configuration. Installation information on optional equipment, such as a system printer and/or Bar Code Reader, is also provided. Begin by unpacking the computer, the monitor, and the keyboard. Unpack other equipment as required.
Installation of Host Computer and Peripherals Standalone Installation Standalone Installation The OpScan iNSIGHT 70 scanner in a standalone configuration requires a computer, a monitor, a keyboard, a mouse, and a table (for the monitor, keyboard, and mouse). An optional printer may also be installed. Figure 3-1 Standalone Configuration Host Computer This section discusses installation and internal cabling for the host computer in a standalone configuration. Installation Do the following. 1.
Installation of Host Computer and Peripherals Standalone Installation Cabling In preparation for cabling, Pearson NCS recommends that you do the following: • Set the computer on the back lip of the shelf during cable installation so that the back of the computer is tilted up. This provides easier access to the computer's ports. • Uncoil all cords and cables, separate them, and lay them out on the floor. The following cabling instructions are for a standalone configuration.
Installation of Host Computer and Peripherals Standalone Installation 7. Complete installation of one 9-pin D cable from the Scanner Controller main board to the Com1 port on the back of the computer. • One end of this cable is already attached to the scanner's Scanner Controller main board at J9. • Connect the other end to the Com1 port on the back of the computer.
