BASIC OPERATION
– Sort mode (from the turn gate section to the bins) –
[F]
[E]
[D]
[H]
[I]
[G]
In this mode, the turn gate solenoid stays off to keep the turn gate [A] at the
upper position. The main motor turns clockwise to rotate the sorter transport
rollers [B] and the exit motor rotates the exit rollers [C].
The turn gate directs copies to the sorter bins through the sorter transport
section, then the first copy is delivered between the top bin [D] and the upper
guide plate [E]. The jogger plate [F] then jogs to square the copies each time.
Before the next copy reaches the sorter exit roller, the bin drive motor [G]
rotates and advances the bin one step (the helical wheels [H] rotate once).
When the cut out in the actuator reaches below the wheel sensor [I], the bin
drive motor turns off.
Bins advance each time copies are delivered.
