All safety requirements of the European Standard EN 60950, Safety of Equipment in the Information Technology, are fulfilled by the scanner BOOKEYE Color. Marking of Safety Notes All safety notes are marked with a prefixed warning sign.
As replacement only use original lamps with the prescribed data. Only original lamps fulfil the light specification. Maintenance and Repair There are not any parts of the BOOKEYE Color which can be repaired or maintained by the user. All maintenance and repairs should be done by a trained technician.
3 Device Overview Picture 1: Front side view For a first look at the BOOKEYE Color, some of the more important components have been identified in the photos here. These components are referenced in the operation manual. Picture 2: Details on the back side Note: Picture 1 and Picture 2 show device version R2.
The network cable connects the BOOKEYE Color scanner to the network. All parameters which define the BOOKEYE Color in the network must be set prior to the first use. The power cable connects the BOOKEYE Color to the wall outlet.
The wall outlet is equipped with a correctly dimensioned fuse. Turn the device off before plugging or unplugging any cable. Connect the wall outlet and the power supply connector at the BOOKEYE Color with the power cable. Picture 3: Connectors on backside...
Possible Disturbance at Power Up After connecting the BOOKEYE Color to the mains voltage and turning the main power switch on, the lamps should light up for a short moment. This is a design-related behavior of the lamps electronic ballast.
6 Operation Starting the BOOKEYE Color Press the START button. After the BOOKEYE Color is turned on, the lamps light up and the internal self test sequence starts. While the self test sequence runs, the display shows alternating in two lines:...
After switching off using the main switch, more time is necessary for the subsequent system start since all system parameters have to be restored. If the BOOKEYE Color is installed in a network with a high number of users, it might react with a delay on commands from the user interface.
The selected setting is displayed by LEDs at each function field. The START button and the STOP button control several functions. The function of these buttons is defined by the mode of operation of the BOOKEYE Color. The BOOKEYE Color has two modes of operation.
Table 1: Size of the scanned area The “AUTO” setting activates the automatic size detection. By using the “AUTO” setting, the BOOKEYE Color scans the complete, maximum scan area. The size of the document which is placed on the document bed is recognized automatically and displayed in the correct size.
TYPE Picture 8: Function field TYPE The function field TYPE defines the document type. At the end of the system-test the field lights up. Function Document type FLAT Documents with consistent thickness, e.g. single pages. Documents without binding or center fold. BOOK Documents with a high center fold, e.g.

7.2.3 FOLDER The type FOLDER is suitable for documents with plain differences in levels between left and right page. These are e.g. extensive files or documents without bound or center fold. Picture 12: Example for document used with FOLDER In combination with the setting PAGES BOTH, the left and right half of the document are focused and sent separately.
PAGES Picture 13: Function field PAGES The function field PAGES defines the output mode. At the end of the system-test the field lights up. The settings LEFT, RIGHT and BOTH activate the page separation. Function Output mode SINGLE No page separation. Selected document size as one image. LEFT Page separation activated.

COLOR Picture 14: Function field COLOR The function field COLOR defines the color mode. At the end of the system-test the field lights up. Function Output mode COLOR Scans the document in 24-bit color mode. GRAY Scans the document in 8-bit gray scale mode. PHOTO Scans the document in bi-tonal (black/white) mode combined with a dithering effect.
CONTRAST Picture 16: Function field CONTRAST The function field CONTRAST sets the contrast value while scanning. At the end of the system-test the field lights up. Moving the LED bar upwards increases the contrast value. Moving the LED bar downwards decreases the contrast value. COPIES Picture 17: Function field COPIES This function field is only active in the copier version of the device.
After the self-test is completed, the LEDs light up in the same position which was active when the device was switched off. The display now shows the serial number of the BOOKEYE Color in two lines. Checking the current settings To check the current settings of the IP address, the subnet mask, the gateway address and DHCP value, perform the following steps.
Setting new values To set new values for the displayed parameters, use the following buttons: — Use the up / down buttons at the function field TYPE to change the value for AAA as well as to switch the setting for DHCP between YES and NO. —...
