Features And Function; Time-Out (Out Of Paper) Feature - Neopost HD-CXENVL-FDR V2 Assembly And Operation Manual

Features and function

The HD-CXENVL-FDR envelope feeder is a top load, bottom feed machine designed to feed a wide
variety of envelope types and sizes into a digital printer. The HD-CXENVL-FDR makes digital printers
more productive by continually feeding envelopes, one at a time, from a stack in the feed hopper, and
delivering each envelope to the printer's manual feed tray pickup roller. The delivery table on the HD-
CXENVL-FDR centers and aligns the envelopes and positions them properly in the manual feed tray by
means of an envelope stop sensor. As each envelope is pulled away by the printer's pickup roller, the
feeder advances another envelope into the printer for the next cycle. With a top-load design, the
operator can continually add envelopes on top of the stack for uninterrupted production.
The HD-CXENVL-FDR consists of two main sections: The feed hopper and the delivery table.
The envelopes are stacked in the feed hopper and are transported, one at a time to the printer via the
delivery table.
The delivery table is equipped with self
centering paper guides and a set of photo
sensors. The photo sensors are used to control
(stop/start) the flow of media. When the
envelope(s) being fed cover both sensors at the
same time, the feeder will stop feeding;
presenting the envelope under the printer's feed
roller for media take-away.
As the printer removes the presented envelope
from the delivery table, the feeder will resume
feeding when either sensor becomes uncovered
during the media take-away process.

Time-out (out of paper) Feature

The time-out feature is automatic with the timer starting as soon as the power to the feeder is turned on. If, after
4 seconds, an envelope does not advance far enough to cover the photo sensors, the feeder will stop running.
IMPORTANT! The time-out feature is not dependent on the speed of the feeder, therefore it is possible, when
running the motor at very slow speeds, the envelope may not advance to cover both sensors before the timer
expires which would stop the feeder. If this is the case, turn the speed control up to at least 50% speed and reset
the timer as described above.
Time-out Reset: To reset the timer and start the feeder running again,
momentarily press the "Reset / Hold to Jog" button on the back plate.
Other time-out reset methods:
- Switching the power off and then back on will also reset the
timer and start the feeder.
- If the machine is moved away from the printer, you can also reset
the timer by momentarily blocking, and then unblocking both
photo sensors on the delivery table with two fingertips or a piece
of media.
Jog Feature: Pressing and holding the "Reset / Hold to Jog" button will make the feeder run continuously and
override the timeout feature. This is helpful for setup and maintenance.
