The difference in black level based on CH1 of the DAC setting between
even and odd pixels is not within ± 1.
The black level based on CH2 of the DAC setting is not within 3 ± 1.
The minimum hold value of the auto gain control circuit in the SIP3 is
not over 128.
The value of CH4 for the DAC cannot be adjusted.
Possible Causes:
A mirror is out of position.
Misalignment.
SCU damaged.
SBU damaged.
The lamp is defective.
The shading seal is dirty.
Procedure:
Is there any problem with the lamp?
Yes
No
Is the shading seal dirty?
Yes
Replace the ADF cover.
Replace the lamp.
Note: The read signal goes to the SCU through the MBU, but the MBU
does not do any image processing. Therefore the MBU probably
does not have a problem. However, if the problem is not solved even
after replacing the SCU, try changing the MBU.
