7 ALIGNMENT Device is provided with a CIS sensor for the use of alignment black mark in order to handle: roll of tickets with pre-printed ields and a ixed length; • fan-fold module of tickets with pre-printed ields and a ixed length. • The alignment black mark may be formed by (see paragraph 9.6): black mark printed on paper; • hole between two tickets; • A CIS (Contact Image Sensor) sensor consists of a linear array of RGB LEDs (red, green and blue) that turn on and off in rapid sequence illuminating the original image to be scanned and of a row of CIS sensors for record the changes in relect- ing brightness, without using mirrors and lenses.
7.1 Alignment parameters The “alignment point” is deined as the position inside the ticket to use for the notch/b.mark alignment. The distance between the notch/b.mark edge and the alignment point is deined as “Cut Distance”. The value of “Cut Distance” varies from a minimum value of -99.8 mm to a maximum value of 99.8 mm. If the “Cut Distance” value is set to 0, the alignment point is set at the beginning of the notch/b.mark: Alignment Alignment Alignment...
