When scanning Color Negative or B&W negative filmstrips, be sure the strip has less than
one half of the frame completely exposed (i.e. film is totally black).
The DMin
measurement will fail if the scanner "sees" a full frame of black film. Trim the film strip so
that when it is inserted into the scanner, the first frame has some transparent leader.
Similarly, a problem might exist if you exit the Host Software when the last frame of your
filmstrip is near the exit port of the scanner. If you start the Host Software, the scanner will
sense a filmstrip in the scanner and perform the DMin measurement. In this case, there
will not be a full frame of film below the scanning head and the film scanner will incorrectly
measure the light source. If this happens, eject the filmstrip and reload it. A new minimum
density measurement will be performed.

Light Cal

This feature existed on previous RFS 3600 Host Software, but its button has been moved
to this new location. If this button is enabled, the film scanner will perform a light source
calibration before each final scan. If this button is disabled, the film scanner will skip
making this calibration. The exception is if the film scanner had been in its low power
mode where its lamp was turned off to save energy. In this situation, a light source
calibration will be performed automatically once the lamp has warmed up and the
"Preparing film scanner" message window is displayed.
The setting of the Light Cal button, enabled or disabled, is saved from scan session to
scan session. The default setting is "Enabled".

Window Resize

You may now "grab" the lower right corner of the main screen, drag it and make the
software screen larger or smaller. The minimum screen size limit is 800 x 600 pixels.

Configuration Icon

Clicking the new Configuration icon
brings up the screen seen in
Figure
4. The
setting of all options on the Configuration screen are saved from scan session to scan
session.
