Page 10 GENERAL INFORMATION The Honeywell Series 400/600/6000 Information Processing Systems are designedto give the user versatility of operation in card subsystem equipment. Card reading equipment reads information punched into tahilating cards in alphanumeric or binary modes and feeds it into the core store of the central processor for processing or storage.

Page 20 Attention The subsystem sends the Attention major status to indicate that an inoperable condition exists that requires operator correction. The subsystem rejects subsequent instructions, with one exception, with this return until the condition is corrected and the logic is manually reset.

Intermediate (CPZIOO only) The Intermediatemajor status indicatesthat the punch,although notcurrentlyengaged i n datatransferor in actualpunching, is not at theend of thecard. It hasfinished punching a row (other than the 9-row) withoutencountering analert condition and is awaiting the instruction to punchthe next row of data.

Page 30 OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS Operating the punched card subsystems involves setting up the subsystem, loading and unloading cards, correcting alert conditions. General procedures are described below. *ecific procedures for the individual subsystems are given later in this chapter. CARE PUNCH CARDS Punch cards are precision media.

Page 32 Place cards on the joggling plate on top of the card reader, and with the top edges up and leading edges to the right, gently tap them toward the left rail of the joggling plate, using an in-up motion. Donot joggle the cards more than necessary, as the edges need not be aligned perfectly.

HINGED COVER NORMAL OUTPUT STACKER FEED FINGERS KNIFE STOP OPERATOR'S INPUT HOPPER CONTROL PANEL Figure CRZ201 Card Handling Mechanism The input hopper and output stacker have pusher plates that hold the cards upright.
Page 37 The card reader has three quick-opening jam releasemechanismsthat aid the operator in clearing card jams. To clear jams in the card track, the operator merely unscrewsa large knurled knob and swings the breakawaytrack jam releasemechanism awayfrom the card path. Jammed cards can then be easily removed with bare fingers. (See Figure 5.) R: 2ease Knobs...
Page 38 Cards can be added without interrupting card reading, provided the input hopper contains at least a 3-inch stack of cards. Cards can be removed from the stackers during stacking, provided at least 5 inches of cards are left in the stacker. A joggling plate is provided on top of the reader cabinet for use in manually aligning card decks.
Page 39 Use the left hand to swing the pivoted pusher plate up to clear the card deck; slide the added cards against those already in the hopper, making sure the cards in the hopper do not fall over. Slide the pusher plate away from the feed station, lower it, and slide it against the back of the deck.

Page 41 Unloading Cards When large card decks are being read, it maybe necessaryto removecards from the stackers during the run. Otherwise, the card reader stopsfeedingcards whenthe stacker is full enoughto activate the stacker full switch(HOPPER ALERTlight glows blue). Procedures vary according to whether the readingoperationis to continue uninterrupted or the entire deck is to be removedat the endof theprogram.
Page 42 Normal Operation During normal on-line operation of the card reader, the operator addscards to the input hopper, removes cards from the stackers, monitors the card reader for alert conditions, corrects operator errors, and shuts downthe subsystem whenoperationsend. Shutdown When card reading is complete and if the card reader will not be used for some time, power can be nrrned off by pressing POWER OFF.

Thecard track movescardsforward,rowby row,in response tofeed signals issued by thepunch controller. A setof 80punch dies,regulated b y thecontrol e lectronics, punches cardsa row at a time.
Page 64 As row 12 of the first card passesover the punch dies, the control electronics extracts the row-12 information from the card image b-lffer and activates the punching mechanism. Thepunchremains in the Hasystate, punchingdatarow by row until the last row of the card (row 9) is completed.
