2 Setup and Overview

Apply Window Protector Sheet (Optional)

The bottom viewing window is made of a strong, scratch-resistant plastic. It may get scratched

when carrying the scanner around. You can protect it with either a carrying case or by applying

an optional window protector sheet.

The window protector sheet provides additional protection against scratches to the bottom

viewing window. Do not apply it to the scanner bed. To apply it, follow these steps:

1. Clean the bottom viewing window of any dirt

or fingerprints if needed.

2. Peel corner of the protector sheet away from

the backing. Align sheet along one side of the

bottom window, matching the corners.

Carefully hold the protector sheet at the

corners when applying to eliminate any oils or

fingerprints that may remain on the protector.

3. Lay the sheet down while sliding a credit card

across the window protector to apply. To

reposition, gently lift up and reapply. Any

“bubbles” remaining after you smooth out the sheet will not affect scan quality.

4. Replace window protector as needed. Replacement sheets can be ordered from www.flip-

pal.com.

Activate the Batteries

The scanner is shipped ready to use with four AA batteries. To activate them, remove the

battery-protect tab by pulling the plastic tab protruding through the small gap in the battery door,

located on the bottom of the scanner. It is not necessary to open the battery door to pull the tab

out.

Power On and Off

When you are done using your scanner, move the power switch toward the back of the scanner

to power it down. The scanner will also power down automatically, based on the Power-Saver

Timer setting (default is 2 minutes). On newer models, it will power down after 5-10 seconds if

the SD memory card is removed.

Press gently on battery door

while pulling tab sideways to

remove

Slide the spring-loaded

power switch toward rear,

hold until the display lights

battery power. Pressing any button will return the screen to full brightness.

screen you will see.

field. Use LEFT ARROW and RIGHT ARROW to scroll to each of the

fields in turn, starting with Month and ending with AM/PM.

When you are satisfied with all settings, move the highlight to Done and

press OK to save the settings and go to the Home Screen. If you want to skip this step, you

can just press the green scan button; the scanner will use either the default date and time, or

the latest one set.

Customizing the Home Screen

in the top level of the SD memory card. Visit www.flip-pal.com for more information.

3 Scanning and Reviewing

Standard Scanning

You can scan originals up to 4x6 inches.

The scan is stored on the SD memory card and the scanner will be in Review mode. Scanning

is complete when the entire image is displayed.

To help ensure that the scan is straight, align the original with the photo guide on the lid as

shown.

Flip and Scan

Flip scanning allows you to scan a photo in an album or frame, scan large originals for stitching

together later on your computer, or scan small objects such as coins. To flip and scan:

When the scan bar stops its forward motion, the scan is done and you can move the scanner.

1. Open the lid

2. Place original face down on scanner

bed; align with photo guide

3. Close the lid

4. Press green Scan button

5. Scan is done when image is shown

on display

1. Remove lid: Pull up

on small tabs at ends

of the Photo Guide

2. Flip scanner over onto original

3. Align by looking through the

viewing window

4. Press green Scan button

Scanning Large Originals

For originals larger than 4x6 inches, you can take multiple scans of the original, then stitch them

together later on your computer using Flip-Pal®EasyStitch software. (see How to Stitch Large

Originals in Chapter 4.)

Remove the lid and flip the scanner over. Make multiple scans, allowing at least 1 inch or

more overlap between adjacent scans. The overlaps need not be aligned or spaced precisely;

the stitching software compensates for that. It is OK to scan past the edge of the photo. Be sure

to keep the scanner still during each scan.

You can use the lines etched in the bottom window to

align the overlaps.

If you are scanning something like a framed photo it is

acceptable to rotate the scanner along one edge to capture the entire image. The EasyStitch

software will rotate individual scans as needed to ensure proper stitching of the final image.

Example:

These scans can then be stitched together to form one image.
