1. INTRODUCTION
This manual shows you how to use the FD 150. It presents
information about the FD 150’s specifications, physical
features and operation.
1.1 FD150
Description
The FD 150 is a document imprinter used for signing,
endorsing and validating cut-sheet documents. Documents
to be imprinted are stacked in the feed tray. Two paper
guides hold the stack in position as the documents are fed
through the FD 150.
The stack is separated into single pieces by separators and
rolls which feed each document into the FD 150. A
photosensor (an electric eye) in the base of the FD 150,
senses the document and transmits this information to the
microprocessor which controls the FD 150. The micro-
processor directs a motor to rotate the saddle holder and
imprint the document at the position set on the imprint
position control. The imprinted documents then exit the FD
150 and stack on the receiving tray.
