Setting up the CRZ201 Card Reader includes preparing and loading cards, turning on power
at the operator's control panel, and correcting any Attention conditions that exist in the
subsystem. '
Loading Cards
The recommended procedures for loading cards in the card reader are described below.
The procedures vary, depending on whether the input hopper is empty, nearly empty, or
has more than 3 inches of cards.
In an empty hopper:
1. Prepare the cards for loading by inspecting, farming, and joggling them as described
on page 22 .
2. Grasp the handful of joggled cards firmly with the right hand so that they do not
slip and become misaligned.
3. Pull the pusher plate in the input hopper far enough to allow the card deck to be
placed gently in the hopper between the plate and the feed station.
4. Hold the card deck with the right hand and with the left hand, load the first card
of the deck into the feed area so that its leading edge enters the feed throat.
The card must lie flat against the feed fingers. This ensures positive feeding
of the first card when card reading starts. '
5. Slide the pusher plate against the back of the cards.
6. Press the OPERATE/RESET pushbutton so the card reader is ready to feed cards
when the program calls for card reading. The OPERATE light will glow green.
Adding cards--1ess than 3-inch stack in hopper:
1. Inspect, fan, and joggle cards as already described.
2. If the pusher plate in the input h0pper is closer than 3 inches to the feed station,
stop card feeding by pressing the MANUAL HALT pushbutton.
3. Firmly grasp a handful of joggled cards with the right hand and set them behind
the pusher plate with the back of the hand just touching the pusher plate.
