Reviewing DTC 525 Sequence of Operations

The following sequence describes a DTC525 doing a dual sided full color print job with

magnetic encoding.

Step

Process

1 The File information is received from the PC.

2 The Flipper Stepper activates and rotates the Flipper Table until the Flipper Home

Sensor is activated.

3 The Flipper Stepper rotates the Flipper Table back a specific number of steps

(based on the Flipper Offset setting) to return the Flipper Table to a level position.

4 The Card Detection Sensor detects the presence of a Card in the exception feed.

5 The Hopper Lift Motor activates and lowers the Card Hopper until the Hopper Lift

Sensor detects a change in state.

6 The Card Detection Sensor detects the presence of a Card.

If no card is seen, the following takes place:

a. The Hopper Lift Motor activates and raises the Card Hopper until the Hopper

Lift Sensor detects a change in state.

b. The Hopper Transport Motor activates and moves to the other Hopper until

the Hopper Position Sensor detects a change in state.

c. The Hopper Lift Motor activates and lowers the card Hopper until the Hopper

Lift Sensor is activated.

d. The Card Detection Sensor detects the presence of a Card.

7 The Card Feed Stepper activates and feeds a card through the Cleaning Roller

and onto the Flipper Table.

8 The Flipper Stepper rotates the Flipper Table a certain number of steps (based on

the Encoder Angle setting) to position the card for Encoding.

9 The Encoder/Flipper Feed Motor activates until the Card passes the Encoding

TOF Sensor.

10 The Encoding Feed Motor feeds the Card back to the Flipper Table while the

Magnetic Encoding Head transfers data onto the Magnetic Stripe.

Reviewing DTC 525 Sequence of Operations (continued)

Step

Process

11 Repeat Steps 9 to 10 for each Encoding and Verification pass.

12 The Card is centered on the Flipper Table based on input from the Flipper Table

Card Sensor.

13 The Flipper Stepper rotates the Flipper Table a specific number of steps (based on

the Flipper Offset setting) to the Home the Flipper Table.

14 The Card Feed Motor feeds the Card to the Print TOF Sensor.

15 The Ribbon Drives turn ON and move until the correct panel is found by the Print

Ribbon Sensor Array (5 reflective). All Stop. (Note: The Print Ribbon Encoder is

active during this step.)

16 The Headlift Motor engages and moves the printhead down until the Headlift

Sensor is activated. All Stop.

17 The Fan turns ON (as required) and blows cool air over the Printhead.

(Note: The Printhead Thermistor determinates the Printhead Temperature.)

18 Ribbon Drive and Card feed Motors activate and the printhead burns image data

until the image data is depleted. All Stop. (Note: The Ribbon Encoder is active

during this step.)

19 The Headlift Motor engages, moving the printhead up until the Headlift Sensor is

activated. All Stop.

20 The Card Feed Motor feeds the Card back to the Print TOF Sensor.

21 Repeat steps 14 to 20 for the appropriate Number of Color/Overlay Panels.

22 The Card Feed Motor transports the Card back to the Flipper Table.

23 The Flipper Stepper rotates in order to invert the Card.

24 The Card Feed Motor activates and moves the card to the Print TOF Sensor. All

Stop.

25 The Flipper Stepper rotates to return the Flipper Table to a level position.

26 Repeat Steps 14 to 20 for the appropriate Number of Color/Overlay Panels.

27 The Card Feed Motor activates to feed the Card out of the Printer.
