The Feeder

Enter the number of sheets that should be fed from

the Model F601 per set using the arrow buttons. The

range is 1 to 45 sheets per set. Default value is 1.

If running on-line with the Model F610, multiple sheets

per set should only be run portrait.

Enter the length of the inserts (in the feed direction)

using the arrow buttons. The range is 100 to 310 mm.

Default value is 200 mm. Use the scale attached to

the unit to measure the length of the booklet.

Enter the number of sets per hour using the arrow

buttons. The range is 1000 to 3600 sets per hour.

Default value is 1800. The speed will however be

limited to match units attached. When running the

machine do not change speed by more than 1000

SPH at a time, it can create interruption.

Belt speed is how fast each insert will be fed. Adjust

to determine the position of the booklet on the Model

F610. Enter a percentage using the arrow buttons.

The range is 60 to 100%. Default value is 80%. If the

belt speed is too slow the inserts might have problems

to “leaving” the Model F601. If the belt speed is too

high, single sheets might turn over when they are fed

and booklets might bounce back.

Module Priority is similar to the ID number and decides

the order of the inserts in the envelope. Lowest number

feeds first and so on. For example, the table on page

5 shows that the Model F601 feeds first and then the

Model F612/F615.

Select language using the arrow buttons.

Starts the self diagnosis when the OK button is

pressed. Memory, sensors, feed belt motor and the

voltage supplied is checked.

See section 6 for error messages, explanations and

actions to be taken.

Operation

Model F601 docking plate

Lift the Model F601 docking plate and position the

Model F601 up to the Model F610. Ensure that the

docking plate locks the Model F601 to the Model F610.

If a Model F612/F615 Collator is present in the system,

it should be positioned in the docking plate on Model

F610. While calibrating the collator, adjust the paper

deflector so that the leading edge of the sheets lands

between the insert feed belts on the Model F610

document table.

To exclude the Model F601 from the system, just select

“Off-line” from the “Mode” option.

To reactivate, select “On-line” from the “Mode” option.

To exclude the Model F612/F615 from the system,

just select “Stacking mode” on the control panel.

To reactivate, select “Third party device mode” on the

control panel.
