When the [CA] key is pressed, the simulation mode is cancelled.
When the interruption key is pressed, the process is interrupted and the 

screen returns to the sub code entering display.

*

After canceling the simulation mode, be sure to turn OFF/ON the 
power and check the operation.

Note: If the machine is terminated by a jam error or paper empty during 

copying in the adjustment by the simulation, recopying is required.

Note: The values in the simulation columns are not default values but 

sample values.

Used to check the operations of the scanner unit and its control circuit. 
Enter the number of times and the magnification ratio, and press [OK] key to operate the scanner unit. The 
speed is variable according to the specified magnification ratio. The number of scanning can be specified by 
entering a value to the right lower section of the LCD.
•Setting range of magnification ratio: 25%-400%

•Setting range of the number of scanning: 0-999 (When 0 is set, it means unlimited. )

Used to display the status (ON/OFF) of the mirror HP sensor on the LCD during scanning. (Highlighted at 
ON)
"EXEC" is displayed to indicate execution is in process. The scan counter is displayed above "EXEC." This 
counter is counted up even in simulation.
 The copy lamp is lighted during scanning.

[CA] key: Exits the simulation mode.
[INTERRUPT] key: Returns to the sub code input window.
[C] key: Input value clear
Numeric keys: Input of the number of scanning

02

Used to monitor the mirror home position sensor and display the ON/OF status of the sensor on the LCD.

[CA] key: Exits the simulation mode.
[INTERRUPT] key: Returns to the sub code input window.

Used to check the operations of the SPF/RSPF unit and its control circuit.
Enter the magnification ratio and press[OK] key or [START] key to drive the SPF/RSPF unit at the speed 
corresponding to the setting.

*

When [INTERRUPT] key is press, the simulation is terminated and the machine returns to the sub code 

input window. 

*

When [CA] key is pressed, the simulation is terminated and the machine exits the simulation mode.

Used to display the sensor status in the SPF/RSPF section. An active sensor is highlighted.

[CA] key: Exits the simulation mode.
[INTERRUPT] key: Returns to the sub code input window.

Only when the SPF/
RSPF is installed.

03

Used to check the operation of the SPF/RSPF motor and its control circuit. When this simulation is 
executed, the initial menu shown below is displayed. Select the magnification ratio to drive the motor.

[CA] key: The SPF/RSPF motor is stopped, and the machine exits the simulation mode. 
[INTERRUPT] key: The SPF/RSPF motor is stopped, and the machine returns to the sub code input window.

Only when the SPF/
RSPF is installed.
