Using the SF-200 (S) This chapter describes how to load the SF-200 (S), how to remove slides, and how to deal with jams. 4. 1 Loading the feeder Slides to be scanned are inserted in the feed magazine. To load the magazine, open the magazine cover, pull back the feed push-plate to the end of its grove, and hook it in the notch so that it does not spring back to its original position. Place the slides in the magazine with the long end of the aperture up and the emulsion surface facing the push plate (the images in the slides should be reversed when viewed from the magazine side). Scanning will be considerably simplified if the slides are all inserted in the same orientation. Magazine cover Push plate Ejection magazine Notch Load mark Slides can be loaded into the feed magazine up to the load mark. Do not attempt to fill the magazine past this point. Once the feed magazine is loaded, release the push plate from the notch and slide it back until rests against the slides. Close the magazine cover. For details on automatic consecutive scanning of multiple slides, refer to the software reference manual. 24 Cautions · Slides must be from 1. 0 mm to 3. 2 mm thick.
