1 Welcome to the Model 5200/5400
The Model 5200 and 5400 are part of the 5000 Series of case
coders, which use MARKEM Touch Dry® ink technology, and
provide flexibility and quality in coding cases directly on your
packaging line.
Depending on the ink delivery module of your coder, ink blocks or
ink bottles are used.
The Model 5200 can be configured with up to two printheads and
the Model 5400 can be configured with up to four printheads.
Images are designed and prepared for printing from a computer
using MARKEM Composer™ or CoLOS™ Create image design
software, which allow for input of variable data and multiple
languages. Composer or CoLOS Create job files are downloaded to
the coder for printing images on your product or package. The coder
can be connected to a dedicated computer or networked with a host
computer for connection to multiple Markem-Imaje coders.
Operation is controlled through a user interface module, which is
mounted to the top of the enclosure. Some operations may also be
controlled through networking.
1.1 What’s in this Guide?
• Coder Description and Specifications
• Safety Information
• Basic Operation
• Care and Cleaning
• Reliability Centered Maintenance
• Diagnostic Tools
• Troubleshooting
• Field Replaceable Parts
Note that the Model 5200 and 5400 coders are almost identical
electrically, mechanically, and in terms of software. The major
difference between the two models is the maximum number of
printheads that can be configured, and design changes necessary
to accommodate the printheads.
Most procedures and pictures in this guide depict the Model 5200.
Adapt the instructions as needed for the Model 5400.

4.2 Automatic Startup
CAUTION
Do not allow an automatic packaging machine startup after a Model
5200/5400 reset.
Install the Model 5200/5400 Fault Relay output for a manual
packaging machine reset. Automatic startup of a packaging
machine could kill or seriously maim an operator.
TECHNICAL ISSUE: The Model 5200/5400 has an optional feature
which enables it to stop or prevent packaging machine operation
when coder conditions prevent marking the packages. These
conditions include, but are not limited to, FAULTS, WARMUP
PERIODS, and PRINT DISABLED STATUS. Some of these coder
conditions are cleared manually by the operator, and some are
cleared automatically. In either case, if the Model 5200/5400 has
NOT been properly connected, the packaging machine can begin
cycling when the condition is cleared. Failure to observe this may
result in personal injury.
ACTION: There are various ways for an installer to use the Model
5200/5400 Fault Relay to control a packaging machine. Only
someone familiar with the packaging machine can determine the
best way to signal it with an external device like the Model 5200/
5400. If in doubt, consult the manufacturer of the packaging
machine.
THE MODEL 5200/5400 INSTALLER IS RESPONSIBLE FOR
CONFIGURING THE SOFTWARE AND INSTALLING THE FAULT
RELAY OUTPUT IN A WAY THAT REQUIRES THE OPERATOR
TO MANUALLY RESTART THE PACKAGING MACHINE AFTER A
MODEL 5200/5400 CONDITION HAS BEEN CLEARED. Any
deviation from this method is unsafe and is not approved by
Markem-Imaje or applicable regulatory agencies.
Ratings Each set of dry contacts in the two status relays is
rated for a maximum of 30 VDC at 1 Amp.
