INSTALLATION AND OPERATION MANUAL
PART 1: INSTALLATION PROCEDURES
INSTALLING THE CLEANCODE EV II PRINTING SYSTEM
Caution should be taken while installing the CLEANCODE EV printing system on to
your equipment. Open Date Equipment Ltd. has taken every precaution to ensure a
safe and accurate instruction set to guide the installer through the installation
process.
Follow the operational guidelines in the installation procedures.
VERIFY THAT YOUR EQUIPMENT IS IN PROPER OPERATING
CONDITION.
LOCATE A CONVENIENT POSITION ON YOUR EQUIPMENT.
CLEANCODE EV II REQUIRES 115mm OF SPACE ON THE
PRODUCTION LINE.
FOLLOW THE INSTALLATION PROCEDURES.
CAREFULLY READ ALL INSTALLATION PROCEDURES BEFORE
PROCEEDING.
INSTALL THE PRINTING SYSTEM ONTO YOUR EQUIPMENT.
THERE IS NO EXTRA HARDWARE REQUIRED OTHER THAN THAT
SUPPLIED IN THE INSTALLATION KIT.
MOUNTING ON PRODUCTION LINE
Locate the supplied mounting template and
affix in a convenient location on the
production line. Spot and drill both mounting
holes for an M8 screw. NOTE: the user may
also thread the side of the conveyer using
an M8 tap.
Fasten the mounting bracket to the conveyer
using the supplied mounting hardware and
ensuring that the supplied ground strap is
located securely beneath either of the two mounting bolts, and that conductivity to
earth ground is less than 1 ohm. This ensures a proper path for static discharge,
should the need arise.

CLEANCODE EV II SYSTEM MANUAL Issue 1.1 15/07/08

GROUNDING STRAP INSTALLATION
INPUT POWER CONNECTION AND MODIFICATION
Insert the power plug to the available power source. The supplied power supply will
is universal and will auto detect 100/240 VAC 50-60hZ.
No other adjustments are necessary.
INSTALL STRAP
UNDER M8 SCREW.
ENSURE
CONDUCTIVITY TO
EARTH GROUND IS
LESS THAN 1 OHM

CLEANCODE EV II SYSTEM MANUAL Issue 1.1 15/07/08

INSTALLING THE PRINT CARTRIDGE
Remove the protective film from the face of the print head and retain the film. This
protective film may be re-applied to store partially used cartridges. If it is necessary
to remove the print head and store for a long period of time, it is best to re-apply the
plastic film, and place the cartridge in a closable plastic bag. Rotate the Print Head
Release mechanism to the rear of the print head so that it is free for insertion of the
print cartridge. Push the print cartridge in and down to insert it into the print carriage.
Gently lift the locking arm and press forward against the print cartridge. A snap will
be felt as the locking mechanism presses the cartridge into the correct position.
NOTE: EACH PRINT CARTRIDGE HAS BEEN PROFILED AT
THE FACTORY. THIS PROCEDURE DETERMINES THE
OPTIMAL OPERATING CHARACTERISTECS FOR EACH
INDIVIDUAL CARTRIDGE. USING ANY OTHER PRINT
CARTRIDGE WILL HAVE UNDESIRABLE RESULTS.
NOTE: WHEN A NEW CARTRIDGE IS INSTALLED,
BOTH THE RED AND GREEN LIGHT WILL FLASH
TWICE INDICATING A CORRECT INSTALLATION.
THE USER MUST REMEMBER TO RESET THE INK
LEVEL UNDER THE F4 FUNCTION KEY MENU.

CLEANCODE EV II SYSTEM MANUAL Issue 1.1 15/07/08

CONNECTING THE CONTROLLER TO THE CARRIAGE
Connect the Controller to the print carriage using the supplied 900mm interconnect
cable supplied with the Printing System. The cable is a standard RJ50 (10
conductor). Longer cables are available as required.
Connect either end of the cable to the Carriage Assembly and securely lock in place.
NOTE: THE CONNECTOR MUST BE PLUGGED INTO THE INPUT RJ50
CONNECTOR LOCATED ADJACENT TO THE LED’S AND MARKED WITH AN
ARROW POINTING TO THE CONNECTOR. A click will be heard when the
connector is in the appropriate position. Connect the free end to the Controller
Assembly and ensure connector is securely seated.
CAUTION:
NOTE ORIENTATION OF THE CONNECTORS. DO NOT FORCE CONNECTORS
INTO POSITION. SECURELY LATCH (CLICK) INTO POSITION.
CONTROLLER MUST PLUG INTO THE PRINT CARRIAGE RJ50 INPUT
CONNECTOR FOR PROPER OPERATION. THE PRINT CARRIAGE RJ50
OUTPUT CONNECTOR IS USED EITHER FOR CONNECTION TO THE NEXT
PRINTER ON A NETWORK OR FOR EXTERNAL PRODUCT OR EXTERNAL
ENCODER INPUT.
THE POWER INPUT CONNECTOR MUST BE SECURELY INSERTED INTO THE
PRINT CARRIAGE. UPON PROPER INSERTION BOTH THE RED AND GREEN
LED’S WILL FLASH INDICATING PROPER CONNECTION.

MULTIPLE PRINT HEADS
CLEANCODE EV II printing systems have the ability to reside on a network. The
network may contain from 1 to 32 print carriages connected via RJ50 cables. These
cables are available in varying lengths depending on the application.
Each mounting bracket can support up to 4 print carriages and would typically
interconnect with a 150mm RJ50 data cable.
NOTE: Please address each unit individually as per page 32 prior to daisy chaining
the printers. Special care must be taken to connect the output of the first print
carriage to the input of the next print carriage.
When connecting multiple print carriages place no more than 2 stations on a side of
the mounting bracket as shown.
