About the Service Manual
This manual serves as a technical service and maintenance manual for
the ScanMate 4000 and 5000. Its purpose, linked with the technical
training courses provided by ScanView, aim to give the the service
engineer the in-depth knowledge of the function and construction of
the ScanMate 4000 and 5000 and the skills necessary to perform repair
and maintenance operations.
About the ScanMate 4000 and 5000
The ScanMate 4000 and 5000 are single-pass, ultra high resolution
scanners utilizing three PMT sensors.They can scan images up to 222 x
303 mm in both A4 and B4 formats with a scanning resolution for the
4000 model from 50 to 4000 dpi and the 5000 model from 50 to 5000
dpi, which allows for enlarging originals to as much as 1000%.
The ScanMate 5000 is basically identical to the ScanMate 4000 apart
from the addition of an extra drum, (located behind a hinged flap bel-
ow the main drum) and a drum bar code reader.
ScanMate 5000 is found in two variants; earlier model scanners have a
serial number of 0200-xxx and later versions are 0210-xxx.
The differences between the ScanMate 4000 and the two variations of
the 5000 can be seen in the Part Replacement section of this manual.

General Cautions
1 • GENERAL INFORMATION
Edition 1 •January 1996 Service Manual • ScanMate 4000/5000 1•5
Caution! ☛Turn off power Before connecting or disconnecting SCSI cables.
Before carrying out service or adjustment operations.
☛When starting up, always turn on the SCSI units first (including the scan-
ner) and the computer last.
☛When handling, always lift the ScanMate 4000 and 5000 by their bases.
☛Do not obstruct the ventilation intakes on the rear of the scanners.
☛The drums must be handled with utmost care to avoid scratches. Use only
non-abrasive repro wipes and graphic arts drum cleaner to clean the
drums.
☛The ScanMate 4000 and 5000 are class 1 electrical equipment and must
be connected to a single phase mains outlet with a protective ground
(earth). Never connect the scanners to the mains without a protective
ground.
☛Always test White calibration (section 5•5), Focus calibration section 5•4),
Register error (section 5•12) and Stripes in shadow (section 5•13) after
every part replacement and service operation.

Dip Switch Definitions
The dip switches, located on the back panel of the Scanners, sets the SCSI
ID number, activates the focus motor, allows software black and white
point calibration of the PMT, sends a test picture and enters the service
mode.The addresses are defined as follow:
# On Off
1 SCSI ID bit 1
2 SCSI ID bit 2
3 SCSI ID bit 3
4 Fixed focus Standard focus
5 No black point Standard black point
6 No white point Standard white point
7 Test picture Standard scan mode
8 Service mode Standard scan mode

Drum Speeds and Aperture Settings - Scanmate 4000
Four drum rotation speeds, six aperture settings and automatic focus
with software override are available.
The drum speeds change with resolution and the scanner will automat-
ically select an aperture. Higher resolutions demand slower rotational
speeds and smaller apertures.
Speed of rotation and aperture selection is adjusted automatically, (the
aperture can be overridden by the system software to smooth large
fields).The focus is adjusted automatically but can be overridden to
produce smoothing of rasterised originals.
Manual adjustment is achieved as follows:
• open photoshop plug-in.
• click on the options button.
• choose an aperture range from 1 to 6.
Note: 1 is the smallest value.
• choose a focus value from -500 to +500.
Note: positive (+) is away from the drum.
The following table is a feature and not an adjustment:
Resolution Transmission Reflection Rotation Speed

100 - 299 4 6
300 - 499 4 5

Error Reporting
The aim of the Error Report is to give ScanView A/S a standard error
reporting medium where all the necessary information is given to Scan-
View’s Support Department to enable the assessment of defects to be
made in a rational and effective way.
A master copy of this error report is shown on page 1•13 and should be
used to take all the necessary copies.
Of particular importance, is the allocation of a CRN (Confirmation of
Return Number). This number is obtained by contacting ScanView (Sup-
port departments hot-line, telefaxing or using the BBS) and must be
included on all error reports.
Exchange parts must be returned to ScanView within 3 weeks of the
invoice date.

In addition to the error report, we also ask for a Software Report for
both scanner/Mac and scanner/PC to be completed.This will assist our
support department in isolating software problems and speed up down
time on your equipment. A copy of these reports can be found on pages
1•15 and 1•17 respectively and should be used to take all the necessary
copies.
