Ribbon Low Sensor
Description
As an option, the EasyCoder 501 XP and 601 XP printers can be
fitted with a sensor, that detect the rotation of the ribbon unwind
spool and updates a counter. By means of custom-made application
program, the counter can be read and used to detect ribbon-low
conditions (as opposed to out-of-ribbon conditions, which are
supported by the standard error handling).
On the ribbon unwind spool, there is a code disc with 41 gaps. When
the spool rotates, the photoelectric sensor detects when the light is
interrupted and decrements a counter. The counter is set at power-
up to a random value of approximately 65,000 and can be read using
SYSVAR (13), see Intermec Fingerprint Reference Manual.
The sensor requires no regular cleaning. However, should any
malfunction be detected, blow the sensor clear from dust or paper
residue before deciding to replace it.
The sensitivity of this sensor cannot be adjusted.

Ribbon Low Sensor
• Open the right-hand door.
• Turn off the power and remove the left-hand cover.
• From the paper compartment side, insert the connector and cable
through the square hole in the centre-line wall.
• Insert the sensor under the code disk of the ribbon unwind unit
so the disc will run in the U-shaped slot between the receiver and
transmitter. There is no need to dismount the ribbon unwind unit.
• Attach the sensor to the centre-line wall by means of one #T10
Torx screw. Check that the code disc can rotate freely.
• Connect the cable to P57 on the CPU board.
• Put back the left-hand cover.
• Turn on the power and check that the sensor works by reading
its values using the Intermec Fingerprint instruction PRINT
SYSVAR(13) while manually rotating the ribbon unwind spool.
