5.1.15 (F) RESOLUTION CONTROL
The option is used to set scanning resolutions and their corresponding display strings.
Resolutions are selected by a letter index A-H. The number of resolutions that appears is
governed by the number set in the Global Parameters.
When you press <F> to select “Resolution Control”, the display on the screen will be similar to
figure 5-31.

The Resolution Index (A-H) is a common index used to relate a set of parameters: resolution
control, motor speed, and the splice count, together.
“Pixels/inch” is the number of pixels the scanner can resolve per inch.
“Display string” is the name you assign to each Resolution Index and it is display on the
keypad display window as well as on the Main Menu of the local control terminal.
“Divisor” is the ratio of maximum resolution to scanning resolution. For example, a CF1000
scanner has a maximum resolution of 1000 pixels/inch. If scanning resolution is 500 pixels/per
inch, the divisor is (1000.0)/(500.0) = 2.000. Calculate the required divisor values in this way
before setting new resolutions.
If you press<X> for “Exit”, you will be returned to the Diagnostic Test menu.
If you press <S>, the prompt “Resolution” appears, enter a letter for the resolution you wish to
set.
