Kodak i100 Series manual Error handling

Error handling

The scanner recognizes and reports a variety of error conditions.

 

Some errors are reported to the host (via the 1394 interface) or via the

 

LEDs on the scanner while others are reported to both the host and

 

the LEDs.

 

An error (via the 1394 interface) is defined as either a current or

 

deferred error.

 

A current error results from a problem in processing the current

 

scanner command. This can include sending an invalid

 

command, trying to read from an empty image buffer, or an

 

end-of-job condition. Since one or more errors may be pending at

 

any time, current errors are reported first.

 

A deferred error results from an error condition within the scanner,

 

such as a document jam. Deferred errors are reported after

 

current errors.

 

NOTE: Low-level 1394 commands and information are handled by

 

the device driver. The following information is provided for

 

reference only.

 

Some error conditions disable scanning and cause the document

 

transport to stop. This is done to prevent additional images from

 

entering the image buffer while allowing the host to perform fault

 

recovery activities.

 

NOTE: The scanner cannot determine exactly which images were

 

affected by the error and which images were not.

 

If an error occurs that disables the scanner, the host can continue

 

to read images from the image buffer without enabling the

 

scanner. However, when the image buffer has been emptied, an

 

error will be generated indicating fault recovery is required. This

 

differentiates between an end-of-job disable and a disable

 

caused by an error. The operator may continue scanning

 

documents after the host enables the scanner.
