Using the Long Roll Accessory

Appendix D-2: Determining and Setting the Trigger Points

IMPORTANT: Do this procedure only if you will be scanning film that has a significantly higher or lower D-min from negative film, such as black-and-white film or color positive film.

1.With the PC powered off, power on the scanner.

2.Wait for the series of 3 beeps to sound at the scanner (or for the lamp to illuminate).

3.Power on the PC.

Recording the Highest Numbers on the LEDs

IMPORTANT: There must not be film in the scanner.

3.Look at the red LED number on the left side. Note this number as being the “highest” number on the left side.

4.Record the left and right highest numbers for later calculating the trigger numbers.

Because the readers are separate, the left and right numbers will not be the same.

The trigger number tells the scanner when it senses a change in light level. You need to set the trigger number only once unless you will be using the scanner for multiple types of film, such as for both negative and positive.
