NovaJet 800 Series Service Manual

The Main PWA has a humidity sensor and a temperature sensor mounted to the back side. The sensors monitor ambient room temperature and humidity. Prior to print operations the printer should be allowed to acclimate to the environment for at least 15 minutes. The plenum may be preheated using the F6 key (2nd key from the top at right side of control panel) under the Sensor Status Menu.

The Dryer PWA is internal to the right side of the dryer plenum. The green LED (D2) on the Dryer PWA indicates that the triac is functioning properly and that power is applied to the two heating elements.

Dryer Mode: cccccccc

Plenum T. = ## deg. C

MBoard T. = ## deg. C

MBoard H. = ## pct. RH

Available mode readouts include: On, Off, Auto and Disabled.

The optical sensors are designed to inform the Main PWA when there is not a proper amount of slack in the media by sensing the ‘curl’ of the media at the bottom of its loop. This method is used so that all approved forms of media (including transparent backlit media) is able to take advantage of the power feed and take-up system.
