VIDAR Film Digitizer Installation Guide
Scanning a single film
Options for scanning single films
There are two ways to scan a single film:
By manually inserting the film behind the blue area (as
described in this section), or
By treating the single film as a batch of one (if the scanning
application supports this approach); for instructions, see
“Scanning multiple films” (next section in this manual).
The digitizer cannot scan films smaller than 5" x 7" (12.7cm x
17.8cm).
1. Hold the film in front of you as you
would view it on a light box.
2. Align the left edge of the film with
the film guide on the left of the
feeder.
3. Place the film into the slot
BEHIND the blue area.
The blue area is defined by a lip
and a groove on the top edge of the
digitizer where the feeder is
attached. Place a single film
directly behind the the blue area.
When the digitizer senses the film,
it automatically stages the film in preparation for digitizing. The film
will first move down, then up. This is normal operation.
CAUTION: If the film is not staged properly, do not manually
pull the film out of the digitizer. Instead, use the scanning
application’s “eject” command to remove the film.
