BANKING AUTOMATIONSelling GuideDIDO grafIntroductionThe concept behind the "DIDO" document dispensers manufactured by CTSelectronics stems from the need to decentralize and make as widespread andeconomical as possible the production of documents, bank related or otherwise:check books, forms or loose documents, statements and journals, but also couponor ticket stacks.CTS has developed a wide range of products, upgrading them over time andmeeting disparate requirements arising in different markets, within and outsideEurope.The DIDO graf can be considered the ultimate in the production of documentbooklets, given the convenience of making the sets starting from A4 sheets loadedin a common laser printer, whose graphic capabilities can be exploited to thefullest extent.Thanks to the two versions, Office and Self-Service, the DIDO graf is suitableboth for behind-the-counter use and for integration in ATM terminals.The Self-Service version is fitted with an ejection and removal mechanism: thecompleted passbook or document is delivered to the user, but if it is not picked upwithin a given time lapse, the machine will withhold it and if necessary destroy it.The Office version, designed for use by bank personnel, is enclosed in a verypractical metal cabinet, which can be opened on 4 sides (3 side doors + lid),allowing convenient access to all mechanisms which may require servicing, as wellas to all “feeding” housing.Feeding pertains to printer toner (average duration about 10,000 A4 sheets),the paper to be inserted in the printer or in the additional trays, the pre-cut coversto be stacked in the rear tray, the metal staple cartridge and the roll of coloredadhesive tape used for binding the passbooks, to be placed on the left side of themachine.CTS electronics srlCorso Vercelli, 332 - 10015 Ivrea (TO) ITALY - Tel. +39.0125.235611 - Fax +39.0125.235623e-mail: sales@ctsgroup.it - URL: www.ctsgroup.it

CTS electronics - Selling Guide DIDO grafMajor FeaturesBasic ConfigurationDIDO graf is available in two versions:- for passbooks with 10-20 documents (version 20A)- for passbooks with 25-50 documents (version 50A)and it is based on two main modules fastened on a standard sized metal frame:a) HP Laserjet 4100 laser printer with magnetic or normal toner – depending onthe type of code line to be printed on the documents – equipped with standard500 sheet trayb) Electromechanical module for the production of passbooks and looseddocuments, equipped with:- MARKER sensor to identify the type of document to be processed- double thickness sensor (double sheeting)- magnetic toner presence sensor (to distinguish it from normal toner)- paper cutting (guillotine) and aligning mechanism- paper punching mechanism- stapling mechanism- binding mechanism- ejection mechanism and passbook collecting container / on Self-Service model- loaded software: MS Windows NT/Windows 2000 driverOptions1Self-Service Model:1. 900-sheet cover tray2. single or double 500-sheet additionaltray*, supplied by HPor3. additional 1300-sheet CTS tray,suitable for larger than A4 sheets, upto 21,6 x 35,6 cm4. single sheet recovery mechanism (forloose documents)5. shredder mechanism for uncollectedcheck-books /only on 20A versionb2-3a45

CTS electronics - Selling Guide DIDO grafFunctional DescriptionThe “heart” of the DIDO graf is the Hewlett-Packard Laserjet 4100 high speed(over 20 pages/minute), high resolution laser printer.Thanks to the capability of using a magnetic toner, an MICR code line can beprinted on the documents, together with all other graphics or text customizationelements, linked to the issuer and the user of the passbook. In case of OCR codeline or if no code line is required, the printed can be used with standard toner. Adedicated sensor detects the presence of magnetic toner.The HP printer is provided with an integrated 500-sheet tray; a second andthird HP-manufactured tray with 500-sheet capacity or a 1300-sheet CTS tray canbe added, enhancing total capacity to 1000, 1500 or even 1800 sheets.The most common application of the DIDO graf, and the one where it adds themost value, is the production of high quality check books. Each A4 sheet yields3, 4 or 5 checks. The software can elect to draw the sheets from the printer trayor from the add-on tray, thereby allowing to place inserts in the check books,using different preprinted sheets. Via software it is also possible to customize thevarious parts of the check book, printing in different ways the various sections ofthe sheets to be cut and bound.Cutting andpunchingalignement stapling bindingejectionshredderprintingcheck book containerrecupero foglisingoli

CTS electronics - Selling Guide DIDO grafThe cutting mechanism must be field adjusted to allow the production ofchecks of pre-set height and any height adjustments for binding. A punchingmechanism may punch a perforated line on the checks, at a distance variable from12 to 70 mm from the left edge.The cover tray is located on the rear of the electromechanical module, and itcan contain 400 or 900 pre-cut covers, depending on the version. The cut andperforated checks are stacked on the first cover, then the stack is closed by thesecond cover and slightly shaken to align the sheets both horizontally andvertically.At this point the stack is conveyed to the stapler, which uses two staples perpassbook. The cartridge can contain up to 5,000 staples; a sensor provides awarning when the machine is about to run out of staples so personnel can replacethe cartridge.Subsequently the binding mechanism is activated: it cuts a proper length ofadhesive tape, then it folds it and presses it on both sides of the passbook withrubber rollers. The finished passbook is ready to be ejected, and collected by bankpersonnel.If the Self - service model is used, the ejection mechanism (not mounted on theOffice model) can place any uncollected passbook in an underlying container, aftera set time interval. An uncollected individual document is instead placed in acompartment positioned between module and printer (optional “single sheetrecovery mechanism”).The system may also elect to take the uncollected or defective passbook(problems with the toner, with the paper, etc.) and destroy it with an (optional)shredder positioned above the container - only for checkbooks with 10 to 20checks. The container can contain about 10 whole passbooks or 6 shreddedpassbooks.
