The PS System can be configured with an optional tape feeder for
input media. The tape feeder is installed on the front of the
PS Machine.
To install a Tape Feeder for input:

Application.
1b. Remove the two screws holding the small safety shield that cov-
ers the tape input feeder slot at the front of the PS Machine.

On the Gantry Window,
the Tube Feeders are rep-
resented by the yellow
position labels that reads
Vib1 and Vib2.
Tape input feeders are
available in sizes to
match common device
tape widths. The last two
digits of the tape input
feeder part number indi-
cate the tape width.
