Hi all
following on from the great thread about scan fail systems
here http://photonlexicon.com/forums/showthread.php?t=4282
the posibility of designing an open source Scan fail unit that could be used by most people here....could become a reality
to start the discussion some of the things we need to look at are
1, conditions of failure
2, input sense requirements
3, compatability with scanner amps on the market
4, response time
5, output control ( beam shutter, diode blanking or both )
these are just a few that i can think of .... in no particular order
if anyone can think of other important criteria please contribute to this thread
all the best .... Karl
