Colortrac SmartLF Cx 40 Installation and Operating Manual

14. INSTALLING SMARTLF S/W FROM THE SOFTWARE INSTALLATION CD

Insert the software installation CD. It should Auto-Play. If the CD

fails to launch go to the CD drive using Explorer and double-click the

launch file to start the installer manually.

1. The SmartLF CD guides the user through connecting the

scanner, installing the software and utilities, lists the manuals

available and provides details of the Colortrac third party

software partners (CLASP). To go straight ahead and install the

software click the ‘Installing the Software’ button

2. At the software installation screen proceed to STEP 1 to install

the .NET environment if your computer requires it.

3. Click STEP 2 to install the SmartLF application.

Once the installation is complete you will be able to locate the

SmartLF program under Program Files > Colortrac > SmartLF.

You have now installed the SmartLF application.

Go to Programs from the Windows Start button and navigate to the

SmartLF entry and release. After a small delay the SmartLF screen

will display. Note that if the scanner is not powered up or the USB2

cable is not connected the software interface will appear greyed as

shown below.

15. LOADING A DOCUMENT INTO SMARTLF CX

Documents are loaded right-side justified and face-down with the edge of the paper in line with the first mark of the

document ruler markings. Look for the yellow paper symbol.

Colortrac SmartLF Cx is not limited to scanning recognised document sizes, for example A1, A2 and E size. The

maximum scan width for SmartLF is 1016mm (40”) but the maximum length is limited only by the attached computer

and scanning software. As soon as the READY status is displayed (after 35 seconds) documents can be loaded into

the scanner.
