    [Misc] OT-601 installation on FS-508 finisher

    Hi,
    I am trying to install the additional output tray OT-601 to an FS-508 finisher.
    I see other references to the insertion of a short-circuit plug to indicate the presence of the tray but I presume that that is for a different finisher, perhaps the FS518? I cannot find anything like that on this finisher.
    Physical installation is trivial but I just need the machine to acknowledge it.

    Any assistance would be greatly appreciated!

    Cheers,

      New Westminster, BC. Looks like neighborhood.
      A tree is known by its fruit, a man by his deeds. A good deed is never lost, he who sows courtesy, reaps friendship, and he who plants kindness gathers love.
      Blessed are they who can laugh at themselves, for they shall never cease to be amused.

        I downloaded an installation manual from one of the other posts here, which I see now is for C252, C300, C352.
        So I guess the instructions are for FS-514 which looks to be similar but different enough for this bit.

        If anyone has the installation manual for OT-601 onto FS-508 then I would be very appreciative.

        The finisher is getting a bit long in the tooth now, so I understand that this kind of thing is getting harder to come by. I do have a donor finisher which is non-functional that I can use for reference but I cannot see anything on there either and it does indeed have one of these trays installed.

          On what MFP type is that FS-508 attached? Never heard of it. Some Options are enabled via service mode but I'm not shure with this OT.

            this went on the C253 era machines..this gave the finisher a 3rd tray to drop docs on..Km has removed all documents from the web site for this OT. Sorry can't help. E

                Thank you very much strider555! It is very much appreciated!!!

                Sorry for these "archaeological" requests. This particular machine is still performing sterling service and got the option to do some upgrades to it from a broken donor machine.

                I really wish that KM (and other manufacturers) would just dump all the docs that they have onto an FTP server somewhere with a note that they will not provide assistance for out-of-service machinery. Even as a gesture of care for the environment.

                    glad you got it all sorted!
