For the best results, make sure your Display Properties are set to show High Color or True Color (i.e., more than 256 colors). General instructions are provided here. Refer to the documentation that came with your computer for further details about changing display settings for your computer. To change color depth or screen size (resolution): a) Click Start b) Select Settings/Control Panel c) Double click on the Display control panel d) Click on the Settings tab. e) Select either High Color or True Color. (Note: Your monitor type and video adapter determine the maximum number of colors available for your display.) f) Adjust the slider for a minimum screen area to 800x600.

g) Click OK.

MACINTOSH 1) Insert the CD into your CD-ROM drive. The CD icon will appear on the desktop. Double-click the icon and then double-click on the Install RFS 3600 TWAIN Data Source icon to start the software installation procedure. If you have more than one version of Adobe Systems software (Photoshop, Photoshop LE or Photoshop Elements) on your MACINTOSH, the installer will located all instances of Import/Export folders and prompt you for the location to place the RFS 3600 module. Select the Import/Export folder of the Adobe software you expect to use most frequently and a new plug-in "Kodak RFS 3600" will be put inside the that folder. If you want to use the RFS 3600 software with more than one Adobe software package, make a copy of the RFS 3600 plug-in and place it in the additional Import/Export folders. 2) Some non-English versions of Adobe software do not name these plug-in folders Import/Export. We suggest you temporarily rename the folders to Import/Export for the software installation. After the installation is complete, change their names back to their non-English names. 3) Follow all prompts to reboot your machine. 4) The video settings for your monitor will affect the appearance of your scans and the performance of the RFS 3600 Acquire Module.

Select either thousands or millions of colors. c) Your screen size (resolution) might change as a result of changing color settings, so you may have to trade off between the number of colors your display can show and the size of the desktop area you can work with. The minimum resolution is 800 x 600. This will help you see your pictures at the largest possible size. The Acquire Module can still be run using other resolution settings.

Post-Installation

To ensure that the prescan image in the RFS 3600 software matches the final scan which is transferred into ADOBE PHOTOSHOP, please take the following steps: ADOBE PHOTOSHOP 5.0 or 5.5 navigate to the File>Color Settings>RGB Setup menu. Make sure that the "Display Using Monitor Compensation" box is not checked and click the OK button. ADOBE PHOTOSHOP 6.0 navigate to the Edit>Color Settings menu. In the Settings dropdown listing, select Color Management Off. Performing these setups ensures that ADOBE PHOTOSHOP does not apply an additional profile to the image after it has been scanned.
Launch the RFS 3600 Film Scanner Host Software and make sure the monitor and output profiles selected in the Settings tab are the same. (Selecting the Kodak sRGB Display profile should produce satisfactory results in most cases). The monitor profile controls how the prescan image is rendered and the output profile controls how the final scan is rendered. If these profiles are the same, the prescan shown in the RFS 3600 Host Software should match the final scan which appears in ADOBE PHOTOSHOP. If you are using the Scan to File feature, review the new Embed Output Profile function which has been implemented in this software release.

Firmware

Your RFS 3600 Film Scanner must have firmware version 1.34 installed before version 2.10 or later Host Software can operate the film scanner. This version 2.10 Host Software may be used to upgrade your film scanners firmware. Your film scanner may already have this firmware version installed. If it does not, use the firmware file 3600_133.bin located the Firmware folder on the Host Software CD. If you do not have the Host Software CD, you may obtain the firmware file from www.kodak.com. See Page 60 of the Users Manual and the Information Icon section of this document for the film scanner firmware upgrade procedure.

Software Operation

Adobe Systems Software
In this document, it is assumed the image editing program in use is ADOBE PHOTOSHOP (Photoshop). For information regarding hardware system requirements, software features, online or printed manual instructions and help or other software issues dealing with ADOBE PHOTOSHOP, ADOBE PHOTOSHOP LE or PHOTOSHOP ELEMENTS, you may contact Adobe Systems Incorporated via their web site at: www.adobe.com. Do not contact the Eastman Kodak Company for information regarding Adobe System software installation, features or operation.
Troubleshooting Connectivity
The following information is provide to help you troubleshoot any RFS 3600 to computer connectivity problems. Before checking your system, ensure the following have been completed:
Did you install the Kodak software? If you cannot find the Kodak software on the ADOBE PHOTOSHOP File Import submenu, the software has not been correctly installed. Turn off your computer, disconnect any cables between the film scanner and your computer, restart your computer and install the software per the section Software Installation. Is the film scanner connected? Ensure your cables are connected to both to your computer and the film scanner. If you are using the SCSI interface, turn off your film scanner and computer before connecting or disconnecting a SCSI cable. Ensure you dialed a valid SCSI id number on the bottom of the film scanner and the SCSI termination has been set. When using the SCSI system, you must turn on the

Host Software installer places the RFS 3600 USB driver, RFS3600Extension, in the System Folders Extensions folder.
MICROSOFT WINDOWS 2000 and MICROSOFT WINDOWS XP may not support your installed SCSI interface board. Check www.microsoft.com, Hardware Compatibility List Database, for complete information regarding the OS and supported SCSI Host Adapters. MICROSOFT WINDOWS 98SE, ME, 2000, XP Pro and XP Home USB Interface The procedure to check the drivers for these MICROSOFT WINDOWS operating systems is very similar. On the MICROSOFT WINDOWS Desktop, right-click on the My Computer icon and select Properties from the popup menu that appears. On the Properties window that appears, open the Device Manager. You may have to first navigate to a Hardware tab. View the devices by Type and a RFS 3600 (USB) entry will be seen under the Imaging devices heading. Double-click the RFS 3600 (USB) listing and examine the driver details. The driver seen should have an entry similar to this: <winroot>\system32\usbscan.sys If there is a yellow exclamation point on the RFS 3600 scanner icon when you review the Device Manager entries, there is a problem with the driver. Reinstalled the RFS 3600 Version 2.10 software. MICROSOFT WINDOWS 98SE SCSI Interface When connected via SCSI, the Win 98SE Device Manager tab of the System Properties analyzer will have an listing Kodak RFS 3600 as an Imaging Device. Click Properties, Driver File Details and the driver <winroot>\system\VMM32.VXD is listed. This is a Microsoft Windows driver and it should be the driver you use. MICROSOFT WINDOWS 2000 SCSI Interface Click Imaging Devices and the film scanner will be listed as Kodak RFS 3600. Doubleclick the film scanner listing and bring up the Kodak RFS 3600 Properties box; click the Driver tab and then the Driver Details button. The correct MICROSOFT WINDOWS 2000 driver should have a listing <winroot>\system32\drivers\scsiscan.sys.
Troubleshooting Memory Problems
Computer memory error messages may appear while you are operating the RFS 3600 Film Scanner. The causes of these error messages are varied, but they may be completely suppressed if you setup your system correctly and form some easy to adopt scanning habits. If you are not completely comfortable with checking and/or modifying computer system settings, have a knowledgeable friend or co-worker help you. First, it is not necessary or even desirable to scan multiple high dpi images directly into ADOBE PHOTOSHOP. Every large image file you send to ADOBE PHOTOSHOP is data that ADOBE PHOTOSHOP and your computers OS must manage and maintain in both system memory and in virtual memory. Your system will create hard drive temporary

Scan All or select one thumbnail (which deselects all others), all prescanned frames are deselected except for the frame displayed in the tabs. If Scan All is enabled and then Scan or Scan to File is selected after one or more frames have been prescanned, a final scan is performed on each prescanned frame and on all remaining frames on the filmstrip located to the left of the prescanned frames. For example, if the first 4 frames of a 36 frame filmstrip are prescanned and then Scan All is enabled, when Scan or Scan to File is selected, a final scan of all filmstrip frames is performed. If the Auto Balance button is enabled, the scanner will perform 2 scans of every frame that has not been prescanned. The first scan will perform a Prescan which does not generate a visible image, i.e. the prescan image will not be displayed on the user interface. This Prescan necessary because the Auto Balance software requires data from the Prescan. The second scan will perform the final scan.
If the Scan All feature is disabled, the operation the film scanners prescan and scan functions remain the same as in the previous version 1.20 Host Software. The Scan All feature is by default disabled and it will be disabled each time the RFS 3600 Host Software is started. DMin Cal DMin Cal is a new software feature which is applicable when using Color Negative or Black and White Negative filmstrips. When a filmstrip is inserted into the film scanner, the scanner normally performs an automatic DMin (Density minimum) measurement. The procedure makes a measurement of the lowest film density present on the filmstrip (usually the interframe gap). If you have six 6-frame strips from the same 36-frame roll, the DMin value probably will be the same on each 6-frame strip. If you want, you may allow the DMin measurement to be performed on the first strip and disable the DMin measurement for the remaining five strips to save time. If DMin Cal is enabled and a Color Negative or B&W Negative film type is selected, the DMin measurement will be performed on every filmstrip inserted into the film scanner. If Reversal Film Type is selected, the DMin Cal is automatically disabled and may not be enabled. If a Color Negative or B&W Negative type is selected and DMin Cal is disabled, the DMin measurement will not be performed when a filmstrip inserted into the film scanner. However, if a DMin measurement has not been made since the Host Software has been started, one will be performed for the first Color Negative or B&W filmstrip inserted, even if the DMin Cal feature is disabled. If Reversal Film Type is selected and then Color Negative or B&W Film Type is selected, DMin Cal will automatically be enabled. The setting of the DMin Cal button, enabled or disabled, is saved from scan session to scan session. The default setting is Enabled.

When scanning Color Negative or B&W negative filmstrips, be sure the strip has less than one half of the frame completely exposed (i.e. film is totally black). The DMin measurement will fail if the scanner "sees" a full frame of black film. Trim the film strip so that when it is inserted into the scanner, the first frame has some transparent leader. Similarly, a problem might exist if you exit the Host Software when the last frame of your filmstrip is near the exit port of the scanner. If you start the Host Software, the scanner will sense a filmstrip in the scanner and perform the DMin measurement. In this case, there will not be a full frame of film below the scanning head and the film scanner will incorrectly measure the light source. If this happens, eject the filmstrip and reload it. A new minimum density measurement will be performed. Light Cal This feature existed on previous RFS 3600 Host Software, but its button has been moved to this new location. If this button is enabled, the film scanner will perform a light source calibration before each final scan. If this button is disabled, the film scanner will skip making this calibration. The exception is if the film scanner had been in its low power mode where its lamp was turned off to save energy. In this situation, a light source calibration will be performed automatically once the lamp has warmed up and the Preparing film scanner message window is displayed. The setting of the Light Cal button, enabled or disabled, is saved from scan session to scan session. The default setting is Enabled. Window Resize You may now grab the lower right corner of the main screen, drag it and make the software screen larger or smaller. The minimum screen size limit is 800 x 600 pixels.

Configuration Icon

Clicking the new Configuration icon brings up the screen seen in Figure 4. The setting of all options on the Configuration screen are saved from scan session to scan session.
Figure 4, Configuration Screen

Prescan Resolution

You may now select between three different prescan resolutions 300, 600 or 900 dpi. A high dpi Prescan will maintain higher image quality longer if you magnify the Prescan using the Zoom In tool. However, higher dpi Prescans will take longer to perform and process and place larger temporary files on your hard drive. The files will be deleted when the Host Software is closed.

Embed Output Profile

Checking this box will cause your Output Profile selection to be embedded into the image file when performing the Scan to File option. It is not possible to embed the Output Profile if you are scanning directly into ADOBE PHOTOSHOP.

Defaults

Clicking this button will reset the Configuration Screen to the default settings seen in Figure 4. You may not change the default settings.

Scan Profile

The location of the Scan Profile function has been moved to the lower left corner of the Main Window. The Scan Profile operation has not been modified since the version 1.20 Host Software release. Custom Scan Profiles created with version 1.00 Host Software will not operate correctly with version 2.10 Host Software. You should recreate those Scan Profiles using this new software release.

Scan Icons

All of the icons dealing with film scanning have been grouped together in the middle of the bottom edge of the main screen. These icons, seen in Figure 5, are, left to right: Autofocus (AF), Prescan Frame, Prescan Strip, Scan and Scan to File. These functions of these buttons have not been changed or enhanced.

Figure 5, Scan Icons

Autofocus
Initial Setup The first Prescan or Scan on a slide and on a filmstrip after the installation of this Host Software will first start with an Autofocus operation. Slide Autofocus The AF button is enabled whenever the film scanner detects the presence of a slide. No longer does a Prescan of the slide have to be performed before the AF button is enabled. Filmstrip Autofocus The AF button is enabled whenever the film scanner detects the presence of a filmstrip (after the filmstrip Dmin function has been completed). If a filmstrip Prescan or Scan is attempted without an Autofocus first being performed, you will be presented with a message asking for confirmation of the Prescan/Scan. After loading a filmstrip, we suggest you align a valid image frame in the film scanner's view window before exercising the autofocus function. Align the frame by tapping the scanners Reverse or Forward buttons, or by Control-clicking (Option-clicking on MACINTOSH) on the Host Softwares Move Filmstrip left/right icon. Then click on the Autofocus button.

Manual focus

After the Autofocus operation is completed, a Prescan of the slide or filmstrip frame will be performed. Subsequent "clicks" of the AF button when the same slide or filmstrip is installed will produce an Autofocus / Manual focus option. Selecting one of these options will cause an focus operation to be performed on the frame currently in the scan position. The Manual focus operation allows you to command a specific focus point. This set focus point value will be used for all slide and filmstrip prescans and final scans until a different focus point is set either by a new AF or Manual focus operation.

Focus Details

The focus point value, either from an AF or Manual focus operation, is saved and used from scan session to scan session. It is up to you, the film scanner's user, to decide how often you want to use the focus feature. A mounted slide and a filmstrip have different focus points. Also, slide mounts with different thickness will have different focus points. Your computer will store the separate values used for the last slide and filmstrip focus point. If you connect your film scanner to a different computer, or connect a different RFS 3600 to your computer, you should perform new autofocus operations on slides and filmstrips. Please note: This filmstrip and slide focusing feature cannot compensate for soft frames captured by a poorly focused camera. In order to produce sharp images on your negatives, you must have your camera correctly focused when exposing the film.
Image Viewing and Editing
Figure 6, Preview and Thumbnails

Thumbnails

Page 49 of the original User's Manual states that image thumbnails will not be affected by color adjustments made by the user. This is incorrect; the thumbnails will reflect the changes seen in the Preview Image. The thumbnail strip across the top of the Main Screen has some new features. Click on a thumbnail to select it and the frames Preview Image appears in the Preview Screen. The thumbnail which is currently being displayed in the Preview Screen has a dashed red border. See thumbnail number 15 in Figure 6. Shift-click to select consecutive thumbnails; Control-click to select individual, non-consecutive thumbnails. A crop box on a Preview Image will also be seen on its thumbnail when the thumbnail is selected. As seen in Figure 7, the thumbnail listing now shows both the total number of thumbnails that were generated and how many have been selected. Notice that the maximum number of frames allowed on a filmstrip has been increased to 40.

Figure 7, Frame Selection
White/Gray/Black Balance Eyedroppers
The black, gray and white eyedroppers adjust the brightness and contrast of an image such that the new brightness of the point chosen by the user is either black, mid-scale gray or white. The operation of these color balance eyedroppers has been changed to more closely reflect the operation you have seen in ADOBE PHOTOSHOP. Note: As with ADOBE PHOTOSHOP eyedroppers, the RFS 3600 Host Software eyedroppers values will be saved from scan session to scan session. To reset the RFS 3600 eyedroppers values to their default values, perform a Prescan and then click the Default Balance button. Eyedropper usage example: After performing a Prescan, double-click the black eyedropper tool, enter a value of 20 for Red, Green and Blue and then click OK. The pointer then changes to a black eyedropper. Using the Preview Image or the image in the Image Window, you then select (click on) a pixel having RGB code values of 50, 55 and 60 (example only). The code values of this pixel will be shifted to 20, 20, 20 and the pixel values throughout the image are adjusted proportionately. The operation of the black balance eyedroppers is similar. In the case of the gray eyedropper, the point chosen by the user will now have a brightness level similar to that of a mid-scale gray although the point itself may not become gray (have equal code values).

Image Window

No new features have been added to the Image Window. However, using the Image Window with the new high dpi Prescan function will help you perform accurate cropping and color adjustment operations. See Prescan Resolution.
Frame Number The thumbnail number of the frame which is currently being displayed in the Preview Window is shown in the upper right corner of the Settings Tab. See Frame Numbering to learn how to match the thumbnails numbers with the filmstrips frame numbers.

Figure 8, Frame Number

Auto Balance Button The Auto Balance button has been moved onto the Setting Tab and placed next to the Sharpening radio buttons. The Auto Balance function remains the same; its default is On (depressed) for Negative and B&W film types and Off (raised) for the Reversal film type. Scan and Output Settings These two functions have a complete new look and operation. See the Scan and Output Settings section of this addendum for a complete explanation. Crop Box The Crop Boxs Height and Width minimum values have been change to be 0.01.
Color Balance and Levels & Curves Tab
Page 73 and 75 of the original User's Manual state that the Before and After images on the Color Balance and Levels & Curves tabs will be identical when you enter the respective tab. This is only true if you have made no adjustments to the image with the black/gray/white balance eyedroppers, the color tools, or the tone curve tools. If you make image adjustments, the After image will show the cumulative effect of the adjustments, while the Before image will maintain the look of your original scan. Frame Number As seen in Figure 9 below, the thumbnail number of the frame which is currently being displayed in the Before and After Image windows is shown between those two images. See Frame Numbering to learn how to match your thumbnails numbers with the filmstrips frame numbers.

Figure 9, Color Balance, Levels & Curves
Custom Settings Also seen in Figure 9 are asterisks to the left and right of the tab titles. These asterisks appear on the top of the tab if you have made changes to tabs image using the tools on the Color Balance or the Levels & Curves tab. On the Color Balance tab, this would be adjustments to any of the 6 sliders. On the Levels & Curves tab, any modification to the Channels Curve or to the Histogram Sliders will cause the asterisks to appear. These asterisks serve as a visual reminder because any adjustments made on these two tabs are saved from scan session to scan session. After starting a new scan session, you may delete these saved adjustments by navigating to the affected tab and clicking on the tabs Reset Button. Color Tools The color tools on the Color Balance and on the Levels & Curves tabs have been modified so their effects on the Preview Image are not so aggressive. If you use Version 1.00 Scan Profiles which include adjustments using these color tools, you will need to update these Scan Profiles.

Scan and Output Settings

Figure 10, Scan and Output Settings
The Scan and Output settings (Resolution, Height and Width) are laid out to allow their values to be easily compared, and to make the relationships between these fields more apparent. The Magnification value from Scan to Output is no longer displayed, but is still maintained by the software. The operation of the six data entry boxes, Resolution, Height and Width, have been updated so the Host Software accepts a value when you press your keyboards Enter or Return key. The Relationship Between Scan, Output and Magnification The relationship between the Scan and Output settings and the underlying Magnification remains the same: Size Output Width = Scan Width * Magnification Output Height = Scan Height * Magnification Resolution Scan Resolution = Output Resolution * Magnification The Size and Resolution are inversely proportional (i.e. as one gets larger the other gets proportionally smaller). Simply stated, as an image is enlarged by a certain percentage from the 35mm slide or negative to a specific output size, the overall size of the image (stated in dots or pixels) remains the same. But, the resolution (measured in dots or pixels per inch) is reduced by the same factor that the scan size was enlarged to the output size. See Figure 11, Relationship Between Scan Settings and Output Settings. This figure illustrates the affects of scanning the full area on a 35mm frame (0.96 x 1.44 inches) and making a 4x6 inch print using the scanned image. This is a 417% enlargement from the 35mm frame to the 4x6 print. The 35mm frame was scanned at a resolution of 2000 dots per inch (dpi), resulting in a 1920 x 2880 dot (or pixel) digital image. When the 1920 x 2880 digital image is printed on 4x6 inch paper, the resulting output resolution is 480 dpi,

which is a 24% reduction from the scan resolution of 2000 dpi. Note that this is also a 417% increase in resolution from Output back to the Scan. Automatic Software Adjustments As in Version 1.x Host Software, whenever you change a Scan or Output setting, the software has to change one or more of the other settings to balance the formulas listed above. In Version 2.10, the rules the software follows to determine which settings to change are different: Magnification is the first setting the software will change. If needed, the Output Resolution and/or Output Width and Height are the next settings the software will change. The software will only adjust the Scan Resolution and Scan Width and Height as a last resort.
For example, if you start with the Factory Default settings (no cropping, 3600 dpi) and change the Output Width to 6 inches, the software will change the Magnification to 417% (6 / 1.44). It will then change the Output Height to 4 inches and the Output Resolution to 863 dpi using the new Magnification. The Scan Width, Height and Resolution are not changed. Locking Scan and Output Settings Since the rules the software follows for changing settings will not meet every situation, Version 2.10 also includes the ability to lock a setting. When a setting is locked, you may change its value, but the software may not. The following settings may be locked: Output Width and Height Output Resolution Scan Width and Height Scan Resolution
The lock buttons operate as a toggle. To lock a setting, place the cursor on its lock button ( ) and press the selection button on your computers pointing device. The button will ). Simply change appearance to indicate that the associated setting is locked ( perform this operation again to unlock the setting.
You can lock only one of the resolutions at a time and only lock one set of the Width and Height fields at a time. When the Output Size is locked, a crop box (and therefore the Scan Size) will automatically adhere to the aspect ratio defined by the Output Width and Height. In addition, when you have locked the Output Size, clicking the Preview Image outside the crop box will not eliminate a crop box. To dismiss a crop box, unlock the Output Size and click outside the crop box.

Intended Use and Output Resolution The Intended Use field allows you to set the Output Resolution by selecting the intended use of the image. The choices are seen below, the resolution listed to the right of each choice indicates its corresponding Output Resolution. Print E-Mail Internet Archive Custom 300 dpi 72 dpi 72 dpi 3600 dpi Does not change existing dpi
When one of the first 4 choices is selected, its corresponding resolution value is automatically entered into the Output Resolution field. When any choice other than Custom is selected, the Output Resolution field is disabled from being directly edited. When Custom is selected, the Output Resolution field is enabled for editing, and its most-recent value remains. Common Sizes and Output Size The Common Sizes field provides a list of common output sizes for you to choose from. Common Sizes include sizes such as the following: 4x6 inches 5x7 inches 8x12 inches
When one of these choices is selected, its corresponding width and height values are automatically entered into the Output Width and Height fields. When any of these choices is selected other than Custom, the Output Width and Height fields are disabled from being directly edited. When common size Custom is selected, the Output Width and Height fields are enabled for editing, and their most-recent values remain.
