Introduction System Overview Welcome to the 3M Smart Check System! Please take the time to read through this guide to help you understand how your Smart Check system works. Keep this guide accessible when the system is in use as it will serve as a reference guide should questions arise. The Smart Check system allows library patrons to check in books on their own. The system emulates the check-in procedures performed by a librarian.
Components Smart Check Components Receipt Printer Receipt Printer Slot The receipt printer prints patron receipts and extends them through the receipt printer slot. Barcode Scanner Cove Light Touchscreen The touchscreen acts as the patron interface for the Smart Check system, and also can be used to access the administrative functions. Security Door Touch screen Cove Light Front Conveyor The cove light illuminates the cove area.
Tunnel Belt System The tunnel belt system transports library items from the front conveyor belt to the Smart Sorter system (if connected) and sensitizes security strips installed in library items. The tunnel belt system includes the tunnel conveyor belt and belt motor, a tunnel sensitizer, and LED sensors (not shown in picture).
Communication This system sends and receives information from the library’s automated circulation system (ACS). The information is exchanged in a manner consistent with 3M’s Standard Interface Protocol: SIP-2, SIP -2X or NCIP (NISO Circulation Interchange Protocol). This system also communicates with patrons by leading them through the process of checking in materials via on-screen graphics and text and optional sounds.
