What is Intelligent MultiFeed Function (iMFF)?
• iMFF is an acronym for “Intelligent MultiFeed Function”
• Intelligent MultiFeed Function (iMFF) is the most versatile way for advanced control of the Ultrasonic multifeed sensors
• iMFF is a functionality used on the Fujitsu fi-5950 high-speed production scanner and it’s three independent Ultrasonic sensors
• There are three intelligent modes for iMFF:
– ‘Manual mode’ to bypass a single page with overlapping items
– ‘Auto mode 1’ to bypass same size and same location overlapping
– ‘Auto mode 2’ to bypass overlapping items of various lengths
• iMFF was engineered specifically based on customer feedback
– High volume production scanning/service bureau environments encounter many unstructured form types and this can include physical and not just content
• Sticky notes, bar code stickers, photographs, address labels, receipts, scotch tape on torn pages, etc.

fi-5950 is equippedwith three independent
Ultrasonic sensors
This is intended as a quick overview and does not cover the full functionality of these advanced Intelligent features. Please refer to the “Intelligent MultiFeed Function Operator’s Guide” for more information.

How to configure the Intelligent MultiFeed Function (iMFF)
• Step # 1) Start the Software Operation (SOP) Panel. Start > Programs > Scanner Utility for Microsoft Windows > Software Operation Panel
• Note: It might be useful to place a shortcut on your desktop and/or in your quick launch programs as I have in the sample below:
Software Operation Panel (SOP)

Do not run SOP while using VRS
• Step # 2) A message will pop-up to warn users that they should not start the SOP while running Kofax VRS. Select the OK button if not running VRS. If so, quit VRS then start the SOP.

‘Retain Image’ feature
• Step # 7) After a multifeed error detection, press the [OK] button to retain the scanned image or press the [Rescan] button to discard
Applications and use scenarios:• Medical records with bar code patient information
• Expense reports with taped on receipts
• Invoices with attached checks
• Random sticky notes
• Insurance claims with associated photos

Benefits of Three Independent US Sensors
Automobile Insurance Form example
Bob,Please review
The left Ultrasonic sensor can be configured completely OFF or to ignore only specific areas of a document. In this case, set to ignore the area of the document that contains the image of the car where clients tape the photo to the page.
The middle Ultrasonic sensor is configured to detect multifeed documents. No multifeed detected on this example therefore scanning would continue normally.
The right Ultrasonic sensor also has been configured to detect any multifeed documents. In this case a yellow sticky note is detected and the scanner can be setup to notify the operator and stop scanning and/or pause scanning in order to immediately take corrective action. Important information under the sticky note is not lost.
Note: General use of 3 US sensors example. If the documents have might have bar code labels, post-it notes or photos consistently in the same position then use this this function prior to using iMFF.

Manual mode with ‘Retain Image’ feature
• Use this mode when you want to continue scanning, while checking for overlapping items every time a Multifeed error is detected.

Dental Records with Labels & Photos (Random patterns)
Labels and Random Photos example
Ideally these example Dental Insurance forms would have been printed with the Dentist’s office address but assume this area was not printed or they had moved. Printing these forms is expensive and not wise to waste these documents
Dr. Scott Steiner License #A2873121255 E. Arques Ave 408-555-1212Sunnyvale, CA 94085
The Ultrasonic Multifeed Detection has been configured to not detect multifeeds in the area where the address sticker is located, while still detecting multifeeds in the rest of the left Ultrasonic Sensor area.
Before &after photos
For the photographs, they could cover critical data underneath where attached to the page so we want the operator to verify this at scan time

Auto mode 1 (Bypass by combination of length and position)
• Use this mode when you scan many sheets in a fixed format; for example, when every sheet has the same size item attached at the same location.
Example of a long EKG strip cut into three sections then taped onto a letter-sized page
Easily press the OK button to accept or press the Rescan button to reject and continue

Electrocardiogram (ECG, EKG)
Auto mode 1 (Bypass by combination)
Meanwhile on the top, some middle portions and the bottom of this page Ultrasonic Detection would still reliably catch an unintentional multifeed (sticky note, etc.)
The electrocardiogram (ECG, EKG) is used extensively in the diagnosis of heart disease, from congenital heart disease in infants to myocardial infarction and myocarditis in adults. Several different types of electrocardiogram exist.
Fixed format of three EKG strips always taped to pages to be set to ignore intentional overlapping items

Auto mode 2 (Bypass by length)
• Use this mode when you scan multiple sheets, each having different-size overlapping items at different locations.
Cash register receipts taped to letter-sized paper. Can be used for high volume scanning to capture signatures on receipts for retail business

Receipt Scanning for Point of Sale/Retail
Auto mode 2 (Bypass by maximum length)
Upon detection of a true multifeed or longer overlapping items the Ultrasonic sensor would detect and alert the operator for intervention or to memorize the new pattern
The volume of Point of Sale receipt tape produced daily by Retail businesses, restaurants and stores in general can prove to be overwhelming. Capturing the receipt with a customers signature authorizing charges on their credit cards helps to safeguard against legal disputes and assist in better customer service overall.
The first receipt was scanned and obviously an overlap was detected. With iMFF the scanner memorized this length and allows bypass of the same length or shorter
Since the second receipt is shorter than the first memorized length, a MultiFeed is not detected.
