Connecting to System
ida FS 250, Operator's Guide
-13-
For this connection you need a spare cable ending in a 25-pole RS connector
(i-data order no. 999010 030).
To use the serial input, Function 24 Data Input/Output Port Select must be set
to zero (which is factory default).
On the PC you must also make the following settings to match the default
settings on the box:
Function Y15: Baud rate, set to 5 = 9600
Function Y16: Number of data bits, set to 8 = 8 bits
Function Y17: Parity, set to 1 = No Parity
Function Y18, Number of Stop Bits, set to 1 = 1 Stop Bit
If this is not possible, you must change the functions 15, 16, 17 and 18 on the
box to match the PC's values.
NOTE:
Programming of functions 15, 16, 17, 18 and 24 is not possible via the
serial port. These functions have to be programmed either via the twinax
or via the parallel input port.
TWINAX CONNECTOR
Before the twinax cable is connected, be sure to turn the box power
OFF.
When power is turned off, plug the automatically terminating twinax
T-cable into the socket on the rear panel and turn the connector ring
clockwise to lock.
ADDRESS SWITCH: EMULATION & PRINTER DRIVER SELECTION
You use the address switch for selecting/changing emulation, setting
the address and for generating test printouts. Tests can also be
made via the line. See the section Testing for details.
For details on emulation see the section : Emulation
The switch is also for future printer driver selection. Note that the
device is set to PCL mode as a default which is the only supported
printer driver mode. Do not attempt to change this.
Y24 = 0 is also
used for
Centronics
output.
