EXTERNAL CONNECTIONS
As required by the hardware configuration, connect the keyboard to its host computer and other peripheral devices as shown in Figures 2 and 3. Note that the specific use for each connector on the keyboard is marked adjacent to each connector. Depending on the make and model of the user's equipment, the following cables and/or adapters may need to be supplied by the user to complete the installation:
Standard
Keyboard adapter
DRAWER JUMPER CONNECTIONS (PRINTER FIRED)
As shown on Figure 3, the Series 500 Keyboard has two status cash drawer ports. Each port is selectable by use of the jumper connector located next to the MAIN keyboard connector. This jumper connector is used to make the keyboard compatible with the different printer and cash drawer connections required by various manufacturers.
Jumper pin set A and B is used with cash drawer 1: pin set C and D is used with cash drawer 2. Installing the jumper on the B (drawer 1) and D (drawer 2) side of the connector causes the status signal from the cash drawer to be applied on pin 2 of the related cash drawer port. Installing the jumper on the A (drawer 1) and C (drawer 2) side of the connector causes the status signal from the cash drawer to be applied on pin 6 of the related cash drawer port which allows pin 2 to be used to open the drawer. Shown below are the pin connections for the cash drawer ports for each position of jumper. Identified by an "X" are the jumper setting used with typical Epson and Ithaca Peripheral devices.
