TK14 OPERATION MANUAL

3.6.2- Programming mode

The TK14 has a PROGRAMMING MODE in order to set up some parameters of the printer, without sending any command neither setting micro-switches.

In this mode, the printer makes some questions to the user. These questions must be answered by pressing one of the two push buttons.

PFEED button means “YES” and “PROG” button means “NO”.

To start the programming mode, turn off the printer and, holding the PROG button pressing, turn on the printer. Then the printer asks for the configurable parameters.

These are the configurable parameters during

PROGRAMMING MODE:

•Baudrate: 4800, 9600, 19200 or 38400 baud.

•Parity for serial transmission: ODD, EVEN, NO parity.

•Cutter mode: total cut, partial cut or passive cut

(no cutter).

Allways select “passive cut” for TK14.

•Wait until ticket pickup:

Enabling this option, user can not print a new ticket if the actual printed ticket has not been picked up; therefore, it can avoid a possible paper jam. User has to send the GS V command at the ticket end. While TK14 is waiting the ticket pick up, BUSY signal will remain active (BUSY=1). This option is enabled by default.

Alternately, user can make this control himself, by the DEL EOT command, testing the ticket pick up flag.

Any way, application programmer has to estimate the property application consequences and choose the correct option.
