9.3Input and Output Signals

9.3.1Input and Output Signals

(1) Input signals to the printer

DATA

: An 8-bit parallel signal. (Active “High”)

 

 

 

 

 

: A strobe signal to read the 8-bit data. (Active “Low”)

STB

 

 

: A signal to reset the printer from the outside. (Active “Low”)

RESET

(2) Output signals from the printer

 

 

 

 

: An 8-bit data request signal. A pulse signal output at the end of the BUSY signal.

ACK

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

(Active “Low”)

BUSY

: A signal to indicate the BUSY status of the printer. Input new data when at "Low".

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

(Active “High”)

 

 

 

 

: A signal turned to "Low" when the printer has an alarm. At this time, all the control

 

FAULT

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

circuits in the printer stop. (Active “Low”)

SELECT

: A signal to show whether the printer is selected (On-line) or deselected. (Active

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

“High”)

COMPULSION

:A signal to show the status of the drawer switch. (Active “High”)

PE

: A signal to show that the paper has run out. Normal at the "Low" level, but turned to

 

 

the "High" level when the paper has run out.

(3) Power related signal

GND

: Common ground on the circuits

Vcc

: A +5 V signal. Connected via a 3.3kΩ resistor. (Factory use only)
