(4) Power down function
In order to reduce power consumption when printer is waiting for the operation, 2 power down modes triggered
by the codes DC2 and DC3 are incorporated into this product. When the printer receives power down
commands (DC2 or DC3), it switches to the power down mode after all entered data is printed out.
a) DC2 (12H)
Unit switches to power down mode when DC2 code is entered. Operation of the oscillator is not
terminated.
[Power down release]
(a-1)RESET input
By applying “LOW” pulse to the RESET terminal for more than 4ms, the power down mode is
cleared, thereby switching the unit to operational condition approximately 100ms after initialization.
b) DC3 (13H)
Unit switches to power down mode when DC3 code is entered.
Operation of the oscillator is terminated, reducing the power consumption to less than that of the DC2
power down mode.
[Power down release]
(b-1)RESET input
By applying “LOW” pules to the RESET terminal for more than 4ms, the power down mode is
cleared, thereby in HIGH-level switching the unit to operational condition approximately 100ms after
initialization.
(5) Escape control command
By entering ESC (1BH) followed by an ASCII code, the control command indicated below are performed.
Symbol n after the ASCII code indicates an 8 bit binary number. The “+” symbol is used merely as a separator
and is not to be entered.
