(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.
