W A R N I N G

The ac power outlet (mains) must have a protective earth (ground) terminal. Serious shock hazard leading to death or injury may result if the plotter is not properly grounded.

Choosing an Interface Cable

(Instructions ' User's Guide, chapter 1, w Connect the plotter to your computer.)

Serial (RS&232&C) Interface A short cable (less than 15 meters or 50 feet) is recommended for the RS32323C interface. A longer cable is permissible, provided the load capacitance does not exceed 2500 picofarads.

Parallel (Bi&Tronics/Centronics) Interface Use a short cable (less than 2 meters or 6.6 feet) for the parallel interface.

(Interface descriptions ' Service Manual, chapter 5, w Input/Output Interfaces.)

 (Pin specifications ' User's Guide, chapter 5, w Interface specifications.)

 (Pin specifications ' User's Guide, chapter 10, w Interface specifications.)
