6.6 Using the Twinax Interface with IPDS
When twinax attached, the SCS adapter will, by default, NOT use the IPDS emulation if it is installed in the printer. The SCS adapter must be configured to use the installed SIMM for IPDS before it connects to the host.
6.7 Dual Addresses with the Twinax Interface
When installing a SIMM for IPDS and Coax/Twinax adapter into an Optra printer, it is possible to use both the IPDS emulation and the SCS emulation simultaneously. To use both emulations, supply the IPDS emulation and the SCS emulation with two different twinax addresses.
In the operator panels shown here, address 0 is for the SCS emulation and address 2 is for the IPDS emulation. See the next few pages for instructions on how to change the addresses.
Note: If the IPDS emulation and the SCS emulation are given the same address, the SCS emulation is used and the IPDS emulation is ignored. The word DUPLICATE is displayed in the operator panel.
