Serial Interface (RS-232C) Signals

Frame Ground: FG

Connects the unit frame and the earth ground conductor of the AC power cord.

Transmitted Data: SD (TXD) RRRRRRRR (output) Conveys signals from the unit to the printer. A “Mark” condition is held unless data or BREAK signals are being transmitted.

Received Data: RD (RXD) RRRRRRRRR (input)

Conveys signals from the printer.

Request to Send: RS (RTS) RRRRRRRRR (output)

This lead remains ON whenever DR (DSR) is ON.
