Chapter 4 Coax/Twinax (CTHI) Emulation

Simple Prot Conv

The Simple Protocol Converter (SPC) option allows those who use third party add-on Coax or Twinax protocol converters to produce the same output on a Line Matrix printer with the Coax/Twinax (CTHI) capability as done using a non-CT printer with the third party converter interfaces.

The SPC replaces the third party add-on protocol converters attached to older line matrix printers.

The SPC gives the printer the operational ability to connect to any PC, or network system supporting parallel or serial interfaces, and to three different IBM host systems: System 3x, AS/400®, and 3270 Mainframes.

The SPC will support the following third party models for Twinax: MODE 219, MODE IBM, and MODE PROLINE.

The printer emulations supported by the SPC are Twinax 5225 and Coax 3287. The SPC also provides a range of interfaces available in your line matrix printer: Centronics, Dataproducts, Serial, Coax, and Twinax. Also supported are Epson, Proprinter, P-Series, Serial Matrix, IGP/VGL, and IGP/PGL emulations.

The SPC has the ability to handle multiple print jobs concurrently through Coax/Twinax and Parallel and Serial interfaces. This is accomplished through the Auto Switching feature (see page 86). Because of hardware restrictions, Coax and Twinax cannot be selected together.

For more information, consult the Coax/Twinax Programmer's Reference Manual for the Simple Protocol Converter Option.
