A/C-7P RO, A/C-7S RO
NOTE
Whenever the printer is
powered off, the A/C-7P RO
must also be powered off to
ensure they stay in sync with
each other.
To install the A/C-7S RO:
1.Power off the printer and PC (if
used) and disconnect the power
cord(s).
2.Use the configuration switches
on the A/C-7S RO’s front panel
to select the desired output
protocol and the serial output
parameters for the interface.
Refer to Tables 4.1 and 4.5 for
configuration switch settings.
3.Connect the serial cable from
the A/C-7S RO’s “Serial Out”
connector to the printer’s serial
port.
4.If the sharing port is used, attach
a second serial cable to the A/C-
7S RO’s “Serial In” port. Note
that a PC or LAN connected to
the A/C-7S’s sharing port should
always be powered on when the
A/C-7S RO is operating. In
addition, the PC/LAN and the
interface must be using the same
serial parameters. Refer to
Section 5.1, Printer Sharing, for
more information.
5.Connect the wall mount
transformer from the outlet to
the A/C-7S RO’s “9V”
connector. Connect the power
cord(s) to the printer and PC (if
used).
6.Power on the A/C-7S RO, then
the printer. The A/C-7S RO’s
green LED lights labeled
“Power” and “Printer On Line”
should be on. If the sharing port
is used and handshaking
requirements are met, the LED
labeled “PC/LAN Ready” should
also be on.
7.Print an A/C-7S RO self-test.
Power off the interface, then set
configuration switch SW1:8 (far
right on the first switch bank) to
the “|” position. (If you are
operating a label printer, put the
printer in ASCII hex dump
mode, then power on the A/C-
7S RO. If the label printer starts
printing, the A/C-7S RO has
passed the self-test. To obtain a
printout of the current settings,
connect the A/C-7S RO to a
laser or dot-matrix printer.)
Power on the A/C-7S RO. After
the self-test prints, set
configuration switch SW1:8 back
to the “o” position, then cycle
the power one more time.
8.Refer to the self-test printouts to
determine which configuration
parameters need to be altered.
Change these parameters by
using the Host/PC download
commands. Refer Chapter 4 for
further information.
