INTRODUCTION

The

IEEE

-488 Interface Board

(Cat.

No.

8161) allows IEEE-488 computers or

instruments* to produce printed output

the

EPSON

FX,

and

MX series dot

matrix printers.

* I

EEE

-488 computers or instruments mean those which have been designed to

accommodate this standa

This compact board provides a complete electronic link between any IEEE-488

computer or instrument

and

the

EPSON

dot matrix printer.

Using this IEEE-488 1/F Board, the

SON

dot matrix printer

can

app

as:

• Peripheral printer for mini/micro computer systems.

•

Hard

copy output devi

for inte

lli

gent data terminals.

• Forms generation for scientific

and

data communication systems.

all

intents

and

purposes, to the intent of the specification; however, it

specifically designed for

use

with

Setting of

DIP

Switches

There

are

two

DIP

switches

the

IEEE

-488

1nterfac

Board

(Cat.

. 8161}.

The

methods of setting these

itches

are

described below.

(1)

DIP

SW1

This switch

used to assign the printer (device} number.

The

"ON"

sition of

each

corresponds to binary code

and

the

"OFF" position, binary code

"0",

respectively.

INSTALLATION

Installing

the

Interface Board

FX Series Printer

install the

IEEE

-488 Interface

Board

(Cat.

. 8161)

FX Series printer,

observe the following procedure.

(1)

Turn off the power switches of both the printer

and

the host computer.

NOTE:

Power should always be turned off when inserting or removing the interface

board. Removal or insertion of the interface board

with

the power turned

could cause permanent damage to the board itself,

well

to the printer

and

the host computer.

(2)

Pull

and

remove the manual paper feed knob.

(3)

Remove the four screws shown

(4)

Lift the upper case of the printer, unplug the cable connector connecting the

control panel

and

the control circuit board from the control circuit board.

(See

Fig.

4.)

(5)

Remove the upper case

and

the shield cover. After the upper case

has

been

removed, four poles

are

visible at the inner

rear

left of the printer.
