USING
THE 99X-1
WITH
A
PRINTER INSTALLATIONINSTRUCTlONS
By placingthe PRINTONLY-NORMAL (52-8)to
the PRINTONLY position, the 99X-1 Interfacewill
drive a printerwith an RS-232-C interfacedirectly.
This allows the module to generatea hard-copy of
the data collected without the needfor commands
from a computeror keyboard.When the interface
isinstalledina Counterrrimerand the moduleis
startedwith the Count control, each time the
presetvalue is reached the data isautomatically
transferred to a printer. Ifthe Recycle mode is
selected (S2-6 Off), the Counter data iscleared
anda new cycle is startedimmediately. Ifthe One
Cycle mode issejected
(S2-6
On),
the counterwill
haltuntila resetisgenerated either by the-front-
panelResetswitchor by the Dwelltime expiring, at
which time a newcounting cycle will begin.
When the interfaceis installedina CounterOnly
module, a countingcycle isstarted by the front-
panetCount control. When the counting cycle is
stopped either bypressingthe Stop controlor by
bringingthe Master Enable(or Gate)inputlow, the
data which hasaccumulatedinthe counter will
be
transferred to the printer. If the Recyclemode is
selected, the counterwill beclearedand
a
new
data collection cycle startedas soon as the
counterisenabledeither by the Count controlif
the countingwas terminated bythe Stop switch, or
bythe Master Enable (or Gate) going highif the
countingwas stopped
by
thissignal. Ifthe One
Cycle mode isselected, the counterwilt continue
countingfrom the pointof interruptionwithout
beingreset when reenabledto count.
When power isapplied to the module, the Model
Number of the Moduleand the firmware version
will be printed.When any of the modeswitches
are changed, the modulemust be powered
up
againbefore the changesare recognized.
The Model
99X-1
RS-232-C
Interfacecan be
installedinthe ORTEC Models 994, 995, 996, and
997. To installthe RS-232-C interface,follow the
steps listed below:
I.
Removethe leftside platefrom the module.
If
the optional power supply is notalready
installed,skip to step
5.
2.
Removethe right side panel.
3. Remove the two screws holdingthe optional
powersupply to the bottom rightmodulebar.
4.
Remove the two screws on the top of the power
supply chassiswhich secure it to the bracket
mountedon the bottomleftmodule bar, and
movethe power supply chassisout of the
module.
5.
On the interfaceboard, set the switches
to
the
desired positionsusingTables
3
and
4
to match
the device to which itwill be connected.
6.
Ifinstalling into Models 996 or 997, replacethe
two
518"
metalstandoffs on the circuit board
of
the modulewith two 112" standoffsincludedin
the mounting kitfor 99X-1 interfaceboard.
7. Installthe interfaceboard intothe module,
slidingthe RS-232-C connector through the slot
in the rear panelof the module first and align
the40-pin connector on the back of the board
with the pinsprovidedon the counter board.
Use
care to ensure propermatch-upof
connector and pins.
8. Installthe two mountingscrews intothe
standoffs providedon the counter board.
9.
Reinstallthe power supply chassisifone is
present.
