RF link Operating Instructions 11

Printers

To install external RF link modules onto the printers:

1. Insert a 9-volt (PP3) battery in the module. See “Inserting Batteries” for

more information.

2. Attach VELCRO

to the serial port sides of the printer and the external

module. Place the VELCRO so the cable on the module can reach the
serial port.

3. Using the VELCRO, attach the module to the printer. Note that on the

Renegade 4 printer, you must place the module so the cable faces
down. On the Rascal printer, place the module so the cable faces up.
