E. CASH DRAWER CONNECTION
Using the Posiflex signal cable CCBLA-180 to control a Posiflex
cash drawer (CR3100 or CR3200). However, by using the Posiflex
signal split cable CCBLA-238, PP2000 series can control two Posiflex
cash drawers (CR3100 or CR3200). (CCBLA-180 is a standard
accessory with the Posiflex cash drawer CR3100 or CR3200.)
F. CONNECT TO HOST COMPUTER
The interface from PP2000 to host computer utilizes auto –
detection between serial and parallel. To avoid improper operation,
when one communication interface is in use, the input connector of the
other interface should never be connected with any cable. All the
external connectors are in the recessed area at the rear bottom. The 9 pin
D sub Female connector supports the RS232 series interface and the 25
pin D sub Male connector supports the parallel interface. The protocol
used in serial connection is defaulted: 9,600 bps, parity none, 8 data bits,
1 stop bit. The baud rate is adjustable from 2,400 to 19,200 bps.
G. POWER CONNECTION
If used with Posiflex PST POS system, PP2000 can use DC power
and the power cable from the POS system. If not, user must purchase
PP2000 standard power adaptor. Pull the outer sleeve of the 3 pin plug
of the power adaptor or power cord from the POS system backward to
release the internal latch. Then insert the plug to the power connector
and be sure to hear the click to obtain a firm contact. (Before extraction
of this power cable, be sure to pull the outer sleeve of the plug backward
too. Failure to do this could damage the power plug.) And then connect
the power cord of the power adaptor to the wall outlet or turn on the
POS system. Make sure that the type of power cord and the voltage
requirement of the power adaptor meet the local power conditions. Now
the printer is ready for power on.
