Setting The Serial Options
The Serial Purpose
The purpose of these options is to enable and set the needed parameters of
the Controller serial port.
A null modem cable with a standard 9-pin D connector at the controller end
and appropriate connector at the workstation end must be installed. Software
drivers may be required to be loaded at the customer workstation to enable
printing and control of the 8825/8830 Printer.
ENABLING OR DISABLING THE CONTROLLER SERIAL PORT
Range: ON or OFF
Default: ON
SETTING THE BAUD RATE OF THE CONTROLLER SERIAL PORT
Range: 300, 600, 1200, 2400, 4800, 9600, or 19200 baud
Default: 9600
Note: When retrieving documents through the serial port using the Document
Retrieval Tool, the port must be set to 9600 baud, Parity NONE, flow control:
NONE.
SETTING THE FLOW CONTROL OF THE CONTROLLER SERIAL PORT
Range: XON/XOFF, RTS CTS, BOTH, or NONE
Default: NONE
SETTING THE CONTROLLER SERIAL PORT PARITY
Range: EVEN, ODD, or NONE
Default: NONE
Note: For firmware releases 1.0
− 2.0, the upper serial port was used for
data input; the lower serial port was used for service.
For newer firmware releases (2.5, 2.7, 3.0), the upper serial port is used
for connection to the 8825/8830 DDS Control Panel if a scanner is
detected during startup. If a scanner is not detected during startup, the
upper serial port becomes the service port. The lower serial port is used
for RS-232C data transmission at up to and including 19,200 Baud
between a workstation and the printer.
With Firmware 4.0 and the new N5T with Tag 3 Controller the RS-232C
Serial Port is the uppermost port of the Controller.
