Serial Configuration
The UMC600 has two serial ports. Both serial ports 1 and 2 are ASCII-compatible, 20 mA current loop, or RS-232
outputs. The serial format is compatible with most printers, scoreboards, and other remote devices. Each output can
be disabled, set for print on demand mode, or set to output data continuously.
Table 3-8 shows the configuration selections for parameter 14, which control the configuration of ports 1 and 2.
Note: Settings for simplex (14.S1) and duplex (14.dU) are the same except that ports 1 and 2 must have the same
baud rate when in duplex mode.
