Connecting EPI STR-LINK Recorders

Figure B.5 illustrates the connections. Connect the STR-LINK Recorder
(DATA SET INTERFACE connector) to the DL20 RS-232 port using the
Tape Loader Cable (Catalog No. 2706-NC3) as shown.

If you are using a keyboard (Catalog No. 2706-NK1 or -NK2), plug the
keyboard into the rear of the DL20. No other connections are required.

If you are using an Allen-Bradley Industrial Terminal (T1 through T4), use
cable (Catalog No. 2706-NC5). This cable connects to the DATA
TERMINAL INTERFACE connector on the data recorder and Port B on the
industrial terminal.

If you are using another type of dumb terminal, you must construct your own
cable.
