No data transmission
3.3.4 Internal thermal printer
These settings are only available on Titroprocessor models 2.726.0020 and
2.726.0120.
The built-in printer can be used as well as an external printer connected to
an RS232 interface.
Internal printer

allows the use of the automatic page feed in
report definitions. If Metrohm thermal paper (Order
no. 6.2237.040) is used the perforation is
automatically skipped during printout.
3.3.5 Initializing the RS232 interfaces
If problems occur during data transmission or data reception via the RS232
interfaces it may be necessary to initialize the affected interface again. This
can be carried out by pressing the softkeys [Reset RS232 1] or
[Reset RS232 2]
.
During initialization of an RS232 interface the reception buffer and the output
buffer of the RS232 interface are cleared and the transmission parameters
newly set.
The Titroprocessor 726 interfaces are set to a time out period (time out) of
30 seconds, i.e. if data are to be transmitted to an external instrument then a
connection must be made to this instrument within 30 seconds, otherwise a
connection problem is assumed and a corresponding error message
displayed.
If this occurs with a printer then first check whether it has been correctly
connected and is switched 'online'.
