PS/2 Keyboard I/F (FM4602 and FM4603 models only)

The special keyboard interface connector is available on the FM4602/FM4603 models.
This is for PS/2 keyboard or barcode reader with keyboard wedge. When this interface is
used, using the Centronics or RS-232 communication ports is discouraged. Use of the
PS/2 keyboard interface may only be operated in stand-alone mode.

The printer can automatically detect the keyboard. But if you use a barcode reader you
should set switches 6, 7 and 8 to the ON positions.

Before a keyboard or a barcode reader is connected make sure that the printer is set for
the following configuration.

-

Make sure that the printer has the PPLB emulation installed.

-

Make the desired form is download to the printer.

-

Make sure that a PS/2 keyboard or barcode reader with KB wedge is available.

(Refer to the Appendix for Stand-Alone Operation for further information.)
