RS-232 Integration

You can integrate the VGA Printer device with control equipment

that uses an RS-232 interface. You can use this RS-232 interface to

trigger the VGA Printer device to print the current captured

image by sending a PRINT command over the RS-232 connection.

The PRINT command must be terminated with an LF (ASCII code

10).
Connect your control equipment to the VGA Printer using a

standard RS-232 null-modem cable. (such as Belkin Serial File

Transfer cable part number F3X171-10). You must use an RS-232

serial adapter to connect the RS-232 null-modem cable to one of

the VGA Printer USB ports.
The VGA Printer package does not include an RS-232 serial

adapter but you can purchase one from Epiphan as an optional

accessory.
Use the following serial port configuration for the RS-232

connection:

Speed

19200 bps
