Part 10


The USB interface model of PD-2601 / 2602 / 2603 should be connected
directly to an USB port and must not be through any non-self-powered USB
HUB
to get power through the USB port itself and there is no need for other
special arrangement.

DRIVER INSTALLATION

For application software to use RS232 interfaced PD-260X, there is no direct
need for any driver. The OPOS (OLE POS) driver or the JPOS (Java POS)
driver would be required for OPOS or JPOS programs and the PD-260X would
have to be set to “Epson” command mode. These drivers are available from
our

web

page:

http://www.posiflex.com.tw/Download%20list.asp?Status=1&Series_Name=U
POS&Model_Name=OPOS and execute the file “SETUP.EXE” to install the
OPOS Control Manager. To add the customer display under OPOS control
please set in OPOS Control Manager device name “PD2x-Line Display” in the
top row. For RS-232 models, select the COM port in the 3

rd

row and set baud

rate to “9600” in 4

th

row as in the left sample screen below. Select “USB” in

3

rd

row for USB interface models as in the right sample picture below.


For USB interfaced PD-260X, please visit our web site and find the driver
from the class “PD23_26U”. The guidance for each function call in the library
“USBPD.dll” is covered in the “ReadMe” file in that class.
