Fig.2-3 Pin Assignment of Serial Interface
The baud rate and data structure in serial interface mode is 9600bps, 8-bit
data bits, no parity bit and 1 stop bit.
The serial interface of SP-POS88
Ⅳ
can be connected to standard
RS-232CRS-232C interface. When it is connected to IBM PC or its
compatible machine, connection can accord to Fig.2-4.
