Installing the SureMark printers
Installing for RS-232/RS-485 communication
1. Power the system off and disconnect the RS-232 power supply.
2. Locate the rear cable connectors.
3. If you are using the RS-232 communication port:
a. For all models except TI8, check the settings on the RS-232 mode switch,
which is near the rear cable connections. (See Figure 5 for thermal/impact
printers. See Figure 6 on page 19 and Figure 7 on page 19 for
single-station printers.) See “RS-232 communication mode selections — all
models except TI8” on page 29 for information on switch settings. For
Model TI8, see “RS-232 communication mode selections — Model TI8” on
page 32.
Notes:
1) If the RS-232 communication cable has only 3 wires or if the system
output is 3 pins (2 signals and a ground), you must use XON/XOFF
mode.
2) Model TI8 does not have a mode switch for RS-232 settings.
b. Connect the power supply to the printer.
4. Connect the RS-485 or RS-232 communication cable to the correct port.
