2.2 Remote Printer Connections (ACS Mode)
The LCD-80 supports the PRN Remote Printer. This printer provides
a hard-copy printout of status changes within the system and time-
stamps the printout with the current time-of-day and date. The PRN
provides 80 columns of data on standard 9" by 11" tractor-feed paper.
Observe the following requirements when connecting a remote
printer:
• Power-limited but not supervised.
• 50 feet maximum wire length (typical) from the LCD-80 to
printer. Wiring distance limited by cable capacitance (see
EIA-232 standard).
• Only one printer supported per LCD-80.
• Use twisted shielded pair cable suitable for EIA-232
applications.
• This interface is intended for use with UL listed printers, such as
the PRN, that do not connect the EIA-232 Reference line to
chassis ground. This is required to avoid creating an earth-fault
condition.
• All EIA-232 circuit wiring to remain in same room as the
LCD-80.
