Figure 14-5 Connection Configuration Scheme for Printers
If the OP is connected to the PLC through a TTY or RS232 interface, a
Y cable is required for simultaneous operation of a printer. The PLC and
printer, in this case, are operated with physically different interfaces.
For attaching Siemens printers, there are standard cables available (refer to
Catalog No. ST80.1). For other printers, you have to use the cables supplied
or specially manufactured ones.
You will find the pin assignments of the plug connectors in appendix D of
this manual.
The OP makes the following print functions available:
hardcopy
printout of screens
printout of alarm or event buffer
direct message logging
printout on buffer overload
printout of data records
printout of recipe directory
