Installing the Optional Slip Printer
TEMPERATURE PROBE WIRE DESCRIPTION
To ensure the best operating systems available, Veeder-Root
REQUIRES
the use of shielded cable (P/N
848100-250) when wiring a Temperature Probe (maximum length 25 feet [7.6 m]). In these installations, shielded
cable must be rated less than 100 picofarad per foot and be manufactured with a material suitable for the
environment, such as Belden™ 83552 or equivalent.
Installing the Optional Slip Printer
The Epson TM-295 dot matrix slip printer is attached with self-adhesive Velcro strips to a customer supplied
mounting plate or printer stand located somewhere in the truck’s cab.
A power/data cable and three 2” x 3” (50 x 75 mm) Velcro strips are included in the printer kit. Figure 31 shows
the front panel lights and controls, and the rear panel connections to the TM-295 Slip printer and illustrates the
TM-295 printer’s address code setup for DIP switch 3
(which must be set as shown or it will not work)
and
suggested positions for the Velcro strips. Remove the rubber feet from the base of the printer to permit maximum
contact between the Velcro strips and the mounting plate.
Attach the four wires of the printer power/data cable to the appropriate terminals of the Power Side terminal block
in the IB (Figure 22 on page 29) and the DB-25 connector and the round power connector to the appropriate
connectors on the rear of the printer
.

required to release the carriage and install/remove a printer ribbon.
