The connector is standard female 36-pin Centronics type. The
mounting holes are connected to chassis ground.
Note:
The PE signal (Paper End) on pin 12 requires an error-trapping
routine to be included in the Intermec Fingerprint software, acti-
vating the BUSY and READY statements. Here is an example on
how such a routine may be written:
10 IF (PRSTAT AND 4) THEN GOSUB 1000
20 IF (PRSTAT AND 4) = 0 THEN GOSUB 2000
. . . .
. . . .
. . . .
1000 BUSY4
1010 RETURN
2000 READY4
2010 RETURN
Also see BUSY and READY statements and PRSTAT function in
the Intermec Fingerprint v6.14, Reference Manual.
