characteristics:
It is a split cable with three connectors.
A blue PS2 male connector connects to the SafeCom Controller’s serial
port.
A black PS2 female connector connects to the SafeCom serial cable
supplied with your SafeCom Color Front-end or to the cable attached to
your stand-alone SafeCom Card Reader.
An MFP specific FIH (Foreign Harness Interface) connector. Some MFP
vendors also refer to this as the Click Counter Interface. To access the
MFP’s FIH connector you may need to get inside the MFP. Under any
circumstances you are encouraged to seek advice and instructions from
your MFP vendor, as this information is not always available via their
public web site.
Depending on the MFP it may also be necessary to make some specific setup via
the MFP’s control panel or use special software to activate the use of Copy
