The PTC-960RL is able to communicate with other
PTCs, computers, and external accessories such as
printers. It can both send and receive data and
instructions. Communication is controlled by your
organization’s application program. See the manual or

connected to the host computer. Accessories such as
printers are connected to the PTC with a cable.
