UBI EasyCoder 501 – Technical Manual
INSTALLATION, cont'd.
As standard, all EasyCoder 501 printer models are fitted with one
communication port for RS 232C on their rear plates. Optionally,
this communication port can be reconfigured for either RS 422 or
20 mA Current Loop after additional circuits have been fitted on the
CPU board, see chapter “Interfaces”.
EasyPak 501 and EasyPak 501 E printers also have a parallel
Centronics communication port.
EasyCoder 501 SA and EasyPak 501 SA printers do not have to be
connected to a computer, even if the EasyPak 501 SA is prepared
for connection to a PC in order to use the UBI LabelShop program
for label editing.
If there are other communication ports, or if you have ordered a non-
standard printer, refer to the chapter “Interfaces” for information
on how to connect the printer.
With the exception of EasyPak kits and the UBI Macintosh Driver,
no communication cable is provided unless ordered separately.
Refer to the chapter “Interfaces” for cable configuration descrip-
tions.
Refer to the manual of the host computer or terminal for information
on how to connect the other end of the communication cable.
Computer Connection
Hints:
• For UBI LabelShop, UBI Direct Protocol, or UBI Fingerprint programming,
use the "uart1:" serial RS 232C communication channel.
• For UBI Windows Driver, use the "centronics:" parallel communication
channel.
• For the UBI Macintosh Driver, use the "uart1:" serial communication
channel. A special cable with gender changer is included in the driver kit.
• UBI's standard communication cables and adapters makes it possible to
connect the printer directly to the serial or parallel port of an IBM AT, XT or
PS-2 personal computer, or the serial port of an Apple Macintosh computer.
