Controller-Printer Wiring

A printer can be connected directly to the GC Controller at either the Controller's parallel printer port
or one of the Controller's serial ports. The type and scheduling of reports produced at the GC
Controller printer are then determined by settings made in MON2000, the GC control software run
from a PC (from "Reports" Submenu, select "GC Report Request" and/or "GC Printer Control").
Only a generic printer driver is used at the GC Controller. Better control of printer output is
available to the printer at the GC-connected PC rather than at the GC Controller.
Note, too, that a printer connected to the GC Controller should not be operated in a hazardous
environment.
SERIOUS PERSONAL INJURY OR DEATH POSSIBLE
Do not operate a standard, off-the-shelf printer in a hazardous environment.
Failure to observe all safety precautions could result in serious injury or death.
Two sets of instructions are provided in this section, one for connecting a printer to the Controller's
parallel printer port and one for connecting a printer to one of the Controller's serial ports.
To connect a printer to the Controller's parallel printer port, follow these steps:
(1) Access the GC Controller's Terminal Board for Field Wiring (TB) ( See drawing DE-20782).
