Page 23: Installation
Chapter 2 Installation Installation This chapter describes the UB‐R03 installation. The UB‐R03 is an interface board on which is installed the Radio Frequency module for Epson TM printers. The Radio Frequency module is installed on the UB‐R03 at the factory. To set up the printer, install the UB‐R03 in the Epson TM printer and initialize the UB‐R03 to return it to its default setting. Set the PC to be able to communicate with the UB‐R03. Then change the setting of the UB‐R03 using the setting PC. The UB‐R03 can be set by using the dedicated utility TMNet WinConfig. Installation Precautions Cautions and Note • Before installing, disconnect the Power Unit from the TM Printer (as well as turning the power switch off). WARNING Even when the power switch is off, voltage is still present at some points on the circuit board. Changing components while the Power Unit is connected can cause damage to the UB‐R03 and the printer. • A grounded wrist strap should be worn during installation to avoid ... -

Page 26: How To Set The Ub-R03
How to Set the UB-R03 There are two ways to set the UB‐R03. • Setting with the USB connection Connect the computer to the USB connector (Parameter Setting) of the TM printer with the USB cable. This setting is possible without connecting to the network. Moreover, you can check the wireless LAN setting at any time, and if you make a mistake in the setting, you can correct it easily. This setting is recommended. • Setting with the wireless LAN connection Prepare the setting computer for wireless LAN and set it with the wireless LAN. If a setting that cannot be communicated in the wireless LAN environment of the computer is set, the connection is cut while setting and you cannot check the setting. Also the wrong setting can prevent communication. When you set up the access point at the same time, set the access point in advance and check that the UB-R03 operates correctly.

Chapter 4 Programming Programming Samples This chapter describes the information for the programming of a TM printer that is set up for the wireless LAN system. • Method of printing to the UB-R03 • Direct printing by PORT9100 • Monitoring of the ASB status • More than one connection demands Method of Printing to the UB-R03 The UB‐R03 is equipped with lpr protocols as general print protocols. It is easy to print by using lpr or ftp protocols because the printing is also supported by the operating system. However, the command statuses sent by the printer are ignored because the printing by lpr or ftp applies only to output of the printer. -

Page 76: Monitoring Of The Asb Status
Monitoring of the ASB status The ASB status function of the printer is used for the UB‐R03 to check the state of the printer. Therefore, when the transmission data from the application includes the command to nullify the ASB status function, the UB‐R03 cannot control the state of the printer. Take care not to transmit the command to nullify the ASB status function to check the state of the printer correctly by the UB‐R03. Or retransmit the command that makes the ASB status function effective again. More than one connection demands The UB‐R03 accepts up to six connection demands from LPR/Port9100. However, the TM printer can print only the first accepted connection. Other connection demands enter the standby status until the connection being printing is closed. When more than one connection is demanded and the host printer leaves the connection open after printing is complete, or the connection is cut without being closed because of some error, other connecting demands are not processed until the time‐out of connection. Close the connection at once after finishing printing by an application. The time-out of connection can be set with TMNet WebConfig. (Software version 2.10 or later) The default value is 5 minutes. -

Page 82: System Bootup Time
System Bootup Time The UB‐R03 requires some bootup time for initializing the system or network functions after power‐on or system reset. The required bootup time is as follows. The network communication functions are unavailable during system bootup. When setting the IP address in the Manual mode : Approximately 6 to 10 seconds When setting the IP address automatically : Approximately 13 to 17 seconds (Above values may vary, depending on the response time of the DHCP server.) -

Appendix Exchange from the Confirm the setting of the wireless LAN interface (UB-R02) Confirm the shifting data after printing the parameter sheet of the printer. The method of printing of the parameter sheet of the UB-R02 is as follows. Power on the TM Printer, and after waiting 5 to 6 seconds, hold down the push button of the UB- R02 for more than 3 seconds by using a clip or penpoint. -

Exchanging of the wireless LAN interface Uninstall the UB-R02 from the printer and install the UB-R03 in the printer. Refer to Chapter 2. Setting of the wireless LAN interface (UR-R03) Set the wireless LAN interface (UB-R03) printer. Setting the UB-R03 Set the network setting of the UB-R03 referring to Chapter 2.
