Connect to a printer
The display is capable of printing screen contents to a
portable, thermal dot matrix printer that uses paper rolls.
Printers that are designed to be powered by the vehicle
battery or by a portable battery pack simplify installation
and are ideal.
NOTE: The A630, A631, and A632 series printers from
Axiohm are shown in these examples. Visit www.ax-
iohm.biz for more information.
Large combines use a unique implementation for sup-
porting a printer. The Axiohm A630 printer is powered
and connected to the RS-232 port via the diagnostic con-
nector on the right hand control module (1). Kit 84095875
includes the printer (2), printer cable (3), and mount-
ing hardware (4) for this implementation. This kit, with
supporting software, allows the display to communicate
directly with the printer via the Controller Area Network
(CAN).
Other vehicles require a different implementation. An
adapter harness is required to connect the serial (
RS-232) port on the AFS Pro 700 display to the printer.
The adapter harness separates ports A and B on the main
connection to the display. For display-ready vehicles (an
existing display harness connector is in the cab), use
adapter harness 87732647. For all other vehicles, use
adapter harness 87735690.
With this harness installed, Com-A (communication port
A) is the RS-232 port that is integrated into the main con-
nector harness on the back of the display—the 26-pin con-
nector.
