Datamax A-4310 Programmer's Manual page 248

The Applicator Start of Print Circuit will depend upon the applicator system's requirements:
•
For applicator interface circuitry that will use the
printer's +5 VDC, follow the schematic shown right.
•
For applicator interface circuitry that will supply an
external +5 VDC and ground, remove JMP 7 and JMP 8
from the Applicator Interface Card and follow the
schematic shown right.
The Auxiliary Port (J1) is an RS-232 interface. Serial data transfer settings (such as baud rate, word
length, and parity) can be made using <STX>KcSP commands. These settings must match the device that
you are connecting. Jumpers JMP 1 – JMP 4 should be in installed.
Indicators: The Green and Yellow LEDs provide a visual indication of printer/applicator signal activity:
•
Flash at power-up and when the card's outputs change state.
