Setting The Rotary Switch - Intermec EasyCoder 4630 User Manual

4630 and 4830 Coax/Twinax Interface Card User's Manual
The interface card is designed to use generic protocol with the
Intermec 4630 or 4830 printer. In Generic mode, the interface card
does not pass on the LPI and CPI host commands to the printer.

Setting the Rotary Switch

The interface card has a rotary switch that is accessed from the back
panel of the printer. The switch has the following settings:
Positions 0 to 6 Reserved for the twinax cable address. In Coax mode,
these switch positions are not defined and function as if the switch is
set to position A.
Position 7 Performs a self-test of the interface card, prints a label with
the self-test results, and then goes online with the host. This setting
takes effect the next time the printer is turned on.
Position 8 Restores the default settings of the interface card and then
prints a label showing the default values. This setting takes effect the
next time the printer is turned on.
Position 9 Activates Buffer Hex Dump mode. In this mode, data
received by the printer is printed as ASCII control characters and in
hexadecimal notation. This mode stays active until another switch
position is selected (position A is recommended).
Note: To print labels in Buffer Hex Dump mode, the printer must be in Data
Line Print mode .
Position A Provides normal operation of the interface card using the
settings that are stored in saved memory.
Positions B and C Reserved for future use.
Position D Activates a configuration mode where data cannot be sent
to the printer. Use this selection to configure the interface card without
printing labels.
Position E Reserved for Twinax Diagnostics mode and does not
function in Coax mode.
Position F Activates a coax diagnostic fast loopback test. This test is
designed for use with an oscilloscope to evaluate board performance.
Disconnect the coax host cable from the coax interface adapter before
turning on the printer to run this test.
