Part No. 1-960343-02
The Industrial Interface Board adds one serial communication port
("uart3") and one connector with four IN and four OUT ports to the
standard serial communication port ("uart1:").
The IN/OUT ports provide an interface between the printer and
various types of external equipment, such as gates, conveyor belts,
wrappers etc. The input and output signals can be read or initiated
by means of Intermec Fingerprint instructions. Thereby the printer
can be used to control the external devices – or be controlled by
them – according to the program.
The printer'sfirmware detects when an Industrial Interface Board is
installed and adds communication and buffer setup options for the
communication port "uart3:".
When an Industrial Interface Board is fitted, the following types of
interfaces become available:
"uart1:"
RS 232C
