Appendix S : Vsi-Pro Max Jumper Settings - AVE VSI-Pro Max Operation Manual

APPENDIX S
The VSI-Pro Max has several internal jumpers to allow the user to configure the device for many special configurations
for operation and interfacing. Some examples to use CTS for Hardware handshaking rather than output formatted
ASCII text. You may also use the internal RS-232 Opto Isolator if there is noise in the video or problem communicat-
ing with devices which have poor or incorrect grounding or isolation. External DSR or DTR can be configured for
pullups or not via removing jumpers. If you have any questions on these jumpers call the factory for detailed explana-
tions.
See the adjacent pages for detailed steps to remove the cover of the VSI-Pro Max to access the internal jumpers.
Make a note in this manual if you do change any so you can refer to them later.
See independent sections for complete description of jumper settings relating to its particular function. All Factory
Control Jumpers should not be changed for are only used for factory testing and configuration.

JP20 & JP21 ON 1-2 RS-232C
ON 2-3 Opto Isolated RS-232
NOTE: Must remove JP14 and use Pin 5 for iso-
lated ground when using Opto Isolated RS-232
input. If using TXD or other input/output signals
simulatenously, must remove JP6 and put JP18
ON and use Pin 9 for signal ground reference.

Opto Isolated RXD Pin 2 Register Input
The default setting of the VSI-Pro Max has no Opto Isolation on RXD configured and referenced to power/signal ground.
To configure RXD for Opto Isolation with isolated ground set the following; JP21 2-3, JP20 2-3, JP14 OFF, JP18 ON and
JP6 OFF both. Now RXD Pin 2 and Ground Pin 5 are Opto Isolated. Therefore no ground connection from the POS/Cash
Register to the VSI-Pro Max is made and isolated. TXD Pin 3 or Pin 8 and all other handshaking signals remain the same
and the signal ground is now available on Pin 9. Alarm 2 Hard Output is no longer available.
UART PCB Installation & Configuration
This PCB must be installed at the factory for VSI-Pro Max PCB F6 or lower due to internal modification required. On this
version the "Register Data LED" will be disabled. For VSI-Pro Max PCB F7 or higher the user can install this PCB by just
plugging into the J4 connector and the "Register Data LED" will not be disabled. Jumper Settings; JP1 OFF, JP3 OFF,
JP4 OFF, JP5 ON, JP11 ON. RTS Alarm Input or Handshaking is not available when using the UART PCB.
