Connecting the Brother Copyboard to the computer
Follow the instructions below to hook up the CopyPoint PC Link Cable.
1) Position your Brother Copyboard near your personal computer CPU
(maximum distance of approximately 5-6 feet).
2) Make sure the power to both machines is switched off.
3) Remove the black cover on the PC I/F terminal at the left side of your
Brother Copyboard. Connect the RJ-8 connector of the CopyPoint PC Link
Cable in the jack.
4) Connect the 25-pin female RS-232 connector of the Cable to your PC in
an available male serial communications port. Use the 9-pin adapter if
your PC requires it. (See your PC owner's manual for the correct interface
port for connection.) NOTE: If your PC is an IBM Aptiva, an MWAVE
card is using COM1. You must connect the CopyPoint PC Link Cable
to another COM serial port that is available.
