Description
The Industrial Interface Board is an optional device for EasyCoder
F2, F4, 501 XP, and 601 XP, that provides these printers with two
extra interfaces.
Industrial Interface
This interface contains 8 digital IN and digital 8 OUT ports with
opto-couplers, plus 4 OUT ports with relays.
The status of all ports can be read by means of PORTIN functions
and the OUT ports can be set be means of PORTOUT ON/OFF
statements (see Intermec Fingerprint 7.xx Reference Manual).
Thus, it is possible to design Intermec Fingerprint programs which
control not only the printer but also various external devices in e.g.
a production line. The digital IN ports can read the status of various
sensors and the program can e.g. switch control lamps on or off,
open or close gates, and start or stop conveyor belts accordingly by
means of the relays and the digital OUT ports.
Serial Interface
This interface contains one serial communication channel ("uart2:")
for one of the following alternatives:
• RS 232C
• RS 422 non isolated
• RS 422 isolated
• RS 485 terminated or not terminated.
Selection of type of serial interface is done by fitting various types
of socket-mounted driver circuits and straps.
The Industrial Interface Board Kit contains:
• One Industrial Interface Board fitted for either RS 232C, RS 422
non isolated, RS 422 isolated, or RS 485.
• One flat cable
• One Installation Instruction booklet
