Setup and Operation
The GPIO card has the following menu configurable features and can be tailored to your
application.
GPIO PORT
Controls the optional Applicator Interface Card’s GPIO function, where:
GPIO DEVICE Sets the option to work with a specific device type, where:
DISABLED Disables the option.
APPLICATOR
Enables parameters for related label applicator functions:
• Completion upon last SOP, de-asserts Data Ready (DRDY);
• FEED allowed at any time; and,
• DRDY upon PAUSE.
APPLICATOR2
Enables parameters for alternate label applicator functions:
• Completion upon 1 msec. overlap of Data Ready (DRDY) and End of Print
(EOP);
• DRDY signal end inhibits FEED; and,
• De-asserts DRDY upon PAUSE or FAULT.
BARCODE
VERIFIER
Enables the GPIO Port to work with a bar code verifier.
START OF PRINT Selects the type of input signal required to initiate Start of Print (SOP), where:
LOW PULSE Triggers printing with a low pulse.
HIGH PULSE Triggers printing with a high pulse.
ACTIVE LOW Triggers printing with a low signal.
ACTIVE HIGH Triggers printing with a high signal.
EDGE Triggers printing with a signal edge transition.
END OF PRINT Sets the type of output signal generated to indicate End of Print (EOP), where:
LOW PULSE Outputs a low pulse upon completion.
HIGH PULSE Outputs a high pulse upon completion.
ACTIVE LOW Outputs a logic low upon completion.
ACTIVE HIGH Outputs a logic high upon completion.
RIBBON LOW Sets the type of output signal generated to indicate Ribbon Low condition where:
ACTIVE LOW Outputs a logic low upon condition.
ACTIVE HIGH Outputs a logic high upon condition..
SLEW ENABLE Selects the type of input signal required to initiate label slew, where:
STANDARD Triggers slew with a low signal.
LOW PULSE Triggers slew with a low pulse.
HIGH PULSE Triggers slew with a high pulse.
ACTIVE LOW Triggers slew with a low signal.
ACTIVE HIGH Triggers slew with a high signal.
Err On Pause
(App2)
Sets the output when a service required fault occurs (Applicator Interface Card
Type 2 equipped only), where:
ENABLED Enables the output signal.
DISABLED Disables the output signal.
