DM-D500 Installation Guide 29
English
DIP switch 2
(*1) The “Y-connection enable” is set when a TM printer with no modular jack for the DM-D is
connected with this product, using one COM port to connect both TM printer and DM
display. In this case, an optional DM-D stand (DP-501) and a connecting cable are required.
In cases other than above, choose “Y-connection disabled” (default setting).
(*2) This function can select whether or not you perform self test when turning on the power.
See “Self Test” for details.
(*3) When selecting “20 column and 2 line mode,” this product can be used like the
DM-D105/106/205/206. In this case, the graphic display and the original functions for the
DM-D500 cannot be used; however, by selecting “256 × 64 dots mode,” they can be used.
(*4) When setting to “Printer is selected,” data is sent to the TM printer, but is not displayed on
the display. When setting to “Display is selected,” data is displayed on the display but is not
output from the TM printer. The selection can be changed using the <ESC=> command.
(*5) Stays at OFF setting.
Note:
❏ The changes in DIP switch settings are effective when the power is
turned on again.
❏ The data transmission setting, such as data length and transmission
speed, must be the same on both your computer and printer.
