6.7.37. Function 47 - Printer set-up
This function tells the system how to transmit data to a connected printer and which port to
use for the transmission.
Press: <4>+<7>+<ENT>
Choose the port number.
Here the port number is entered followed by <ENT>
0 = Disconnecting printer port
1 = RS-232/1
2 = RS-232/2
Now the system asks for the baud rate:
The system will suggest the value already stored. This value can be either approved by
<ENT> or it can be overwritten by the baud rate required according to the following table:
75 110 134 150 300 600 1200 1800 2000 2400 4800 9600
The system will only accept a value from the above table.
When the baud rate has been entered in the system, the system will prompt the operator to
enter a control word.
The control word, which is an integral number from 1 to 12, will inform the system of the
format in which data is to be transmitted to the printer.
The format is chosen from the following table:
1 =
7 data bits
1 stop bit
no parity
2 =
7 data bits
1 stop bit
even parity
3 =
7 data bits
1 stop bit
odd parity
4 =
7 data bits
2 stop bits
no parity
5 =
7 data bits
2 stop bits
even parity
6 =
7 data bits
2 stop bits
odd parity
7 =
8 data bits
1 stop bit
no parity
8 =
8 data bits
1 stop bit
even parity
9 =
8 data bits
1 stop bit
odd parity
10 =
8 data bits
2 stop bits
no parity
11 =
8 data bits
2 stop bits
even parity
12 =
8 data bits
2 stop bits
odd parity
It is not possible to set the system to transmit at any other rates or formats.
Default set-up for CITIZEN printer model: iDP562-R5L
2400 Baud rate
Control Word 7 (8 bit - 1 stop bit - no parity)
