2.2 PL1200 Hardware Description
This section will describe the PL1200 docking station and labeling unit in detail to help you
become familiar with the PL1200 system.
2.3 Docking Station
The two major components of the PL1200 labeling system are the dockin
g station and the
labeling unit. The docking station is designed to be mounted to the host machine.
All power and communications with the labeling unit are provided through the docking station
mounted within the BP3100/BP3500. For more information on the BP3100/BP3500 system,
please refer to the BP3100/BP3500 manual. The docking station consists of the docking plate and
the docking plate PCB as shown in diagram 2.3a below
The docking plate has a notched edge along the top and a groove down the front with an
alignment bushing at the base as shown in diagram 2.3b. These features enable the user to
remove and return the labeling unit to the docking plate as often as needed without
compromising the precision with which the labels are dispensed.
