Intermec EasyCoder 201 II – Technical Manual
Connector configuration
The connector is the standard female 36-pole Centronics type. The
mounting holes are connected to chassis ground.
Note:
The PE signal (Paper End) on pin 12 requires an error-trapping
routine to be included in the Intermec Fingerprint software, activat-
ing the BUSY and READY statements. Here is an example on how
such a routine may be written:
10 IF (PRSTAT AND 4) THEN GOSUB 1000
20 IF (PRSTAT AND 4) = 0 THEN GOSUB 2000
. . . .
. . . .
. . . .
1000 BUSY4
1010 RETURN
2000 READY4
2010 RETURN
Also see BUSY and READY statements and PRSTAT function in the
Intermec Fingerprint manuals.
