a,b,c[,dddddd]
Initial value
Nil
Valid range and
term of
command
When the power switch is OFF
The set parameter is not maintained.
Valid range within item
The parameter preset will be invalid.
Valid range between item
The parameter preset will be invalid.
[Function]
Specify input/output of the designated pin number of the external signal.
[Format]
<IO>a,b,c[,dddddd]
●Parameter
a[Input or output] = 0 : Input
1 : Output
b[Pin number] = Valid range : 1 ～ 25
c[Input/Output level] = 0 : Low
1 : High
d[Timeout for input] = Valid range : 0 ～ 999999(1=5ms) (Omissible)
* When it is [Input], this parameter is the input timeout time.
When this parameter is omitted, the printer does not proceed to the next command analysis until the next input from the
designated port.
[Output time] = Valid range : 0 ～ 999999(1=5ms) (Omissible)
* When it is [Output], this parameter is the output time.
The signal level will be returned to the status before this command after the specified time has been passed when this
parameter is specified.
The signal will be output continuously at the specified level when this parameter is omitted.
[Coding Example 1] Wait until HIGH level is input from the EXT20 pin (with 5 second timeout)
<A>
<IO>0,20,1,1000
<Z>
[Coding Example 2] Output LOW level for 5 seconds to the EXT17 pin (before this command the signal is HIGH level)
<A>
<IO>1,17,0,1000
<Z>
[Notes]
1. Set the external signal output for "DISABLE" in the advanced mode when using this external signal input/output
command <IO>.
When it is set to "ENABLE", the signal changes regardless with this command because the signal is output on the
printer.
2. The timing of signal output is not related the print operation of the printer but when this command is processed.
3. Refer to the input or output for the below table.
4. There may be about 5msec margin of error in the specified output time and the actual signal output time.
5. When the output level and the current output level is the same, the output level will not be changed even the specified
output time has passed.
