Connecting A

Printer

You can connect a serial-data printer for SMDA records. You can

connect the printer to any serial data port on the DXP, but serial data

port two is defaulted for a printer. If your printer is not near the DXP,

~ you must put one modular jack on the wall next to the DXP and

another next to the printer. Wire these two together with 24-gauge,

shielded wire, making sure to rotate the wires. The printer only

requires the transmit data and signal ground wires. The handshaking

connection usually isn’t necessary unless you are running at more than

2400 baud. Check your printer manual for printer baud rate

information. You’ll have to provide your own

25pin

connector for the

printer.
