The Centronics Line Driver Set #20001 permits unidirectional
communication with a peripheral having a parallel interface over
a distance of up to 1000 meters. The line driver also provides
galvanic isolation up to 500 volts between the connected
devices.

The line driver consists of two individual converters which must
be powered by the power supplies included in the scope of
delivery:
RS422
PC

Printer Side
The computer-side interface converts the parallel data into
serial RS422 format, whereas the printer-side converts the data
back into parallel format.
Pressing the „Reset“ key on the keyboard of the computer-side
device while running resets that device.
