Applicator Interface Connector Pin Configuration
The Applicator Interface Assembly is available in two versions: a +5 V I/O and a
+24–28 V I/O. Table 20 lists the pin configurations and functions of the applicator interface
connector for both +5 V and +24–28 V operation.

Pin
No.
Signal Name Signal Type Description
1 I/O SIGNAL
GROUND
(+5V Return)
I/O Signal
Ground
Using jumper J5, this pin can be configured as isolated or
non-isolated from the print engine signal ground. See
Jumper Configurations and Pinouts for +5 V I/O
Operation on page 143 for more information.
1 I/O SIGNAL
GROUND
(+24-28V Return)
I/O Signal
Ground
No jumpers to configure.
Important • Customer must provide this external
ground. (This ground can come from pin 8) See
Pinouts for +24-28 V I/O Operation on page 144
for more information.
2+5V I/O
(Fused at 1 A)
Caution • Replace
the fuse only with
one of the same
type and rating.
Power See Figure 41 on page 145 for fuse location.
Using jumper J4, this pin can be configured as isolated or
non-isolated from the Applicator Interface Circuit +5 V
Supply. See Jumper Configurations and Pinouts for +5 V
I/O Operation on page 143 for more information.
2 +24-28V I/O Power No jumpers to configure. This +24-28V power source
also supplies voltage for output signal pull-up resistors.
Important • Customer must provide this external
power. (This power can come from pin 7) See
Pinouts for +24-28 V I/O Operation on page 144
for more information.
3 START PRINT Input See Applicator Signals on page 138 for more information
about the start and end print signals.
• Pulse Mode—The label printing process begins on the
HIGH to LOW transition of this signal if a format is
ready. Deassert this signal HIGH to inhibit printing of
a new label.
• Level Mode—Assert LOW to enable the print engine
to print if a label format is ready. When deasserted
HIGH, the print engine completes the label that is
printing then stops and waits for this input to be
reasserted LOW.
4 FEED Input When the print engine is idle or has been paused, assert
this input LOW to trigger repeated feeding of blank
labels. Deassert HIGH to stop feeding blank labels and
register to the top of the next label.
