12-44 Terminal Connections
Connecting a Computer or
Printer to the Terminal
Most of the PanelView terminals have an RS-232 serial port to:
• download/upload applications over a serial link
• and/or connect a printer that supports the IBM enhanced
character set
PanelView terminals that don’t have an additional RS-232 Printer Port
include the 300 Micro, the 300 (except for DeviceNet), and the -xxA2/
-xxA5 versions of the 550/600 and 900 monochrome terminals.
The illustration below shows how to make these connections.
Communication parameters for the RS-232 port are set on the Printer
Setup screen of the Configuration Mode menu.
