The C82305
or C82306
serial interface card
To use the C82305
or C82306
serial interface card, see the
sections below to set the correct baud rate, handshake timing, and
error handling. For all other data transfer conventions, such as
word structure and communications protocol, see the C82305
or
C82306
interface card manual.
Selecting a baud rate
You can select from the following baud rates: 300, 600, 1200, 2400,
4800, 9600, and 19200 bps (bits per second). To set the baud rate,
see the bit-rate selection table in the C82305
or C82306
interface
card manual.
Handshake timing
When the unused area for data in the input buffer drops to 256
bytes, the printer outputs an X-OFF code or sets the DTR flag to 1
(MARK) to indicate that it cannot receive data. When the unused
area increases to 512 bytes, the printer outputs an X-ON code or
sets the DTR flag to 0 (SPACE) to indicate that it is ready to receive
data.
