Edition 2, January 2001
Part No. 1-960472-01
Description
The Double Serial Interface Board is an optional device for
EasyCoder 501 XP, EasyCoder 601 XP, EasyCoder F2, and
EasyCoder F4, that provides the printer with two extra inter-
faces, "uart2:" and "uart3:". The printer must be fi tted with the
Intermec Fingerprint v7.xx fi rmware.
This interface can be fi tted with straps and circuits for one of
the following alternatives:
RS-232
RS-422 non isolated
RS-422 isolated
RS-485
This interface can be fi tted with straps and circuits for one of
the following alternatives:
RS-232
RS-422 non isolated
20 mA Current Loop
The Double Serial Interface Kit contains:
One interface board tted for RS-232 on both interfaces.
One cover plate (for EasyCoder XP-series printers only.)
One at cable (for EasyCoder F-series printers only.)
This Installation Instruction booklet.
Circuits for RS-422 non-isolated, RS-422 isolated, RS-485,
and 20 mA current loop can be bought separately from Inter-
mec.

Switch off the power and disconnect the power cord.
Warning!
The electronics compartment contains high voltage com-
ponents and wires. Do not open the electronics compart-
ment before the printer is safely disconnected from any AC
supply.
Open the right-hand door.
Remove the four #T10 Torx screws along the lower edge of
the cover over the electronics compartment.
Remove the four #T10 Torx screws that hold the upper edge
of the same cover.
Remove the cover and put it aside on a soft cloth or similar
to avoid scratches.
Remove the four #T10 Torx screws that hold the interface
cover plate above the parallel interface connector on the
printers rear plate. Remove the cover plate.
Save the cover plate for possible later use. Keep the
screws.

If necessary, t or remove circuits and straps to adapt the
Double Serial Interface Board for the desired type of serial
interface as described in Chapter 3 and 4.
Insert the Double Serial Interface Board with the compo-
nents side facing right, as seen from behind. Check that the
board ts into the two square cut-outs on the left side of the
slot.
Attach the Double Serial Interface Board to the printers
rear plate by means of two of the screws left over when you
removed the original cover plate.
Using the remaining two screws, attach the narrow cover
plate included in the delivery so it covers the right side of
the slot.
Connect the cable running from P81 on the CPU board to
connector P1 on the Double Serial Interface Board.

Put back the cover over the electronics compartment. Press
rmly to compress the leaf springs along the front and rear
edges of the electronics compartment.

Now you have two new interface connectors on the printer's
rear plate in addition to the standard serial interface "uart1:"
and the standard parallel interface "centronics:". Connect
the interface cables and switch on the power.

length, parity, number of stop bits, owcontrol, new line,
and buffer size parameters for the new serial ports "uart2:"
and "uart3:".

Open the electronics compartment by removing the front/
left-hand cover, which is held by three #T20 Torx screws
from the media compartment side of the center section.
Warning!
Switch off the power and disconnect the power cord. The
electronics compartment contains high voltage components
and wires. Do not open the electronics compartment before
the printer is safely disconnected from any AC supply.
Remove the two #T10 Torx screws that hold the interface
cover plate on the printers rear plate. Remove the cover
plate.
Save the cover plate for possible later use. Keep the
screws.

Serial Port Con guration "uart2:"
The serial communication port "uart2:" can be con gured for
one of four different types of serial communication:
RS-232
RS-422 non isolated
RS-422 isolated
RS-485
By tting or removing certain circuits and straps, the desired
type of interface can be selected. This is either done at factory
or by the customer. There can only be one driver circuit and its
corresponding straps tted at a time.
Caution!
When fi tting circuits yourself, do it before connecting the inter-
face board and make sure that the circuits are not fi tted upside
down (see front end markings in the illustrations in this chap-
ter.) Also take care so all “legs” of the circuits fi t into their
respective slots in the socket and are not bent. Also, take
proper precautions so as to protect the board and circuits from
electrostatic discharges.
