Interface Centronics > RS232, Model 28000
Function
The W&T-Interface 28000 allows uni-directional connection of
peripherals equipped with an RS232 port to the parallel port on
a computer.
Setting the Interface
Before first using, the RS232 parameters for the interface need
to be set using the DIL switches inside the Interface housing.
The baud rate, data format and handshake procedure need to
be set to the values which the connected peripheral uses.
The DIL switch settings can be found in the following table:
baudrate SW2 SW3 SW4 SW5 handshake SW1
150 ON ON off off hardware off
300 off off ON off XON/XOFF ON
600 ON off ON off
1200 off ON ON off parity SW7 SW8

Connecting the Interface
The Interface has a Centronics input and an RS232 output.
Centronics interface
The Centronics input of the Interface corresponds in its wiring
and signal characteristics to the input of a parallel printer. This
means that any normal printer cable permitting connection of
the data source with a Centronics printer can be used to
connect the Interface input to the data sender.
RS232 interface
Since peripherals also as a rule have RS232 ports configured as
DTE, the connection between the Interface and the peripheral
can usually be made using a serial printer cable configured as
follows:
Supply voltage
The Interface is powered using the supplied AC adapter. The
adapter provides a regulated voltage of 5 V ±5%. Commercially
available, unregulated AC adapters are not suitable for powering
the Interface.
