Y Cable, bar code data will display
on the terminal as if it had been typed.
The F45-1 Serial

ASCII terminal connect-
ed to a host computer
. Unplug
the host cable from the termi- nal and plug it into the DB25 Female cable end on the F45-1 cable. Connect the other 25 pin end of the F45-1
Y Cable

The
WDR R22 no

minal.
