Troubleshooting
LED locks on a port when a cable is connected:
The Bitronics Auto Switch receives signal glitches and starts time-out counting. If the connecting
printer is ready, just wait till the time-out expires.
Reset the switch by turning DIP switch segment 1 ON (down) and then off again.
1.
The printer status Windows show "printer not responding" or "cable not connected" intermittently:
The switches do not emulate printer responses. Therefore when status Windows poll for printer
status at the same time, these messages occur. Make sure there is only one printer driver with
status Window (bi-directional) ability installed on your computer.
2.
Error messages show up while or after installing new printer drivers:
Un-install other bi-directional printer status Windows before installing a new one.
Press the button to lock your computer to the printer before installing a new printer driver, or
install a new driver without the Bitronics Auto Switch.
3.
