Appendix A
Printing and Data Transfer
Introduction
This Appendix provides information on the Simulator’s RS232 and printer ports,
including how to configure the port on your printer or computer.
The Simulator provides a male D (9-pin) bi-directional serial port located at the back side
of the unit, for the transfer of data to a computer or printer, and for computer control of
the Simulator. The Data Computer Equipment (DCE) wiring configuration is shown
Figure A-1.

Pin 1 of the serial connector provides the Simulator’s synchronized pulse. This pulse is
normally in phase with the start of each 64-point pleth wave. The phase of the sync pulse
with regard to the wave can be varied using the [CPHASE nn] command, where nn is a
number in the range of 0 to 63. The pulse is a negative going attenuated logic level. For
more information, refer to “Appendix E: Computer Control”.
