Printer Interface

The Printer feature, when enabled through the CARD Suite Software, allows a printed log of receive
DTMF decode and signaling information to be captured. Optionally, an application such as Windows
HyperTeminal may be used on the Navigator PC to capture this data.

NOTE

The printer feature requires the use of a serial printer. A parallel printer output

is not available.

Installation

1. Use the CARD Suite Software application to configure the console. The Printer Installed selection

(Console Parameters tab) must be enabled. Select the desired Printer Incoming Messages and Printer
Outgoing Messages on the Digital Signaling Console Parameters tab.

2. After programming has been completed, disconnect the programming cable from the RS-232 port.

3. Attach a customer-provided 25-pin serial interface (DB25) from the printer interface cable to the

printer and the 15-pin interface to the RS-232 & I/O connector on the MCU. Secure the plug screws
on each interface. Refer to the printer’s instruction manual for information concerning printer use.
