THIS MANUAL
This service manual contains technical data, procedures, prints and schematics for the maintenance
of
Model H80
and H136 printers. The Model H80
is
an
80
column printer. The Model H136
is
a
156
column printer. Look for
differences in configurations and parts descriptions due to wider platen, longer line length, etc. Most other func-
tions are identical.
1.2 OVERVIEW
The printer consists
of
the print mechanism, control circuits, power supply, control panel and enclosure. The serial
interface
is
an option.

(a)
DATA I - 8 O Bits 1 - 8
of
character code and image data
O Read into the printer strobed by STB.
O DATA I - 8 should not vary while STB =
L.
--
(b)
STB O Strobe signal to read DATA I - 8
O STB
is
effective when BUSY=
L.
O The next STB should not be output before ACKNLG appears.
(c)
INPRM o Signal to initialize the printer
O
If
INPRM appears when the priater
is
operating,
it
stops imme-
diately. Initialization
is
executed at the rise
of
INPRM from
"L"
to
"H".

(d)
ACKNLG 0 Acknowledge signal responding to STB
O
The
next STB should not be output before ACKNLG returns.
O ACKNLG
is
output independently
of
STB under the following
conditions.
a)
INPRM has appeared after power-on to put the unit
in
ON-
LINE mode.
b) OFF-LINE mode has changed to ON-LINE.
(e)
BUSY 0 When BUSY is H, the unit
is
busy.
0 When BUSY
is
L, the unit
is
ready. ACKNLG
is
output when
BUSY decays to L.
o BUSY is
Hin
OFF-LINE mode.
<0
PE 0 PE rises to H when paper runs out.
• Except when the paper sensor switch
of
the SO-characters/line

is
set to

or
when the paper release lever
of
the 156-characters/line printer
is
set to a position other than
PIN FEED.
(g)
SLCT o When SLCT
is
H, the unit
is
selected.
(h) FAULT O FAULT
is
Lin
the following conditions.
a)
When paper
is
out.
b) In off-line mode

9. Power supply
The printer incorporates a
68A02
8-bit microprocessor (MPU). A clock signal
of
1MHz
is
generated from 6 MHz
generated by a quartz crystal, to time data transfer operations.
The
printer consists
of
ROM which stores software, data buffer RAM, printer unit, control panel, buzzer and
LSis (PIA, PTM, PPI) which control interface ports. Each device is controlled by the timing signal output
fromMPU.
2.5.1
Power-On-Reset Circuit
The power-on-reset circuit initializes the MPU and resets the head to the home position.
Power-on-reset initializes the MPU, PIA,
PTM,
and PPI on one hand, and prevents the printer from printing
something
at
the moment
of
power-on on the otherhand.
At the moment
of
power-on, waveforms are as shown in Figure
2-1.

Microprocessor
Unit
(MPU)
The 68A02 MPU generates the basic clock
of
1 MHz
(1
uS) from a 6 MHz quartz oscillator.
The basic clock signal (E)
is
used to time data transfer operations between the MPU and peripheral LSis.
