nected to your BOOKMAN, to transfer
data to a personal computer (PC).
Warning: Using a serial cable other
than the one obtained from Franklin
may damage your BOOKMAN and/or
PC. Franklin’s serial cable is specifi-
cally designed for the transfer of data
between BOOKMAN and a PC.
Speaker: The speaker is located on
the back of your BOOKMAN near the
serial port. For best results, do not
cover the speaker with your hand.
