An alternative method is to send the 'set up' data via the RS232
port to prevent the need for manual programming.
Set up via data interface
If the unit is turned on whilst both the programme and feed
switches are pressed and only the programme switch is
released, the unit will print:-
"NVR COMMS READY>"
At this point the printer is waiting to receive data in the following
format:
"PROGRAMME-MODE" + CARRIAGE RETURN + n1 + ...n10
(n1 to n10 are hex numbers).
The "PROGRAMME-MODE" followed by a carriage return
indicates that the printer should expect parameter data as
shown in table 1. Upon receiving information in the correct
format the unit will print:
"DATA OK, NVR UPDATED!"
If the data received is not in the correct format then the unit will
print:
"DATA ERROR NVR UNCHANGED"
Note: If no data is received within 15 seconds or the feed key
is released before the procedure is complete, then the
change of parameters will not take place and the unit will
print:
"SET ERROR NVR UNCHANGED"
SET UP COMMAND PROTOCOL
String "PROGRAMME-MODE", 0DH,n1,n2,n3,n4,n5,n6,n7,n8,n9,n10.

The programme sets: 7 data, odd parity, 4800 baud, France,
Data mode, 1 min., 560, NORMAL DTR, zero with a "slash"
across it.
Note: The factory defaults can always be restored by pressing
both the feed and programme switches at power up then
releasing only the feed switch. Defaults will be restored
and a printed message acknowledges that this has
occurred.
Operators guide
Operation
* DO read the operating instructions carefully before you attempt
to use the printer.
*DO ensure that any electrical connections are properly made
in accordance with the instructions.
*DO NOT remove any fixed covers unless you are qualified to
do so and even then switch off first and disconnect the power
adaptor from the socket before you start.
*DO NOT continue to operate the printer if you have any doubt
about it working normally, or if it is damaged in any way. Refer
the unit for repair.
Power on procedure
Check the batteries are sufficiently charged or that the power
adaptor is connected correctly.
Open the lid and check that paper and ribbon are present, and
that there are no foreign objects inside the paper well or
mechanism.
Close the lid, ensuring the paper is guided out through the paper
exit slot.
Switch on the printer by pressing the symbol marked 'I' on the
switch panel.
