hi everyone,
I'm trying to connect m hmi with the printer without result.
I have set the printer in ibm2390+ and port baud rate etc are same as per my port in ix developer.
My pinout is the one from rs232 db9 to db25 (i attached the gif) .
I have set the character to pc850(multilingual) in the printer.
At the ix developer tag for setting the port No1 in my case i did it like below
According to the manual of the printer the serial port's characteristics are:
But there is not communication in the end.
Can please somebody give me some help??
to complete my post i will give you more info. I set the alarm server and clicked alarm distribution enabled for just one tag which i'm manipulating it internally.
i have also set the alarm distributor, added the printer at the route with parallel receivers. At the settings of the printer i left the default settings.
Finally at the settings of the alarm items in the alarm server in the alarm distribution tab i clicked Enable Sending To Alarm Distribution Server and clicked Internal.
At the server mode tab i clicked Local.
Sorry for my long text without any photos. I can attach only three.
