PQ-6 PLUS (RO) 6 2. Introduction 2.1 Application The PQ-6 PLUS (RO) is a “receive-only” microprocessor -based printer inter face for the IBM System/34, System/36, and System/38 computers. It allows a printer with an RS-232 or Centronics compatible port to inter face with IBM twinaxial cable via a male DB15 and twinax “pigtail” cable.
PQ-6 PLUS (RO) 7 The Centronics parallel inter face is a 25-pin, parallel byte inter face. It has eight lines that carr y their respective binary bits in parallel. The transmission of these data bits is controlled by the computer-supplied STROBE pulse.
PQ-6 PLUS (RO) 8 3. Installation The installation procedure is divided into three sections: • Section 3.1, Initial Setup , explains how to position the PQ-6 (RO) after unpacking it, plug in the power supply , and run off-line tests. • Section 3.2, System Configuration and Connection , covers the considerations for setting up the PQ-6 PLUS (RO).

PQ-6 PLUS (RO) 10 Installing an RS-232 Printer Connect the 6-pin connector from the power supply to the 6-pin connector on the back of the PQ-6 PLUS (RO). Remove the top cover of the PQ-6 PLUS (RO). Do not plug it into the AC outlet at this time. Locate switch SW1 to set the baud rate and port configuration.
PQ-6 PLUS (RO) 11 Installing a Centronics compatible printer Connect the 6-pin connector from the power supply to the 6-pin connector on the back of the PQ-6 PLUS (RO). Do not plug it into the AC outlet at this time. Place the large jumper strip at P3, in the “A-B” position for parallel output.

PQ-6 PLUS (RO) 16 Y ou must configure the system at a console to inform the operating system of the new device port, address, and unit ID assignments. NOTE Y ou don’t have to configure the system if a pre viously e xisting 5256, 5224, or 5225 printer was replaced by the PQ-6 PLUS (R O) or if you have auto-config enab led on the AS/400.

PQ-6 PLUS (RO) 22 4.4 Buffer Print Mode A buffer print listing interprets the actions of a printer or similar device on the twinax cable. All the data that is received is listed as a hexadecimal printout. None of the formatting commands are executed; rather , they are printed to aid in the interpretation.
PQ-6 PLUS (RO) 23 4.4.3 N OTES The first block contains a single byte (a hex 0C). In EBCDIC, that’ s a formfeed. Note that it is not a printing character and the space under the 0C is blank. The next block of data contains 28 bytes. It starts with a 2B, which is a format command (similar to an ASCII escape sequence).
