Main Menu

Switch on the direct print module and the display shows the main menu. The main menu shows information such as device
type, current date and time, version number of firmware and the used FPGA.
The selected display is shown for a short time, then the indication returns to the first information.
Press key to arrive the next information display.
Relevant results are counted and registered in RAM memory. The protocole get lost after
switching off the device.
RInt = Real Interrupts
The start input impulses are counted directly at the Interrupt.
Dbnc = Debounced
The start input impulses that are longer than the set debounce time are counted. Only these
start impulses can lead to a print. If a start impulse is too short, no print is released. This is
recognized by the fact that RInt is counted, Dbnc not.
NPrn = Not Printed
The debounced start input impulses that have not lead to a print are counted. Causes: no active
print order, print order stopped (manually or because of an error) or the printing system ist still
active with the processing of a print order.
PrtStrtReset = The counters are reset.
PrtStrtTime = Measured length of the last start impulse in ms.
This function is activated e.g. if the transfer ribbon is to be changed. It is avoided that a print
order is processed although the module is not ready. If the function is activated then press the
key to change between Online and Offline mode. The respective state is indicated in the
display (Standard: Off).
Online: Data can be received by interface. The keys of the foil keyboard are only active, if you
changed in the Offline mode with key
Offline: The keys of the foil keyboard are still active but received data are not processed. If the
module is again in Online mode then new print orders can be again received.
TRB = Transfer ribbon advance warning:
Before the end of transfer ribbon, a signal is send by the control output.
Warning diameter:
Setting of transfer ribbon advance warning diameter.
In case you enter a value in mm then a signal appears via control output when reaching this
diameter (measured at transfer ribbon roll).
Ribbon advance warning mode:
Warning: When reaching the transfer ribbon advance warning diamter, the corresponding I/O
output is set.
Reduced print speed: Speed on which the printing speed is to be reduced.
Error: The printing system stops when reaching the transfer ribbon advance warning diameter
with the message 'too less ribbon'.
Reduced print speed:
Setting of the reduced print speed in mm/s. This can be set in the limits of the normal print
speed.
With this command, different log files are saved on an existing storage medium (memory card or
USB stick). After the 'Finish' message the storage medium can be removed.
The files are in directory 'log':
LogMemErr.txt: Logged errors with additional information such as date/time and file name/line
number (for developers).
LogMemStd.txt: Logging of selected events.
LogMemNet.txt: Data latest send via port 9100.
Parameters.log: All printer parameters in human readable form.
TaskStatus.txt: Status of all printer tasks.
