1-3 Drawer Cable

Connect the cash drawer connecting cable to the cash drawer connector located in the back of the printer.

※ Warning

Use a cash drawer that meets the printer specifications. Using an improper cash drawer may cause faults in the cash drawer and the printer. Make sure to use a cash drawer with an internal coil resistance of 24 Ω(Ohm) or higher. (The maximum current is 1A.) The open signal time for the cash drawer should not exceed 0.8 seconds. After opening the cash drawer, make sure to idle for at least 3.2 seconds(at least 4 times that of the open signal time) before operating it. Do not connect to a communication connector such as telephone line or modem as it can damage the project.

※ Caution

Do not connect a telephone line to the drawer kick-out connector. Otherwise, the telephone line and the computer may be damaged.
