Parallel Printer Interface D9131A

Installation Guide

1.0 Description

The Bosch Security Systems, Inc. D9131A Parallel Printer Interface is an accessory for the Bosch D9412GV2, D7412GV2,
D7212GV2, D9412G, D7412G, D7212G, D9412, D7412, D7212, and D9112 Control Panels. The D9131A connects to a
standard parallel printer via a standard parallel printer cable. A four-wire connection, of up to 305 m (1000 ft), connects the
remotely located D9131A Printer Interface to the control panel. The D9131A prints a two-line message for each selected event
that occurs. The D9412GV2, D9412G, D9412, and D9112 supervise three printers. Each printer requires a separate D9131A
Printer Interface Module. The D7412GV2, D7212GV2, D7412G, D7212G, D7412, and D7212 supervise one printer with a
D9131A.

On-premises recording of selected events allows you to review events on an as-needed basis. This capability reduces the
number of telephone calls to the receiver from both the user and the technician, as well as reducing the number of reports
from the control panel to the receiver.
