Installation

2.1Installation Precautions

WARNING

Before installing, disconnect the Power Unit from the TM Printer (as well as turning the power switch off).

Even when the power switch is off, voltage is still present at some points on the circuit board. Changing components while the Power Unit is connected can cause damage to the UB-E02 and the printer.

A grounded wrist strap should be worn during installation, to avoid damage from static electricity.

To avoid damage from static electricity when the unit is removed, place it on an static-safe surface such as conductive foam.

Protect the unit from vibration and shock that could damage to the unit.

Be careful to avoid dropping conductive objects such as paper clips on the circuit board, as they could short circuit connections and cause damage from excessive current.

This product should only be connected to the devices specified in this guide. Connecting other devices could cause damage, fire or explosion.

Do not attempt to wire this product other than as described in this document. Improper wiring could cause damage, fire or explosion.

Never disassemble or modify this product. Tampering with this product may result in injury, fire, or electric shock.

Do not use in locations subject to high temperature, humidity or dust levels. Excessive temperature, humidity or dust may cause equipment damage, fire, or shock.

Never connect a public telephone line to the modular connector on this product.

Parts on the circuit board may become hot during operation. Therefore, wait approximately 10 minutes after turning the power off before touching them.

To prevent the possibility of electrical shock, do not perform installation or connect cables during a thunderstorm.

*1 TM-U220 has two DIP switch pattern. See TM-U220 Technical Reference Guide for detail.

Be sure to disconnect the power supply of the printer (in addition to turning off the power switch) .Even when the power switch is turned off, some of the internal circuit board has electricity. If you install or remove the UB-E02 with the power supply connected, the UB-E02 and the printer may be damaged.

1.Be sure that the power for the printer and host computer is turned off.

2.Install the UB-E02 in the printer.

If an interface circuit board is already installed, remove it and install the UB-E02.

3.Tighten the screws.

If you have removed an interface circuit board that was already installed, fix the UB-E02 using the removed screws.

4.Plug the twist pair cable into the 10BASE-T/100BASE-TX Ethernet connector of the UB-E02 until it clicks.

CAUTION:

Be sure not to connect a telephone line, display module connector, or drawer kick-out connector cable to the 10BASE-T/100BASE-TX Ethernet connector of the UB-E02.

The display module connector on the TM printer cannot be used when the UB-E02 is installed.

5.Connect the power unit to the printer.

6.Turn on the printer power.

Note:

When initializing the UB-E02 by turning off the power and then turning it back on or by resetting the printer, there is a waiting time until the network starts operating. During this time, all the communicating functions of the network do not work.

The waiting time is:

When the IP address setting is Manual (Fixed): When the IP address setting is Auto:

approximately 6 seconds approximately 13 seconds

(It can be longer, depending on the reply time of the host.)

2.6 Initializing UB-E02

All the parameters of internal settings for the UB-E02 can be set to the factory default values. Follow the steps below:

1.Turn off the printer power. Be sure to confirm that the LED lights are off.

2.Turn on the printer power while pressing the switch of the UB-E02 and hold the switch until the factory default values are printed.

3.After "Resetting to Factory Default!" is printed, release the switch.

4.Initialization takes approximately 30 seconds. Do not turn off the printer power during the initialization.

5.When the initialization is finished, the status sheet is printed. The following are printed on the status sheet.

•TCP/IP settings

•SNMP settings

•MAC address and version of UB-E02

•Other status items of UB-E02

CAUTION:

Do not turn off the printer power until the status sheet is printed out.

2.7 UB-E02 Status Sheet Printing

The internal setting parameters of the UB-E02 can be printed. Follow the steps below:

1.Confirm that the printer power is on and the printer is ready for printing.

2.Press the switch of the UB-E02 and hold the switch more than 3 seconds.

3.After the status sheet printing starts, release the switch.

2.8 FAQ

2.8.1 Q1. The printer does not operate correctly. ("Serial interface" is printed by the self test for the printer.)

2.8.1.1 A1. For TM-T90, TM-L90, TM-J2000, TM-J2100, TM-J7000, TM-J7100, TM-J7500, and TM-J7600, set the #25 pin reset signal of the Memory switch set to disabled. For other models, use the printer with the #31 pin reset signal of the DIP switch for parallel interface enabled.

2.8.2 Q2. The self test does not operate correctly.

2.8.2.1 A2. Turn on the printer power while pressing the FEED button and hold the Feed button until printing starts to perform the self test for the printer with the UB-E02. Printing starts in approximately 6 seconds when the IP address is fixed or approximately 13 seconds when the IP address is acquired by auto setting. (It can be longer, depending on the reply time of the host.)

2.8.3 Q3. Starting up the printer takes a long time.

2-8 Installation

UB-E02 Technical Reference Guide

2.8.3.1 A3. When the auto setting is set for IP address acquisition without a DHCP server, starting up the printer takes about one minute. During this time, the self test for the printer is not performed. Set the manual setting for IP address acquisition where the DHCP server is not available.
