DESCRIPTION
nRI1
nRI2
I
(Note1)
Active low Ring Indicator inputs for the serial port.
Handshake signal which notifies the UART that the
telephone ring signal is detected by the modem. The
CPU can monitor the status of nRI signal by reading
bit 6 of Modem Status Register (MSR). A nRI signal
state change from low to high after the last MSR read
will set MSR bit 2 to a 1. If bit 3 of Interrupt Enable
Register is set, the interrupt is generated when nRI
changes state. Note: Bit 6 of MSR is the
complement of nRI.
PARALLEL PORT INTERFACE (NOTE 2)
nSLCTIN
(OD14/OP1 This active low output selects the printer. This is the
4)/OD12 complement of bit 3 of the Printer Control Register.
Refer to Parallel Port description for use of this pin in
ECP and EPP mode.

nInitiate
nINIT
(OD14/OP1 This output is bit 2 of the printer control register. This
Output
4)/OD12 is used to initiate the printer when low.
(Note2)
Refer to Parallel Port description for use of this pin in
ECP and EPP mode.

76
nAutofeed
nAUTOFD (OD14/OP1 This output goes low to cause the printer to
Output
(Note2)
4)/OD12 automatically feed one line after each line is printed.
The nAUTOFD output is the complement of bit 1 of
the Printer Control Register.
Refer to Parallel Port description for use of this pin in
ECP and EPP mode.

77
nStrobe
nSTROBE (OD14/OP1 An active low pulse on this output is used to strobe
Output
(Note2)
4)/OD12 the printer data into the printer. The nSTROBE
output is the complement of bit 0 of the Printer Control
Register.
Refer to Parallel Port description for use of this pin in
ECP and EPP mode.
59
61
Busy
BUSY
I/OD12
This is a status output from the printer, a high
indicating that the printer is not ready to receive new
data. Bit 7 of the Printer Status Register is the
complement of the BUSY input. Refer to Parallel Port
description for use of this pin in ECP and EPP mode.
60
62
nAcknowl-
nACK
I/OD12 A low active output from the printer indicating that it
edge
has received the data and is ready to accept new
data. Bit 6 of the Printer Status Register reads the
nACK input. Refer to Parallel Port description for use
of this pin in ECP and EPP mode.
58
60
Paper End PE
I/OD12
Another status output from the printer, a high
indicating that the printer is out of paper. Bit 5 of the
Printer Status Register reads the PE input. Refer to
Parallel Port description for use of this pin in ECP and
EPP mode.
