D. Description
This LCD is a self-contained multiplexed unit which provides a simple
interface to a microprocessor system.
The display is available with one I/O connector for both the RS232
interfacing and the power supply.
This unit consists of a liquid crystal display cell and a minimal amount of
electronic hardware. All display characters and control codes can be accessed in
a 8-bit format. Primary complexity is contained within the microprocessor
software, which controls all display functions.
Data is entered serially at 9600 baud rate as default and can be changed to
19200 baud rate per jumper setting. The large characters are easily readable, and
provide comfortable short or long-term viewing.

III. INSTALLATION
A. Signal connection
Connect the DB9 female connector of the signal cable CCBLA - 372 to
the COM port of the host computer or POS system and connect the DB9 male
connector of the signal cable CCBLA – 372 to the DB9 female connector in the
base of the PD.
B. Power connection
1. Using power adaptor
Please place the base of the PD-7100/7200 series on a horizontal surface.
Check that the power adaptor must meet the specification of the city power and
then plug the adapter into city power outlet. Prepare to turn on the power switch
at base of the PD.
2. Using power from PC
Install the cable
CCBLA-141 with I/O plate
in the power kit into the
hosting PC for obtaining
DC power as shown in the
left drawing. However, it is
absolutely important to
turn all the power off
before removing any case
or connecting any cable.
Followings are step-by-step
instructions for installing
this cable.

3. Select one I/O plate position on rear window of PC to install the I/O
plate of CCBLA-141.
4. Select one set of large 4 pin connector from the switching power
supply unit of PC and connect the male 4 pin connector of CCBLA-
141 to the connector from power supply. Connect the female 4 pin
connector of CCBLA-141 to the I/O device of PC such as a HDD if
necessary.
5. Assemble the case of PC back.
Then referring to drawing below to complete the basic power and signal
cabling. Note the PC should remain OFF during the connection.

Rear side of PC
1. Connect the 4 pin telephone plug of CCBLA-411 to the 4 pin
telephone jack on the I/O plate of CCBLA-141 which has been
mounted as described above.
2. Insert the DC plug of CCBLA-411 into the jack at the bottom of the
base of PD in the same way as the power adaptor. Let the cables come
out of the bottom of PD7100/7200 series through the opening at the
back of base so that the PD can stand securely.
3. Now the user may turn on the PC and the PD for application unless the
user wants to use PD for pass through purpose.

3. Using power from POS system
This super convenient power supply method applies only when connected
to a Posiflex POS system after proper setting for power in COM port. The power
connection is already done when the signal connection is completed.
4. Using printer power adaptor

Power Cable
(20863250900)
The PD-7100/7200 series can also be powered by the power adaptor
supporting a Posiflex POS printer by using a separately purchased specific
power cable (P/N: 20863250900). Follow steps below:
1. Check that the (+24 V DC) power adaptor plug matches the power socket.
But please always keep the insertion of the power adaptor into the power
socket as the very last step of the whole installation procedure.
2. Insert the 3 pin power connector from the +24 V DC power adaptor to the
“+24 V DC In” jack in the PD7000 connector area. Be sure to hear a click
to obtain a firm contact.
3. Insert either end of the power cable (20863250900) to “+24 V DC Out”
jack in the connector area and insert the other end to the power connector
of Posiflex POS printer if needed. Be sure to hear a click at each
connection to obtain a firm contact.
4. Now place the base on a horizontal surface and prepare to power on.
5. Please note that when DC power connection is used, there must be no
AC power connection at the bottom of the base cabinet on the PD7000.
C. Connect for Pass Through Operation
In this series the jumper settings are internally set to pass through mode,
while the PD is delivered with a COM port terminator on the 9 pin male
connector at the bottom of PD. In this way, the PD serves the non-pass-through
operation well. For pass through operation, the user has to merely remove this
COM port terminator and connect the pass through connected device in stead.
3 - 3
Please reserve the COM port terminator in a safe place in case the non-pass-
through operation would be required in the future.
D. After Powering Up
A firmware version as power on sign will appear on the screen for a while
and the emulation mode will appear for a while after the firmware version
display. Then a under-line cursor will appear at the left-most digit of the top row
for Noritake and IEE emulation mode and no cursor will appear for other
emulation modes. The installation is now completed.
IV. OPERATION
A. Displaying Data
All data in 8-bit format received can be classified into 2 categories as data
to display or command codes for the customer display unit to respond. For this
series, unless under pass through mode or as part of the command code, any byte
between and including <20>h and <FF>h is regarded as alphanumerical data to
display according to ASCII table (the <XX>h means the hexadecimal
expression). The command codes except the clear pass through flag command in
Noritake mode always start with a byte between and including <00>h and <1F>h.
For PD-7110/7120/7210/7220, the command codes follow the same rule as PD-
7100/7200, however, only those between and including <20>h and <7F>h are
taken as alphanumerical data to display according to ASCII table in 8 x 16
format. Any two bytes with the first byte between and including <80>h and
<FF>h are regarded as the expression for an oriental language character. When
these two bytes fall off the content of the valid oriental language code table, an
invalid character will be displayed.

condition in an attempt to write to this serial port.
D. Serial Data and Self-test
Serial characters are received with data formatted as a 10-bit word. The
command set is structured to allow transmission of 8 data bits. The data rate is
default at 9600 baud per second and can be changed to 19200 baud per second as
described above. There is no parity bit and 1 stop bit. The level is RS-232C

Self-test is a very useful feature and can be activated by sending 1F-40
(HEX). The test may be terminated by sending 1B-40 (HEX). The test sequence
is as follows
a. Clear screen, Cursor home.
b. Vertical scroll mode test, show product ID and version.
c. For PD-7100/7200, it enters Overwrite mode and displays 20
characters of “A” followed by 20 characters of “B”.
For PD-7110/7210 and PD-7120/7220, it enters Horizontal scroll
mode test, and shows 20 CHINESE characters (addresses: B0A1,
B1A2, B2A3, ……, BEAF, BFB0, C0B1, ……, C3B4)
d. For PD-7100/7200, it enters Horizontal Scroll mode after clearing
screen, then displays ASCII code font of current page from 21 to FF
(HEX).
For PD-7110/7210 and PD-7120/7220, it enters Wrap around mode
and shows ASCII code font from 21 to 7F (HEX).
