Connecting Peripheral Devices
After you have fitted the module, connect the following peripheral devices:
1. Connect the barcode reader to the module’s RS232 interface socket (1). (The auxiliary
serial port (2) allows connection to a PC but has no Philips software support.)
2. If necessary, connect a phone-line adapter and secure it to the module with cable
fasteners or Velcro-type strip.
3. Checking it is the correct way up, insert a Philips approved PCMCIA card modem
into the card connector port (3), pushing it until it is slotted in position.
4. Following the telephone connection recommendations given by the PCMCIA card
modem manufacturer and your local telephone company, connect the socket at the
rear of the PCMCIA card modem, or phone-line adapter to the telephone wall jack.
