ATTACHING A PRINTER OR PC
A printer or PC may be connected to the Expert Torque Wrench
using the supplied RS232 cable. Attach the small 5 pin connector
to the Expert Torque Wrench as shown, making sure the red dot on
the connector aligns with the red dot on the Expert Torque Wrench.
The other end of the cable connects to the serial port on a dot
matrix printer such as the Epson LX-300 or to the serial port of a PC.
Note: The Expert Torque Wrench cable has a 5 pin round
connector to the wrench. This means the previous 4 pin cables for
earlier Expert Torque Wrench models cannot be used.
