2 PK80 Series 80-Column Printer Installation Instructions

The PK80 Series 80-Column Printer and associated electrical wiring

should be installed under the supervision of properly trained and qualified

personnel. Follow these installation instructions to ensure safe, reliable per-

formance of the PK80 Series Printer.

Installation Kits

Note: Battery cables at various lengths and other power cables are sold se-

parately. See “Inside Sales”inthePK80 Series 80-Column Printer User’s

Manual (P/N: 961-018-004) for ordering information and part numbers.

Intermec Technologies Corporation has the following vehicle installation

kit available for the PK80 Series Printer:

SPK80 Cable Installation Kit (P/N: 203-660-001)

These kits allow you to wire the printer and vehicle dock in a delivery ve-

hicle. Your Intermec Representative can help you determine the best

installation approach.

When the installation is complete, you will have a secure place to store the

printer and mobile computer. The vehicle electrical system will provide

power to operate the printer and vehicle dock.

In this installation, the power cable is wired directly to the vehicle battery.

This reduces installation problems and takes advantage of the vehicle bat-

tery filtering.

The installation kits contain nuts, bolts, washers, a terminal ring, and a

fuse link (on direct to battery installations) for connecting the battery cable

directly to the vehicle battery. These kits also contain adjustable wire

clamps to secure the cable in place.

Installation Procedures

This section will lead you through these three installation steps:

1Electrical installation (battery cable).

2Mechanical installation (printer).

3Final assembly and cable connection.

Tools Required

You should have a wire crimping and stripping tool; an electric drill with

3/16” and 9/16” drill bits; a screw-captivating screwdriver, a voltmeter,

and common hand tools.

Vehicle Electrical System

Note: If the vehicle voltage is too high or too low, the printer may not

work.

The vehicle electrical system must be in good condition for all types of

installations. The charging circuit must work properly and vehicle-gener-

ated electrical “noise” must be minimized. Do the following to determine

your vehicle’s voltage level:

1Measure the vehicle battery voltage with a voltmeter. It should read

approximately 13.0 V dc with the engine OFF.

2Start the vehicle engine. Continue monitoring the battery’s voltage

while you run the engine at a fast idle for five minutes. Ideally, the volt-

age should read below 14.5 V dc. The voltage can go up, but not over,

18.0 V dc.

Note: If the battery voltage exceeds 18.0 V dc, there is a problem with the

vehicle electrical system which must be diagnosed and repaired before the

printer and vehicle dock will work properly. Check your engine for a bad

voltage regulator or a poor ground, either of which can cause excessive

voltage.

Excess electrical noise can be severe enough to defeat the electrical filtering

that is built into IntermecRcables, printers, and vehicle docks. Defective

ignition wiring, damaged insulation, or a faulty vehicle electrical compo-

nent can cause electrical noise — possibly causing unpredictable behavior

in printers and docks.

Electrical Installation

Decide where to mount the PK80 Series Printer and optional vehicle dock,

then follow the appropriate instructions.

Power Cable Routing

SCable Length:

A printer dc power cable connects the printer to the vehicle battery

cable, extending the overall cable length (gotopage6).

S“Y” Power/Data Cable

Note that this is the recommended routing. A “Y” cable that includes pow-

er and data communication to the vehicle dock.

“Y” power/data cable

5PK80 Series 80-Column Printer Installation Instructions

S“Y” Power Cable:

A special “Y” cable and a remote data communications cable are re-

quired when using vehicle docks with 700 Series Computers. The “Y”

cable limits the separation of the dock and printer to eight feet (2.4 me-

ters). However, using separate power cables for the dock and printer do

allow you to locate the printer and the vehicle dock up to 30 feet (9.1

meters) apart.

“Y” power cable

“Y” Power Cable

A “Y” cable is available to connect all of the components of your confi-

guration. This cable can take the place of the dc power cable shown in the

illustration (item #1) on page 6.

With the 700 Series Computers, a “Y” cable supplies power to both the

vehicle dock or the remote terminal holder and to the printer. The rectan-

gular connector plugs into the vehicle battery cable.

6 PK80 Series 80-Column Printer Installation Instructions

Direct-to-Battery Cable Installation

We recommend you connect printers directly to the battery based on the

following criteria:

SThe vehicle battery acts as an electrical filter and regulator.

SIf there is any damage to the printer dc power cable, the cable is easily

replaced.

Route the Cables

Use the following guidelines when routing the printer dc power cable and

the vehicle battery cable:

SRoute the vehicle battery cable from the area where the printer will be

mounted toward the vehicle battery.

SWhen possible, route the printer power cable along with existing vehicle

wiring. Use cable ties to join the cable and wiring together.

SUse a snap-in bushing (requires 9/16” hole) if the vehicle battery cable

passes through the firewall or other sheet-metal.

SMake sure that cable routing does not interfere with other equipment or

vehicle controls.

SEnsure that cable routing does not invite damage to the cable.

SSecure the vehicle battery cable at least every 18 inches (50 centimeters)

throughout the cable run: use adjustable clamps (provided) or wire-tie

to existing vehicle cable runs.

SCompletely install the printer power cable and take voltage measure-

ments before connecting the printer.

Prepare the Vehicle Battery Cable

After you have routed the vehicle battery cable to the vehicle battery, per-

form the following to prepare the vehicle battery cable for the terminal

ring and fuse link assembly. The gray vehicle battery cable must be connected

according to the instructions on the next page:

Strip the Vehicle Battery Cable Jacket

Do the following to strip the gray vehicle battery cable jacket and insula-

tion:

1Cut the gray battery cable near the battery to avoid coiling or tying ex-

cess cable.

2Strip the battery cable jacket (gray) back 12–14 inches (31–36 centime-

ters).

3Strip 1/4” (6 mm) of insulation from the black (or brown) and red

wires.

Connect to the Vehicle Battery

Your vehicle has either a top-mount battery with the terminals on the top;

or a side-mount battery with terminals on the side. Determine which bat-

tery is in your vehicle and proceed with the applicable instructions:

Connect to a Side-Mount Vehicle Battery

Do the following to attach the vehicle battery cable to a side-mount bat-

tery terminal as shown in the following illustration:

1Disconnect the negative battery cable, then the positive battery cable.

2Remove the bolts from each battery cable.

3Screw a 3/8” nut (2) as far as it will go onto a 3/8” x 1-1/2” bolt (1) fur-

nished in the kit.

4Slipa3/8”washer(7) onto the bolt.

5Slide the positive (red wire with fuse link (5))terminalringfromthe

printer power cable (6) onto the bolt (1).

6Slipasecond3/8”washer(7), then slip the vehicle positive battery cable

(4) onto the bolt.

7Thread the bolt assembly (described in steps 3 through 6) into the posi-

tive (+) battery terminal.

8Securely tighten the bolt (1), then the nut (2) installed in step 3 to se-

cure washers (7) and cables into place.

9Repeat steps 3–8 for the negative vehicle battery cable wire (black or

brown), hooking up the negative cable to the negative battery terminal.
