In the pass-through connection, data from the computer is first stored in the receive buffer of the display, and
then processed sequentially to only send data for the printer to the printer. Data from the printer is sent
directly to the computer, without passing through the display.
•
Data for the customer display and that for the printer are distinguished by the select peripheral device com-
mand.
•
Settings for communication must be the same for all of the computer, printer, and customer display.
