Keyboard Setup
The integrated cable/connector on the KU-007 is defined as COM1.
COM1 generally will be plugged into your printer’s serial port. Use the 25
to 9 pin converter if the printers serial port is a 25 pin connector. To
avoid any possible damage to the KU-007, please turn off the printers
power prior connecting the keyboard to the COM1 port on the printer.
The KU-007 gets its power from the printer through this cable from the
printer port. If the KU-007 does not turn on when the printer is powered
up, then the optional AC adapter may be required.

The open COM2 port on the KU-007 is used for downloading programs
(or data files) from your computer. Connect the serial cable to COM2 on
the KU-007. Then connect the other end to an open serial port on your
computer. Programs and data files can now be downloaded to the KU-
007 for label generation. After COM2 has been used to download your
programs from the computer, it can now be connected to an input
device such as a bar code scanner. To use COM2 as an input port, your
loaded program must be written to properly read data in from the COM2
port.
