SECTION I. GENERAL INFORMATION



l-l. INTRODUCTION. The Keithley Model 750 Printer is a medium speed, ink impression,
line printer designed for use with Keithley digital measuring instruments and other
digital instrumentation.

a. Printing Capabilities. The tlodel 750 records up to 18 columns of data per line.
Columns 3 through I8 print numeric data, while columns 1 and 2 of the printer are re-
served for measurement units and contain no numeric characters. Columns 3, 4, 5 can
print certain measurement units (see Table 3-5 on page 3-7). Columns 6 through IO and 12
through 15 contain a floating decimal point which can be printed to the right of any one
of the numeric data columns, without deleting numerical data in that umn. Either
adding machine roll paper (Z-1/4 inch width) or fan-fold paper can bf ;ed.

b. Accessory printer Input Interfaces are available for use with t thley digital mea-
suring instruments. The factory-wired interfaces are plug-to-plug cb,,, atible so 'that
installation is very simple to perform. All data is properly encoded and formatted for
printout of data, decimal point, range, and units of measurement (where available at the
digital output). See ACCESSORIES Section 4 for more detailed information regarding
accessory interfaces for Keithley instruments as well as for general purpose applications.

l-2. WARRANTY INFORMATION. The warranty is given in the Keithley general catalog. If
there is a need for service, contact your Keithley representative or authorized repair
facility as given in our catalog.

l-3. CHANGE NOTICE. Improvements or changes to the instruvent not incorporated into the
manual will be explained on separate instruction manual addenda sheets.


CAUTION
Since input Lo can float to 350 volts peak with respect to chassis ground, care
should be exercised when making connections to either I/O "A" or "BP. Turn off
power to all instruments c0nnectp.d before plug-in cards are installed or removed,
or cable connections are made. If I/O "B" is not used, make certain the cover
plate is installed to prevent the possibility of electrical shock.

SECTION 2. INITIAL PREPARATION



2-l. GENERAL. This section provides information needed for incoming inspection and
preparation for use.

2-2. INSPECTION. The Model 750 was carefully inspected both mechanically and electri-
cally before shipment. Upon receiving the instrument, check for any obvious damage
which may have occurred during transit. Report any damages to the shipping agent. To
verify the electrical specifications, follow the procedures in Section 5.

2-3. PREPARATION FOR USE.

a. How to Set the Line Switch. The rear panel LINE Switch should be set to the
appropriate nominal setting as shown in Table 2-l. For example, if the line voltage to
be used is 120 volts, set the LINE Switch to "117". If the line voltage to be used is
within 105 and llOV, then either range (100 V or 117 V) may be selected.

SECTION 3. OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS



3-l. GENERAL. This section provides information to operate the Model 750 with a variety
of Keithley and other digital measuring instruments. Information on specific models can
be found in the appropriate Interface manual.

3-2. HOW TO USE FRONT PANEL CONTROLS.

a. How to Apply Power. The POWER switch is a "push-push" switch. Depress to apply
power to the instrument. When the switch is released power is off. The Power Indicator
is lighted when power is on.

b. How to Feed Paper. The PAPER FEED Switch is a "momentary push" switch. In the
depressed position it advances papei through the printer mechanism. The switch is used
for loading paper tape or for advancing printed data past the cutting bar.

c. How to Set Printer to RUN Mode. The RUN pushbutton is a "push-push" switch.
Depress to allow the printer to be activated by a print command from either of two
sources:

I. Internal print interval.

2. External Source.

When the switch is released, the printer can be activated only by MANUAL PRINT.

d. How to Activate the Printer Manually. The MANUAL PRINT Switch is a "momentary
push" switch. Depress to activate a single line of data. If the switch is depressed
and held in this position, the printer will print data at a rate determined by the PRINT
INTERVAL control. Minimum interval is I second. The external source does not affect
the print interval when MANUAL PRINT is used.

e. How to Set Print Interval. The PRINT INTERVAL control is continuously adjustable
and sets the internal print Interval from a minimum of I ,second'to a maximum of IO
seconds (apprm. The PRINT INTERVAL 'contr,ol also has an EXTERNAL position. In
EXTERNAL the print interval is determined by external print commands.

3-3. HOW TO OPERATE THE PRINTER.

a. Release POWER Switch (power off).

b. Release RUN Switch (i.e., set to STANDBY mode).

c. Check LINE switch setting as in paragraph 2-3a.
d. Install Model 7501 Printer Input Interface Plug-In Card and/or other accessory
plug-in card as appropriate.

e. Set PRINT INTERVAL control to the appropriate settings.

I. If an external print interval is to be used, set the PRINT INTERVAL control to
EXT.
2. If the internal print interval is to be used, set the PRINT INTERVAL control to
the desired~ position.

f. Connect the line cord.

4. Depress the POWER Switch. Power indicator should be lighted.

h. 'Check operation of the Model 750 in STANDBY mode. (Depress MANUAL PRINT switch
momentarily to cause the Model 750 to print one line.)

i. Depress RUN. This action will cause the Model 750 to initiate printing at inter-
vals determined by the position off the PRINT INTERVAL control.

j. To halt further printing, release RUN switch.

k. To advance paper through the print mechanism, depress PAPER FEED.

1. Tear off the printed information by pulling the paper tape along the "cutting bar".

3-4. INTERFACING THROUGH I/O "A".

a. General. The Model 750 provides a 50-pin Card-edge connector for I/O "A". This
connector may be used with Model 7501 or Model 7502 Plug-In Cards. Special interfacing
situations where non-Keithley instruments are used may require custom-designed interface
circuitry. Contact your Keithley representative for more information on availability of
interfaces. Do not install Model 7503 or 7504 cards into I/O "A".

b. Input Signals at I/O "A".

I. Data Columns. (Pins l-40) Each data column requires a parallel entry, 4-bit
binary coded decimal (BCD) input. The Model 750 is factory wired for "positive true".
The Model 750 may be altered by the user to permit "low true" logic by removing jumper
WlOl shown in Figure 37. Floating decima.l points are low true only. Sinking current
for Logic IW' is 3.2 milliamperes per line. These lines are identified as follows:
l-l = column I, bit I
l-2 = column I, bit 2 Typical for columns
l-4 = column I, bit 4 I through IO
l-8 = column I, bit 8

2. Floating decimal lines (m. This tnput requires a Logic "0" to cause a decimal
point to be printed in the specified column. This input has a sink current rating of
I.6 milliamperes. The lines are coded as follows:

(Pin 43) IO-DP = decimal point in column IO
(Pin 47) g-DP = decimal point in column 9
(Pin 45) 8-DP = decimal point in column 8
[;jn z;i 7-DP = decimal point in column i
In 6-DP = decimal point in column

4. EXTERNAL PRINT Command (Pin 42). An input transition from Logic "0" to Logic
"I" causes a print command in the Model 750. Sinking current for Logic "0" is 4.2
milliamperes. See Figure 7 for timing considerations.

3. RED. (Pin 44) This input requires a Logic "0" to cause the Model 750 to print
in "red". This feature may be used to indicate an overload condition on the digital
measurin,g instrument. The RED input is level sensitive with a minimum duration of 25
milliseconds at Logic "0" from the start of PRINT cycle. See Figure 8 for timing
considerations. Sinking current for Logic "0" is 2.6 milliamperes.
