Revision C 12/09
A798-PG00001C
Transmit peripheral device status (RS-232C printers only)
ASCII ESC u 0
Hexadecimal 1B 75 0
Decimal 27 117 0
Value of returned byte:
Bit 0 Bit 1
1 = Drawer 1 Closed 1 = Drawer 2 Closed
0 = Drawer 1 Open 0 = Drawer 2 Open
Bits 2–7 are not used.
Transmits current status of the cash drawers. One byte is sent to the host computer. In DTR/DSR protocol, the printer waits
for DSR = SPACE. If a drawer is not connected, the status will indicate it is closed.
Exceptions
Unlike the A793, that had a dedicated connector and resultant dedicated status reporting for each cash drawer, the A798
has a single connector that shares data reporting from either cash drawer. When either cash drawer is open, an open status
is reported by the printer.
