FMI stands for: Forgien Machine Interface Do the UIC conveyors have board position sensors? If not you will have to add them to run Smema protocol. Get a copy of the SMEMA Mechanical Equipment Interface Standard. Smema Lafayette Hill PA 215 825-1008 If the conveyors do not support Smema Dek may be able to supply an interface board to convert the printer to UIC protocol.

Anyone know how to get these two together. So far no luck here. Any help would be much appreciated.
