RPC-2 MD01 AND RPC-2 RDR

LOCAL ACCESS

The RPC-2 MD01 and RPC-2 RDR have an

USING THE EIA-232

RJ-45 port for connecting to a local EIA-232

SERIAL CONNECTION

device, such as a computer terminal or

 

external modem. Most serial computers do

 

not have RJ-45 connections; therefore, an

 

adapter is provided with this unit to convert

 

from a DE-9 connector to an RJ-45

 

connector (BayTech Part No. 9FRJ45PC-1).

 

If you are connecting to a modem, use a

 

modem adapter (BayTech Part No.

 

25MRJ45MD-8).

 

BayTech also manufactures a

 

computer/terminal adapter (BayTech Part

 

No. 25FRJ45PC-1) for converting from a

 

DB-25 connector to an RJ-45 connector. If

 

your computer does have an RJ-45

 

connection, but the pin signals are different

 

from those described for BayTech on Page

 

16 of this manual, it is possible for BayTech

 

to customize an adapter for you. If you

 

require a different adapter than the one

 

supplied with this unit, contact one of

 

BayTech’s Applications Engineers.

 

Using the 9FRJ45PC-1 adapter (or other

 

applicable adapter) and the RJ08X007

 

crossed cable, connect the serial port of your

 

computer to the RJ-45 port labeled “EIA-

 

232” on the back of your RPC unit.

 

Load serial port communications software.

 

Configure host terminal’s serial

 

communications parameters to match the

 

RPC. RPC factory serial communications
