Program Port Connections and Wiring

The Integrated Controllers are equipped with one Program port located on the rear of the unit. Use an RS232 programming cable to connect the Program port to your PC's COM port, this connection provides communication with the NetLinx Integrated Controller. Then you can download NetLinx programs to this on-board Master using the NetLinx Studio 2.2 software program. Refer to the NetLinx Studio instruction manual for programming instructions.

The following table shows the rear panel Program Port connector (male), pinouts, and signals.
