Figure 23 - RS232 serial port connections CAUTION: The serial connector on the MintDrive (X7) supports two serial channels, one RS232 and one RS485 / RS422. The serial cable with catalog number CBL001-501 must NOT be used with the MintDrive as this may result in damage to the unit. Please use serial cable CBL023-501 or see this section for wiring details.

The MintDrive has a full-duplex RS232 serial port with the following default configuration:

H57.6Kbaud H 1 start bit H 8 data bits H 1 stop bit H No parity

H Hardware handshaking lines (RS232) RTS and CTS must be connected

The MintDrive will transmit a line feed/carriage return (<LF><CR>) combination but only expects a carriage return (<CR>) from the host terminal. The RS232 connections are brought out onto a 9-pin male D-type connector (an identical pin configuration as a standard male 9-pin D-type connector, but RS485 / RS422 signals are also taken to the unused pins). The RS232 port is configured as a DTE (Data Terminal Equipment) unit so it is possible to operate the MintDrive with any DCE (Data Communications Equipment) or DTE equipment. Both the output and input circuitry are single ended and operate between ±12V. The port is capable of operation at up to 57.6Kbaud.
