**Pin 9 need not be present in your RS232C cable

***Pins 15 and 17 are necessary only for synchronous operation

****Also known as DTR (Data Terminal Ready)

The computer or terminal should be supplied with a cable terminated with a Cinch DB25P (or equivalent) connector mounted in a Cinch DB51226-1 (or equivalent) hood assembly as specified by the EIA RS232C standard.

Functional Description of RS232C Signals:

Transmitted Data - Pin 2, SD (BA)

Direction: to modem

Signals on this circuit are generated by the customer's terminal and transferred to the transmitter of the Series II Modem. A positive signal is a space (binary 0) and a negative signal is a mark (binary 1). The transmitting terminal should hold this line in the marking state when no data is being transmitted, including intervals between characters or words. The TRANSMIT (XMT) LED indicates the status of this circuit.

Received Data - Pin 3, RD (BB)

Direction: from modem

The lead is the data output of the modem. Data signals received from the remote modem are presented on this line. When no carrier signal is being received (pin 8 negative), this line will be forced into a marking condition. The RECEIVE (RCV) LED indicates the status of this signal.

Request To Send - Pin 4, RTS (CA)

Direction: to modem

The RTS signal indicates to the modem that the computer or terminal has data that it wants to transmit.
