3.1 RS-232C Interface Specifications

[ 1 ] Interface Connector and Pin Assignment

The BHT-7000 has a direct-connect interface port which is connectable to the 3-pole

mini stereo plug (ø2.5 mm or 0.1") and supports a subset of the RS-232C interface as

shown below.

Using a direct-connect interface cable having the mini stereo plugs makes it possible

to connect the BHT-7000 to a host computer (or another BHT-7000) directly without

any routing through the CU-7000.

1 -3V max. -5V max.

The direct-connect interface port is not designed to stand frequent connecting/

disconnecting. Do not plug and unplug basically more than one time a day;

otherwise, the service life of the plug will shorten. To connect the BHT-7000 to a

host computer having no IR port (or another BHT-7000) frequently, use the CU-

7000.

Allow the specified signals only to enter the direct-connect interface port. Entry of

other signals will result in a failure or malfunction of the BHT-7000.
