Specifications

15.2.9RS-232 Port

The unit is equipped with an RS-232 port for connecting a terminal or PC. See Figure 28 for the port’s location.

See 12.1 - Using the RS-232 Port for instructions on using a PC terminal with the unit.

15.2.10Terminal Port Connections

The system has an asynchronous serial port configured as Data Terminal Equipment for terminal access only (half duplex). The CPU services the terminal port with no handshaking. The serial port conforms to RS-232 levels with a data format of 9600 Baud, 1 start bit, 8 data bits, and no parity bits. The serial port is 1000VDC isolated (non-SELV) and ESD protected to 15kV air discharge. The con- nector is a 6 Pin MTA plug with connections shown below.
