LaserSpeed 8000-3 Instruction Handbook

Interfacing with the LS8000-3

Breakout Assembly Pinouts

The pinouts for the breakout assembly connectors are listed below. Because the LaserSpeed cable connects directly to the DB25/DB37 cable, the pinout for this connector is identical to the gauge cable pinout. See the Connecting to Outputs section for details.

RS-232 Connector

This Female DB9 connector can be connected to any PC serial port using a straight-through serial cable with a male connector on one end and a female connector on the other end. A null modem is not required.

RS-422 Connector

This Male DB9 connector can be connected to an RS-422 input on a PLC, or an RS-422 converter connected to a PC. Because there is no standard pinout for RS-422, you may wish to rewire this terminal block to match your cable.
