2.4 RS232 Console Port Wiring

The RS232 port is used for configuring the RS910W. A straight-through serial cable with a DB-9 connector is required. There is no need to crossover the TxD and RxD signals from the PC side since this has been done internally as is shown in the figure below.

Pin	Signal
1	Internal Connection
2	Transmit Data
3	Receive Data
4	Internal Connection
5	Ground
6	Internal Connection
7	Internal Connection
8	Internal Connection
9	No Connection

Figure 8 - RS232 Female DCE pin-out

NOTE: This port is not intended to be a permanent connection and the cable length should not exceed 2m (6.5 feet). Pins 1,4,6 are connected internally, and pins 7, 8 are connected internally.
