Connections Use a 9-pin (DB9) to 9-pin parallel cable to connect the interface card to the serial port on the host computer. If you need to use a 25-pin connector (DB25) on the host interface, ensure the correct connections are made by referring Table 2.7. If the proper cables are not available and you need to change the transmit/receive pin configuration, see “Transmit / Receive Pin Selection”.

Transmit / The RS-232 interface can use either pin 2 or pin 3 of the RS-232 connector to Receive Pin transmit or receive data. You can set the pin orientation you want by changing Selection the position of the J10 jumper on the interface PCB. Table 2.8, “Jumper Settings for Transmit/Receive Pin Selection” shows the transmit/receive pin selection on

the RS-232 connector in relation to the settings of the J10 jumper. See Figure 2.3, “RS-232 Interface PCB” on page 18 to locate jumper J10.
