Cable Wiring
The cable wiring to connect the Concert XR series to your control system
will depend on the RS232 output connection on the controller. Make certain
that you wire the Transmit Data output on the serial controller to the Receive
Data on the Concert XR series and vice versa on the Receive Data line on the
controller system. Connect the signal grounds on the control system and the
Concert XR series together. The RS232 connection on the Concert XR series is a
DB-9 Male connector, labeled Control and is wired as follows:
Pin 2 Receive Data (RXD)
Pin 3 Transmit Date (TXD)
Pin 5 Ground
To connect the Concert XR series to a standard PC serial com port; wire the
cable in a ‘null modem’ arrangement using the appropriate serial cable.
