System Implementation
The four data channels can be configured individually to use any of the supported formats,
by using the appropriate Format Select pin (21, 23, 24, 26) as identified in the table.
Format Select pin:
Floating for RS-422 or TTL
Tied to any GND pin for RS-232
Tied to +12 VDC bias (pin #10) for RS-485
At the breakout panel, each data channel is presented on a separate DB9 connector, with
the following pinout
