RS232 SERIAL INTERFACE
Female DB9 connector
J1
1 DTR
2 TX
During transmission, takes the values -VRS232 and +VRS232 depending on data.
3 RX
During reception, takes the values -VRS232 and +VRS232 depending on data.
4 n.c.
5 GND
6 DTR
When +VRS232, device is power on.
7 n.c.
8 RTS-O
When +VRS232, device is ready to receive data.
9 n.c.
NOTES:
Given the presence of the RS232 standard, logic value “0” is associated with voltage value +VRS232 (corresponds
to a voltage level of b3Vdc and +15Vdc) and logic value “1” is associated with voltage value -VRS232 (cor-
responds to a voltage level of between -3Vdc and -15Vdc).
