The JRS232 connector provides the PMAC2-PC with the ability to communicate serially with an
RS232 port. This connector cannot be used for daisychain communication interconnection of
multiple PMACs, although it can be used to share servo and phase clocks for synchronicity. The
J5A RS-422 interface is required for daisychain communication.
Jumpers E17 and E18 must connect pins 1 and 2 to use this port for serial communications.
Note 1: If communicating to PMAC2 over this connector with a "modem" style terminal emulator
such as Microsoft Windows Terminal, line 1 should not be connected.
Note 2: SERVO and PHASE are outputs if jumper E1 is OFF; they are inputs if jumper E1 is ON.
