COM2 (RS-485, 15-pin Female D-sub Connector)
–
RX7i CPU/CRU Models
This port does not 5Vdc volts, therefore RS-485 to RS-232 conversion requires a converter that
is self-powered. It does not support the RS-485 to RS-232 adapter IC690ACC901.
This is a DCE port that allows a simple straight-through cable to connect with a standard AT-style
RS-232 port.

To provide termination using the built-in 120
Ω
resistor, install a jumper between pins 9 and 10.
