4.4 Remote control and programming:

The POS-002’s active tracking can be enabled/disabled, and its operation parameters
changed, via remote control. While tracking is disabled, the POS-002 remains in the
setting at which it was disabled.

4.4.1 RS-232

Connection

The RS-232 serial interface port allows the user to remote control the POS-002 by
sending ASCII commands. The LabView test program provided with the POS-002 shows
a programming example.

The POS-002’s RS-232 communication pins are located next to its power pins (see
Figure 4 and Table 1).

Communication pins on POS-002:
PIN5: GND
PIN6: RXD
PIN7: TXD

Connect the communication pins to the RS-232 port of a computer or other control signal
source (see Figure 6 for correspondence between the POS-002 communication pins and
the DB9 connector on the connection cable). The POS-002 comes with two connection
cables. One has a 10-pin connector on one side to connect to the POS-002. On the other
side of that cable are labeled wires for the power and external signal connections, and a
3-pin connector to connect to the RS-232 connection cable. The RS-232 connection cable
has a matching 3-pin connector on one side to connect to the first cable, and a DB9
connector on the other side to connect to the RS-232 port of a computer. The pin
correspondence for the DB9 connector is shown below, where the numbers in
parentheses are the corresponding pin numbers on the POS-002.
