RS-232 connections
The RS-232 serial port is connected to the serial port of a computer using a straight-
through RS-232 cable terminated with DB-9 connectors.
Do not use a null modem cable
.
The serial port uses the transmit (TXD), receive (RXD), and signal ground (GND) lines of
the RS-232 standard. It does not use the hardware handshaking lines, CTS and RTS.
shows the rear panel connector for the RS-232 interface, and
shows the pinout for the connector.
If your computer uses a DB-25 connector for the RS-232 interface, you will need a cable
or adapter with a DB-25 connector on one end and a DB-9 connector on the other, wired
straight through (not null modem).
