8  Communication Protocol 

RS-232 communication between the 

FC-4002

 and the PC is performed using 

this protocol (VER-0.1), which uses four bytes of information, and data is at 

9600 baud, no parity, 8 data bits and 1 stop bit. 
The controller and the machine should be connected via a null-modem 

connection, that is, if using a DB-9 port, connect PIN 5 of the PC to PIN 5 of 

the machine, cross PINs 2 and 3, that is, connect PIN 2 of the PC to PIN 3 of 

the machine, and connect PIN 3 of the PC to PIN 2 of the machine. On the PC 

side, short PINs 4 and 6, and short PINs 1, 7 and 8. This protocol 

complements Kramer’s “Protocol 2000” (Kramer’s switcher protocol), that is, 

the two protocols can co-exist without disturbing one another (according to 

Protocol 2000’s definitions, the 

FC-4002

 would be machine number 24).
