IDENTIFYING THE SERIAL CARD AND JUMPERS

The serial card is the card with the port connectors. Its jumpers (JP) are shown in the diagram below.

To change the serial port configuration, set jumpers on the serial card for each port as illustrated in the 
following sections.

NOTE: JP7 must remain in its default position as shown above. Other positions are reserved for future use.

CONFIGURING COM PORT 0

The default mode for COM0 is RS-232, and the wiring diagram is 
shown in 

step 3 on page 6

. Pinouts are also shown below. Jumper 

groups 2 and 4 control COM0. Default jumper settings are shown in 
the diagram at right. (Jumpers F and G in JP2 are shown for 
reference but grayed out, as they do not affect COM0.)

COM0 can also be configured for RS-485 two- or four-wire or for use 
with a modem. See the following page for details.
