2.1 Starting the kitCON using a Monitor program
•
Use of the Monitor program requires a kitCON-161CS/JC/JI and
an IBM-PC or a compatible system, as well as an unregulated
power supply for 8 V= - 12 V= /500 mA. Typically, all jumpers for
configuring the kitCON-161CS/JC/JI have been correctly set upon
delivery of the board.
•
Connect your Host-PC (COM1 or COM2) to the DB9-socket P1
on the kitCON-161CS/JC/JI using a serial cable as shown below.

TxD PIN 3 to RxD PIN 3
GND PIN 5 to GND PIN 5
•
No Hardware-Handshake-Line is required to invoke communica-
tion between the kitCON-161CS/JC/JI and the Host-PC, as the
firmware contains a transmission protocol to ensure fault-free data
transmission between the PC and the kitCON-161CS/JC/JI.
