
All serial ports are 3.3V TTL. When using a SightLine adapter board with a 3-pin connector, use the
CAB-03xx for a breakout to either a pigtail, Molex-to-Molex, or DB-9 connector.

Serial Port 5 is internal use only.

6.2.1 Serial Port Speed and Data Limits
The serial ports are controlled over an I
2
C bus using and I
2
C to serial bridge chip. The I
2
C bus default
speed is 400kHz. The 4000 I
2
C bus speed can be changed from the default 400 kHz to 1 MHz to support
faster baud rates (921K) not supported by default. It is possible to increase the I
2
C bus speed to 1MHz
to allow support of 921K baud. See EAN-GPIO-and-I2C for guidance on setting the I
2
C bus speed.

CAUTION: The I
2
C bus is only shared by a small number of peripherals on the 4000-OEM. Setting I
2
C to 1MHz can
cause system unitability or crashes.
The following Camera I/F boards are known to be incompatible with 1MHz clock:
•
SLA-3000-HDSDI (Rev C or older. Rev C1 is compatible)
•
SLA-3000-HDMI
•
SLA-3000-AB
•
SLA-3000-FPC with Airborne camera
•
SLA-3000-FPC with SLA-FPC-LI board
•
Some custom I/F boards

CAUTION: Some boards are checked by software and will not switch to 1MHz. Other boards cannot be checked by
software. It is the responsibility of the user to avoid incompatibilities and resulting system crashes.
