Control Signal Specification
TTL Level UART Interface
The module communicates to a host processor via a TTL logic level UART serial port or
via a USB port. Both ports are accessed on the 15-pin
Digital/Power Connector
. The TTL
logic level UART supports complete functionality. The USB port supports complete
functionality except the lowest power operational mode.
Note
Power Consumption
specifications apply to control via the TTL UART.
