RS-232 Pinout and Baudrate Settings

The RS-232 port on the HD800V2 is the same format, and pinout, as a PC modem, and uses the same 
type of cable as a standard serial modem would, which is a standard straight through cable. Do not use 
a cable that is marked as a “Null Modem” cable.

The HD800V2 can also be used with USB to RS-232 conversion cables, these are all typically straight 
through cables. 

(Be sure to install any drivers that come with the USB to RS-232 cable you are using.)

The RS-232 port is a female type DE-9 connector (sometimes mistakenly referred to as a DB-9 con-
nector) with the following pinout:
