Rev A 11
The RS-232 port is setup as a Data Circuit-terminating Equipment (DCE) port. When connecting to a
Personal Computer (PC) a straight one-to-one cable should be used. A null modem is NOT needed. The
settings and pinout diagram for this port can be found below.

2.4.3 Fiber-Optic Serial Communication
The Fiber-Optic port is a serial communications bus. All commands and queries through this port must be
terminated with a Line Feed character. When a valid query is received, it is processed and the result is
immediately transmitted back over the Fiber-Optic interface. This port is designed to time-out if there is no
activity on the bus for more than 5 seconds. At this time the internal buffer is cleared and a
TIMEOUT_ERROR message followed by a Line Feed is sent out from this port.
The baud rate for the Fiber-Optic Serial port is user selectable from the RS-232/Fiber-Optic Serial Baud Rate
selection screen. To get there from the Main Menu, touch the User menu button followed by the I/O menu
button and finally the Serial menu button. A thin black outline indicates the present baud rate selection.
When the back button is pushed the baud rate selection is stored to non-volatile memory. Therefore, if power
is lost prior to hitting the back button any baud rate selection changes will be lost. The default baud rate is
19200.
NOTE: This baud rate setting is shared by both the Fiber-Optic serial port and the RS-232 port.
The Fiber-Optic port provides the user with the ability to optically isolate the controlling PC from the
600A400. This can be useful in an environment where RF/Microwave energy could be coupled onto a
connection to one of the “wired” communications ports and fed back to the controlling PC.
Both optical connections (TX and RX) are optimized to work with light at a wavelength of 820nm. For more
detailed specifications on this port, consult the Avago HFBR series datasheet found at www.avagotech.com .
