3.2 Setting the RS-232 Interface
In order for the interface converter to operate properly, the RS-232 interface
must be set for either DCE or DTE operation. This can be done by setting the
push-on jumpers located on W1 (see Figure 3-2). Each pin of the RS-232
interface on the unit must be set either DCE or DTE, opposite to the
DCE/DTE status of the equipment you intend to connect to the RS-232 side
of the converter. Simply insert the push-on jumper (strap) for each pin onto
the header pins for either the DCE or DTE option. The factory-default
configuration of the RS-232 interface is set DCE.
