Serial Interface ASC1
EGS5 offers a 4-wire unbalanced, asynchronous modem interface ASC1 conforming to ITU-T
V.24 protocol DCE signalling. The electrical characteristics do not comply with ITU-T V.28. The
significant levels are 0V (for low data bit or active state) and 2.9V (for high data bit or inactive
state). For electrical characteristics please refer to
.
EGS5 is designed for use as a DCE. Based on the conventions for DCE-DTE connections it
communicates with the customer application (DTE) using the following signals:
•
Port TXD @ application sends data to module’s TXD1 signal line
•
Port RXD @ application receives data from the module’s RXD1 signal line

Features
•
Includes only the data lines TXD1 and RXD1 plus RTS1 and CTS1 for hardware hand-
shake.
•
On ASC1 no RING line is available. The indication of URCs on the second interface
depends on the settings made with the AT^SCFG command. For details refer to
•
Configured for 8 data bits, no parity and 1 or 2 stop bits.
•
ASC1 can be operated at fixed bit rates from 300 bps to 921600 bps. Autobauding is not
supported on ASC1.
•
Supports RTS1/CTS1 hardware flow control and XON/XOFF software flow control.
