RCX C-Link Series Pinouts
EDT, Inc. 2011 June 29 17
Table 8 shows the pinout and how the standard firmware uses each wire.
Cable assembly – Lemo to female DB9 RS232
The female DB9 (EDT part #016-02445) supports integrated CMOS +3.3 V to RS232 level converters on a
small circuit board inside the DB9 connector shell.
This cable is designed to plug in directly to a host computer serial port. The cable offers an auxiliary UART
connection over the fiber, in addition to the UART normally associated with the Camera Link standard. This
auxiliary UART can be used, for example, to control the camera’s pan and zoom servo motors from the host
at 19.2 KBaud or less. Alternatively, it can be used for other low bandwidth signals.
Unlike the DB9 in the male assembly, this DB9 does not supply power to the extender. Instead, a red wire
(power) and a black wire (ground), both 24 inches long, are left loose so you can hook up your own power
source. The required power is 4.75 to 18 V DC.
Table 9 shows the pinout and how the standard firmware (in
rgb11.rcx
) uses each wire. DB9 pins 1, 4, and
6 are wired together and unconnected, 7 and 8 also are wired together, and 9 also is unconnected; these
signals are not otherwise used.

Comments
– – 1 [unused] –
All five CMOS 3.3 V
signals go to FPGA I/O
3.3V pins using series
100-ohm resistors.
Custom firmware can be
used to configure these
pins as input or output.
