Equinox ESP-2 MI Serial Hub Installation Guide
The lower left area of the front panel contains two electrical connectors. You may use one of
these, but not both. For more information, see
Electrical
.
The LAN connector is used with a 10BaseT or 100BaseT LAN interface cable. A CAT 5 cable
is required for 100BaseT operation.
The two PORTS connectors are standard DB-9 DTE ports in RS-232 mode. The unit ships
with RS-232 mode enabled for both ports.
Table 2 describes the LEDs and buttons on the front panel.

Interfaces
Each port supports the standard RS-232 DTE serial signals via a male DB-9 connector, with the
exception of RI. Each port can be configured independently to support the following interfaces:
•
RS-232 DTE signaling (default)
• RS-422
signaling
•
RS-485 2-wire half duplex (HD) signaling
Internal jumpers are used to select the signaling for each port. For more information, see
Changing the Interface Settings
.
A software configurable option lets you enable/disable a one port option. When enabled, only
port 1 is used. This option can be set during driver installation.
When RS-485 HD signalling is set via internal jumpers, software-configurable modes can
be set to control the enabling/disabling of the transmitter and receiver. The choices are RTS
(Request to Send) control mode or ADDC (Automatic Data Detection Control) mode.
•
In RTS mode, the transmitter is enabled and the receiver is disabled when RTS is true.
The transmitter is disabled and the receiver is enabled when RTS is false.
•
In ADDC mode, the transmitter is enabled and the receiver is disabled when a space
(zero) bit is sent. The transmitter is disabled and the receiver is enabled when a mark
(one) bit is set. This mode allows rapid turnaround and release of the data pair.
The RS-485 transfer mode can be specified during driver installation or through the web interface.
