VS-4228 - Connecting the VS-4228 11
4.1 Connecting a PC or Controller to the RS-232 Port
You can connect to the unit via a crossed RS-232 connection, using for example,
a PC. A crossed cable or null-modem is required as shown in method A and B
respectively. If a shielded cable is used, connect the shield to pin 5.
Method A ( Figure 6 )
—Connect the RS-232 9-pin D-sub port on the unit via a
crossed cable (only pin 2 to pin 3 , pin 3 to pin 2 , and pin 5 to pin 5 need be
connected) to the RS-232 9-pin D-sub port on the PC.
Note: There is no need to connect any other pins.

Hardware flow control is not required for this unit. In the rare case where a
controller requires hardware flow control, short pin 1 to 7 and 8, and pin 4 to 6 on
the controller side.
Method B ( Figure 7 )
—Connect the RS-232 9-pin D-sub port on the unit via a
straight (flat) cable to the null-modem adapter, and connect the null-modem
adapter to the RS-232 9-pin D-sub port on the PC. The straight cable usually
contains all nine wires for a full connection of the D-sub connector. Because the
null-modem adapter (which already includes the flow control jumpering described
in Method A above) only requires pins 2, 3 and 5 to be connected, you are free to
decide whether to connect only these 3 pins or all 9 pins.
