RS-232 Communication Requirements
For instrument communication, the instrument needs to be connected to the RS-
232 (COM Port) of the user’s PC via an RS232/RS485 converter. The cable
required is a DB9 Male/Female Pass-Thru cable.
The pin out is designed to interface directly with an IBM PC or compatible
computer, using a straight through cable.
The RS-232C configuration is fixed as follows:
Baud rate=19200bps; Data bits=8; Stop bits=1; Parity=NONE; Flow
control=xON / xOFF
