2.4 RS232 Console Port Wiring
The RS232 port is used for configuring the RS910. A straight-through serial cable with a DB-9
connector is required. There is no need to crossover the TxD and RxD signals from the PC side
since this has been done internally as is shown in the figure below.

exceed 2m (6.5 feet). Pins 1,4,6 are connected internally, and pins 7, 8 are connected internally.
