3.1 Serial Port Cable Connections: Config/Debug and Port 0

This section contains information on the cable and pin assignments for the

ProLinx Communication Gateway module application serial ports (RS-

232/422/485).

The module will come with one to five serial ports, depending on the

configuration purchased. In all cases, the protocol serial ports will have the same

pin-outs.

Each serial port is a Mini-DIN physical connection. A 6-inch 'Mini-DIN to DB-9M'

cable is provided for each active protocol port. The DB-9M provides connections

for RS-232, RS-422 and RS-485, as well as for the Debug port. The diagrams in

the following topics detail the pin assignments for several possible physical

connections.

The relationship between the port labeling on the front of the ProLinx module and

the application is as follows:

3.2 Cable Connections

The application ports on the S3964R module support RS-232, RS-422, and RS-

485 interfaces. Please inspect the module to ensure that the jumpers are set

correctly to correspond with the type of interface you are using.

Note: When using RS-232 with radio modem applications, some radios or modems require

hardware handshaking (control and monitoring of modem signal lines). Enable this in the

configuration of the module by setting the UseCTS parameter to 1.
