Serial I/O Connectors
You can attach a variety of pointing devices (such as a
mouse or trackball), or peripheral devices to the Serial
Input/Output (SIO) ports on the B132L/B160L work-
station. Peripheral devices include printers, plotters,
modems, and scanners. Consult the documentation
that accompanies each pointing or peripheral device
for specific information concerning its use.
The SIO ports are programmable. You can set func-
tions such as bit rate, character length, parity, and stop
bits. The SIO ports are used as an interface for serial
asynchronous devices to the CPU. The ports operate at
up to a 460.8K baud rate.
Table 2 shows the SIO connector pin listings. The
serial connectors are 9-pin D-sub connectors. Signal
names are those specified in the EIA RS-232 standard.
