Introduction
1.8 Serial Interface Connections
The serial device can be RS-232 or RS-485/422 and the connections can be screw terminals
or RJ-45 connector. This section shows several practical methods for making the hardware
connections. The following diagrams show
typical interface cables for the RS-232 Serial
interface and the Ethernet interface.
1.8.1 9-Pin RS-232 to Serial RJ-45
This connection assumes you are connecting a typical PC (COM1) to the DSTni-XPress DR
through the serial RJ-45 connector. A pinout table and cable diagram are included.
