RS-232 Connection (Terminal Use)
The RS-232 connector provides a female DB-25 terminal connection (wired as a DCE interface), which is
used for terminal access to the TRACER 4106/4206 system. The RS-232 port provides the following
functions:
• Accepts EIA-232 input from a PC or terminal for controlling the TRACER 4106/4206 system
• Operates at 9600 bps
Tab le 6 on page 28 shows the pinout. Wiring diagrams for connecting to the RS-232 connector (for
various applications) are provided following the pinout.
