Wire 3: TX signal from AlphaCom XL back to the serial logprinter from the control panel. This is not a
„real‟ transmit data signal, but only a „high‟ indication, that the serial hardwarelink is established. For some
control panels (like the Galaxy productline) this signal is necessary.
Wire 5: RX signal from the serial logprinter to the AlphaCom XL. Via this wire, the serial messages are
received at the AlphaCom XL. Normally this wire will be connected to the transmit data of the logprinter
output.
Wire 9: ground connection.
RS-232 connector for (incoming) messages from logprinter
(serial port 3)
