RS232 SERIAL INTERFACE
Female DB9 connector
J1
1 DCD
2 TX During transmission, takes the values -VRS232 and +VRS232 depending on data
3 RX During reception, takes the values -VRS232 and +VRS232 depending on data
4 DSR
5 GND
6 DTR When +VRS232, device is power on
7 CTS
8 RTS When +VRS232, device is ready to receive data
9 VCC
Given the presence of the RS232 standard, logic value “0” corresponds to the voltage value +VRS232 (voltage value
between +3 Vdc and +15 Vdc) and logic value “1” corresponds to the voltage value -VRS232 (voltage value between -3
Vdc and -15 Vdc).
