3.10 MAIN SERIAL INTERFACE
The optocoupled main serial interface is compatible with the following electrical standards:
 RS232
 RS422 full-duplex
3.10.1 RS232 Interface
The main serial interface is used for communication with the Host computer and allows
transmission of code data.
It is always advisable to use shielded cables. The overall maximum cable length must be
less than 15 m (49.2 ft).
The following positions of the CBX510 spring clamp connector (row 4) are used for RS232
interface connection:
Name
Function
SGND
Signal ground (isolated)
TX
Transmit
RTS
Request to send
RX
Receive
CTS
Clear to send
As suggested above, the cable shield should be connected in the ‘Shield’ position.
The RTS and CTS signals control data transmission and synchronize the connected devices.
If the RTS/CTS hardware protocol is enabled, the scanner activates the RTS output to
indicate a message can be transmitted. The Host must activate the CTS input to enable the
transmission.
IMPORTANT: RTS/CTS lines should only be connected if the Main serial
port handshaking is configure for Hardware (RTS/CTS) (see section 4.5.4).
