. The interface allows you to access the ROC800 with a
direct connection using ROCLINK 800 software to configure and
transfer stored data.
The LOI uses the Local Port in ROCLINK 800 software.
The LOI terminal (RJ-45) on the CPU provides wiring access to a built-
in EIA-232 (RS-232) serial interface, which is capable of 57.6K baud
operation. The RJ-45 connector pin uses the data terminal equipment
(DTE) in the IEEE standard.
The LOI port supports ROC Plus and Modbus protocol communication.
The LOI also supports the log-on security feature of the ROC800 if you
have enabled the Security on LOI in the ROCLINK 800 software.
Table 5-3 shows the signal routing of the CPU connections. Figure 5-3
shows the RJ-45 pin out.

Originated by the ROC800 Data Terminal Equipment (DTE) to instruct
the Data Communication Equipment (DCE) to set up a connection.
DTE is running and ready to communicate.

The LOI terminal requires you to install a D-Sub 9 pin (F) to RJ-45
modular converter between the ROC800 and PC. Refer to Table 5-4.
