The interface of COM-A port is a DB9/M needle connector and is used for data communication or to
connect the gas monitor module. The Signal Definition of the port is DTE.
Pin # Signal Name Signal Description
2 RXD RS232 Receive Data, input of the machine.
3 TXD RS232 Transmit Data, output of the machine.
5 GND Signal Ground / Common
9 5V DC5V power, provide output power in gas monitor module, <200mA.
In data communication, this pin and the RI output signal of RS232C
indicates electrical compliance.
Other NC Not connected.
The interface of COM B port is a DB9/M hole connector and is used for data communication. The
Signal Definition of the port is DCE.
Pin # Signal Name Signal Description
