4.1 Configuring and Connecting the Instrument
125
Connecting the RS-232C Cable
Recommended cable: Model 9637 RS-232C Cable (9pin-9pin/1.8 m crossover cable)
The I/O connector is a DTE (Data Terminal Equipment) configuration.
Pin number 2, 3, 5, 7, and 8 are used in the instrument. The other pins are not used.
• When connecting the instrument to a controller (DTE), use a cross cable that satisfies the specifications of
the instrument’s connector and the controller’s connector.
• When using a USB-serial cable, you may need a gender converter and a straight-cross converter. Obtain
models that satisfy the specifications for the instrument’s connector and the USB-serial cable’s connector.

1 Connect the RS-232C cable to the instrument’s
RS-232C connector.
Be sure to secure it in place with the screws.
2 Set the controller’s communications protocol so
that it is the same as the instrument’s settings.
Configure the controller’s settings as follows:
• Start-stop synchronization
• Communication Speed: 9,600 bps/ 38,400 bps
(Use the same setting as the instrument.)
• Stop bit: 1 bits
• Data Bits: 8 bits
• Parity: None
• Flow control: None
