6.1.8 RS-232 Connections
The DB-9 connector located on the front panel of each gateway Module is an RS-232 serial port.
The connector is employed to provide system trace and diagnostic routines for the individual
Modules. The iPECS UCP server modules have one such port, which may be assigned for the
desired function (SMDR, ACD, etc.). Refer to the iPECS UCP Admin & Programming Manual.
The RS-232 ports of the Modules and PSU are set-up for 8-bits, no parity, and one (1) stop bit
running at 115,200 bps. To modify the speed and other settings, refer to the iPECS UCP Admin
& Programming Manual.
The RS-232 connectors for gateway Modules, ES8G/ES8GP and UCP modules are terminated in
a Data Communications Equipment (DCE) configuration as displayed in Figure 6.1.8-1. The RS-
232 connector in the PSU is terminated in a Data Terminal Equipment (DTE) configuration. Use a
cable pre-terminated with DB-9 connectors to connect an appropriate device (terminal, printer,
etc.) to the Module.
