not
standardized.

Notes: The RS·232C I/F for
the
Programmer uses communi·
cation interface
ICs
equivalent
to
8251A. Data may
be
sent
only with the RTS signal
on;
(otherwise,
the
8251A
provides hardware inhibition.) Both send and
receive are enabled by
the
turned on DTR signal. If
this signal
is
off,
"E·11"
is
displayed
on
the
LED
panel, and the Programmer waits for
the
DTR
to
be
turned on.
