Serial Interconnections
A-4 User’s Manual
A
The MVME162 conforms to EIA-232-D specifications. Note that although the
EIA-232-D standard recommends the use of short interconnection cables not
more than 50 feet (15m) in length, longer cables are permissible provided the
total load capacitance measured at the interface point and including signal
terminator does not exceed 2500pF.
EIA-530 Connections
The EIA-530 interface complements the EIA-232-D interface in function. The
EIA-530 standard defines the mechanical aspects of this interface, which is
used for transmission of serial binary data, both synchronous and
asynchronous. It is adaptable to balanced (double-ended) as well as
unbalanced (single-ended) signaling and offers the possibility of higher data
rates than EIA-232-D with the same DB25 connector.
Table A-4 lists the EIA-530 interconnections that are available at serial port B
(
SERIAL PORT 2 on the front panel) when the port is configured via serial
interface modules as an EIA-530 DCE or DTE port.
