9.2.4 Communication interfaces
The MCS-12 currently has three communication interfaces
(RS232, CAN, Profibus DP). The controller can be controlled via
these interfaces using the SCHUNK Motion Protocol (SMP).
All communication interfaces may be connected simultaneously.
However, only one communication interface may be active.
Note
The RS232 interface should be only used as
a parameterization interface.
The connection is established via a 9-pin SUB-D connector from
the control system (PC / SPC) to the controller (MCS-12) (for the
position of the connector, see Figure 7 page 35)

The connection is established via a 9-pin SUB-D socket from the
control system (master) to the controller (MCS-12) (for the posi-
tion of the connector, see Figure 7 page 35)
