Pin assignment of the serial interface
Pin assignment of the serial interface X4 (RS-232 / RS-485)
The table below shows the pin assignment of the 9-pin D-sub miniature plug of the serial
interface. The interface corresponds to the connector assignment of a standardized PC
connector.
Table 8- 2 Pinout of the plug of the serial interface
1 DCD Received signal level
The DCE reports the input of data to be sent to
the DTE (connection establishment).

Output
DTE signals readiness to sent to DCE.
Reference mass of the interface
DCE reports readiness for operation to DTE.
7 RTS Turn on transmitter
The DTE requests the DCE to send data on the
data cable. The DTE waits for confirmation of
the readiness to to send (CTS) of the DCE.
Output
8 CTS Ready to send
The DCE can transfer the data coming from the
