SDLC I/O Connector - DB9
Female
The Flexport SDLC I/O connector is on the back panel. The SDLC
clock frequency is approximately 2 MHz. Docked, (P506) becomes
the SDLC I/O. This interface is electrically compatible with the EIA-
RS485/RS422 standard. The communications protocol is derived
from the IBM Synchronous Data Link Control specification, and uses
its Non-Switched Multipoint Half-Duplex configuration. This
interface is compatible with all of Spacelabs Healthcare Flexports.
The CPU board always provides the SDLC clock. The SDLC clock
frequency is 3.7847 MHz ±100 ppm. The pinout for this connector is
as follows:
