Controller-PC Wiring (Serial Connections)

A preferred method for operating a Model 1000 GC System is from a connected personal computer
(PC). The PC must be...
(a) running MON2000 software, and
(b) connected to the GC System by a serial link.
This section of the manual addresses the various possibilities for wiring a serial connection between
a PC and the GC System.
3.4.3.1

Before Connecting

Before connecting a PC to the GC Controller, determine the following:
(1) What serial ports are available at the PC? When you select one, consider these points:
(a) FACT: Standard PC serial ports are type RS-232.
(b) Usually there are two external serial port jacks on a PC, located on the rear panel.
Most often, they are either DB-9 or DB-25 male (see below).
(c) PC serial ports can be designated as "COM1" through "COM8," and they can be used
by other peripheral equipment attached to the PC, such as printers, mice, or modems,
etc.
