Page 3: Introduction
Introduction SIO4-104.232 The SIO4-104.232, Item Number 3542, is a PC/104 module that provides four RS-232 serial interface ports. The board is designed using the XR16C554 UART, which provides a 16-byte FIFO. The RS-232 compatibility allows for connection to devices utilizing the RS-232 electrical interface, such as modems, and data-entry terminals. -

These files explain typical Linux serial implementations, as well as informing the user to Linux syntax and preferred practices. -
Page 9: Physical Installation
Physical Installation Extreme care should be taken when installing the SIO4-104.232 to avoid causing damage to the connectors. After the adapter is installed, connect your I/O cable to P4.. Refer to Card Setup for information on setting the address and jumper options before inserting the SIO4-104.232 onto the stack. -
Page 10: Physical Connection
Physical Connection The port signals for the SIO4-104.232 are physically connected via a 40-pin box header. The following table shows connector P4’s pin-out. Signal Name DCD4 DSR4 RTS4 Port4 CTS4 DTR4 GND4 GND3 DTR3 CTS3 Port3 RTS3 DSR3 DCD3 DCD2... - Page 11 Available for use with the SIO4-104.232 are the CA228, the CA110/CA143, and the CA222/TB10 combination cables. These cables terminate the SIO4-104.232 40-pin header to four DB9M connectors. This termination provides the standard DB9 pin out for RS-232 (EIA/TIA574) in RS-232 mode. The following table illustrates the DB9 pin out when using any of these optional cables.

0 (space) and -12 volts (-3 to -10 volts) denote a binary 1 (mark). The RS-232 and the EIA/TIA- 574 specification define two types of interface circuits Data Terminal Equipment (DTE) and Data Circuit-Terminating Equipment (DCE). The Sealevel Systems Adapter is a DTE interface. SIO4-104.232 User Manual ©... -
