Console serial port

The Console serial port is implemented as a DB-9 connector. This port
can operate as a data terminal equipment (DTE) or data communication
equipment (DCE) device. Use the switch to the left of the port to set the port
to DTE (right) or DCE (left). Default settings for this port are 9600 bits/s, 8
data bits, no parity, and one stop bit.
Connection to TXD and RXD signals and GND is sufficient for the console
serial port to fully function. The Console port does not support any inbound
flow control; that is, the port does not toggle control lines to indicate an input
buffer full condition.
Table 37 "Pin assignments: 8691SF module Console port" (page 134)
the pin assignments for the Console port for both the DTE and DCE settings.
