MVI69-GSC ♦ CompactLogix or MicroLogix Platform
Generic ASCII Serial Communication Module
5.3
Cable Connections
The application ports on the MVI69-GSC module support RS-232, RS-422, and RS-485
interfaces. Please inspect the module to ensure that the jumpers are set correctly to
correspond with the type of interface you are using.
Note: When using RS-232 with radio modem applications, some radios or modems require hardware
handshaking (control and monitoring of modem signal lines). Enable this in the configuration of the module
by setting the UseCTS parameter to 1.
5.3.1 RS-232 Configuration/Debug Port
This port is physically an RJ45 connection. An RJ45 to DB-9 adapter cable is included
with the module. This port permits a PC based terminal emulation program to view
configuration and status data in the module and to control the module. The cable for
communications on this port is shown in the following diagram:
5.3.2 RS-232 Application Port(s)
When the RS-232 interface is selected, the use of hardware handshaking (control and
monitoring of modem signal lines) is user definable. If no hardware handshaking will be
used, here are the cable pinouts to connect to the port.
