5.3.5 Configuring Serial Ports B and C
XDS encoders containing a model 8038 UART submodule have fixed
RS232-DTE pinouts for ports B and C. XDS encoders manufactured using
the Evertz 8058 UART submodule can be configured for RS232-DTE or
RS422-tributary operation. Refer to section 5.5.3 to determine if your
encoder contains an 8058 submodule or an 8038. These submodules are
not interchangeable.
The pinouts corresponding to RS-232 DTE (factory setting) and RS-422
tributary configurations are given in Chapter 2. To change port B or port C
between RS-232 DTE and RS-422 tributary pinouts and voltage levels,
remove the top cover and locate J14, J15, J16 and J17 on the 8058
submodule. To change port B setting, you must move the jumper on J16
and the ribbon cable connector on J15. To change port C setting, you must
move the jumper on J17 and the ribbon cable connector on J14. Figure 5-2
shows the ribbon cable position for either port, while Figure 5-3 shows the
jumper positions for all four possible configurations of these two ports.
To find out whether ports B and C have been configured for RS-232 or RS-
422 logic levels without opening the unit for inspection, refer to section
5.5.3 "Viewing Firmware and PLD Revision Levels".
