The baud rate, word size and parity of the closed caption encoder must be
set up to match your software configuration. The most common settings
are 1200 Baud, 7 bits odd parity. The Engineering Setup menu BAUD
RATE and SERIAL WORD menu items are used to configure these
parameters. (See section 3.3.1)
The connection to the ATSC encoder must be done using the Port B
connector of the 8085. The connection to a typical ATSC encoder system
with a DTE type port is as follows (a standard 'Null Modem' cable can be
used):
