Overview
The CD-RW901's REMOTE connector can be used to control the CD-RW901 from a computer or
other external device. In this document, the CD-RW901 is referred to as the "controlled device,"
and the external device that controls it is referred to as the "external controller."

*1： A voltage that satisfies the RS-232C specification must be applied to Rx Data.
*2： RTS/CTS is loopback-connected within the controlled device. If using RTS/CTS control,
consider the design of the external controller.
TASCAM CD-RW901 RS-232C Protocol Specification
JIS X-5101 (equivalent to former JIS C-6361 and EIA RS-232C)
(Not compatible with the RS-422A used in professional VTR units)
When measured with an applied voltage of between ±3 and 15V, the DC
resistance is between 3KΩ and 7KΩ.
Total load capacitance is less than 2500pF
Less than 2V
When the open circuit voltage at the receiver is 0V, the signal voltage is
between ±5V and ±15V for a load impedance of between 3K and 7KΩ.
