3.2 Serial cable connection

The Extender C5 set offers the option to attach an RS232 serial device (such as a touch screen input) via the
remote link. The link supports software or hardware handshaking up to a maximum baud rate of 56 Kb/s. To
make the serial connection between the LOCAL module and your computer system, use the supplied serial link
cable.
1 Attach the male connector of the serial link cable to the 9 pin port on the LOCAL module.
2 Connect the other end of the serial link cable to the appropriate serial port of the computer system.

3.3 Twisted pair connection

The link between the LOCAL and REMOTE modules is made via twisted pair cable, specified to Category 5 or
higher. Ensure that the total twisted pair cable length (including patch boxes) does not exceed 300 metres.
1 Insert the connector from the twisted pair cable link into the socket.
Optional power connection
The LOCAL module usually derives its power from the keyboard connection of the host system.
If the keyboard connection will not be used then you will need to use an external power supply
of the same type used for the REMOTE module.
These are available from your LINDY supplier.
