5.2 RPC-2 MD01 AND RPC-2 RDR
5.2.1 LOCAL ACCESS
5.2.1.1 EIA-232 SERIAL CONNECTION
The RPC-2 MD01 and RPC-2 RDR have an RJ-45 port for connecting to a
local EIA-232 device, such as a computer terminal or external modem.
Most serial computers do not have RJ-45 connections; therefore, an
adapter is provided with this unit to convert from a DE-9 connector to an
RJ-45 connector (BayTech Part No. 9FRJ45PC-1). If you are connecting
to a modem, use a modem adapter (BayTech Part No. 25MRJ45MD-8).
BayTech also manufactures a computer/terminal adapter (BayTech Part
No. 25FRJ45PC-1) for converting from a DB-25 connector to a
RJ-45 connector. If your computer does have a RJ-45 connection, but the
pin signals are different from those described for BayTech on Page 20 of
this manual, it is possible for BayTech to customize an adapter for you. If
you require a different adapter than the one supplied with this unit, contact
one of BayTech’s Applications Engineers.
Using the 9FRJ45PC-1 adapter (or other applicable adapter) and the
RJ08X007 crossed cable, connect the serial port of your computer to the
RJ-45 port labeled “EIA-232” on the back of your RPC unit.
5.2.1.2 COMMUNICATIONS SOFTWARE
Load serial port communications software. Configure host terminal’s
serial communications parameters to match the RPC. RPC factory serial
communications parameters are 9600 bps, 8 data bits, 1 stop bit, and no
parity.
NOTE: These parameters are not user selectable.
