(1) The name shows the default function. Given the auto-MDIX capability of the Ethernet transceiver,
TX and RX function could be swapped.
3.1.2 SETUP & COM Ports
For serial ports considerations:
ViPR radiomodem is a DCE
Equipment connected to the ViPR SETUP / COM serial port is a DTE

DCD (pin 1) handling by ViPR unit UART
Asserts the DCD signal while sending data on the UART
Negates the DCD signal when it no longer has data queued up for TX on the UART
DTR (Data Terminal Ready) (pin 4) signal handling by ViPR UART - Depends on the serial port's con-
nection control mode.
The connection control mode dictates how the ViPR establishes/breaks the connection (referred
to as "session") between the ViPR serial ports and the selected ViPR service (CLI, Serial/RF
bridge, Online Diagnostics, etc.)
Permanent (3-wire) connection control - In this mode, the session is permanently established, so
the ViPR ignores the status of the DTR signal.
Switched (DTR bringup/teardown) connection control - In this mode, the ViPR monitors the
status of the DTR signal.
