V.24/28 Interface Wiring
The DPX-213 uses the industry standard V.24 (RS-232) 25 Pin interface configured for a
modem (DCE - female). It is unlikely that the DPX-213 and your computer will need all
the pins shown, some are used only in synchronous operation, while other pins are needed
only by certain software packages.
The DPX-213 modem will operate with only three (3) active leads in the cable, transmit
data, receive data and ground on Pins 2, 3, and 7.

NOTES: 1. Minimum signals for set-up & operation of the DPX-213.
2. Required for RTS/CTS flow control.
3. Optional for the DPX-213, may be needed by your communications package
in asynchronous mode, also needed to access some DPX-213 features such as
DTR dialling and so on.
4. Only required for synchronous operation, best left out of the cable for
asynchronous operation.
5. DC +12VC.
6. These wires are used to extend an internal serial bus out the DB25 connector
and should remain disconnected.
