Breakout Assembly Pinouts
The pinouts for the breakout assembly connectors are listed below. Because
the LaserSpeed cable connects directly to the DB25/DB37 cable, the pinout for
this connector is identical to the gauge cable pinout. See the Connecting to
Outputs section for details.
RS-232 Connector
This Female DB9 connector can be connected to any PC serial port using a
straight-through serial cable with a male connector on one end and a female
connector on the other end. A null modem is not required.

RS-422 Connector
This Male DB9 connector can be connected to an RS-422 input on a PLC, or
an RS-422 converter connected to a PC. Because there is no standard pinout
for RS-422, you may wish to rewire this terminal block to match your cable.
