Power Supply
The A52/A53 converters are designed for standard +24 VDC
unregulated power for use in industrial environments. Operation is
guaranteed when using any power supply between +9 and +30
VDC at 350 mA. An optional power adaptor (9 V 1.5 A UL 110/230
V) can support up to 4 converters (see the following diagram).

RS-232 Pinouts
10-pin RJ45 Jack
The RJ45 port for the RS-232 signal is
shown in the following figure.

1 DCD (Always On) 6 RxD
2 DSR 7 GND
3 RTS 8 CTS
4 GND 9 DTR
5 TxD 10 ---
NOTE
Each group of (DTR, DSR) pins are shorted, freeing users
from the hardware flow control cable wiring problem. For
this reason, we list two types of RS-232 cable wiring below.
Type 1: To connect the RS-232 side of A52/A53 to a DTE (e.g., PC
COM1/2) or DCE. (Be sure to check the precise DTE/DCE
pinouts. The following DTE/DCE pinouts are just an
example.)

Type 2: You can connect the RS-232 side of the A52/A53 to a DTE,
such as a terminal or PC COM1/2, with 3-pin wiring if you
don’t need hardware flow control.

Connector is depicted as follows.

NOTE
Pins 6 and 7 of the Terminal Block are for Power GND and

Be careful NOT TO confuse RS-422/RS-485 GND with
Power GND.
