Pin Assignments and Signal Names for Serial Interface

The CD, DTR, and DSR are connected together inside of the FP.

Connector ..................... Dsub 9 pin female

Connector set screw ..... Inch type (4-40UNC)

Cable............................. SIO cable for FP manufactured by Pro-face.

(FP61V-IS00-O)

Concerning Signal Names

Signal names used for the serial interface on FP units are designed to match the

pin order used on most PC serial interfaces, so that a straight cable can be used

to connect the two. Therefore, connect each pin’s signal to the same signal name

on the PC side. For example, pin #2 ‘RD’ should be connected to the ‘RD’ input

terminal on the PC’s connector.

Refer to the FP3000 Series User Manual’s section “Cable Diagrams” for each

signal’s direction.

• If a cable other than the specified DVI-D cable is used, product

performance cannot be guaranteed due to the possibility of noise

interfering with the FP unit’s operation.

• Only when the FP-3710T series is connected with PS-2000B or

PL-3000B (Revision B or more), FP-DV01-100 can be used.

• Please turn on PS-2000B's internal dipswitch 4 when you use

FP-DV01-100 with PS-2000B. (The resolution that can be

displayed is 1024 x 768 only (XGA). )

Please turn off dipswitch 4 when you use FP-DV01-50.

• Please set PL-3000B’s internal dipswitch 5 to z sign side when

you use FP-DV01-100 with PL-3000B.

We will recommend the resolution of PL-3000B to change to

the maximum display resolution of FP additionally.

Please set it on the opposite side of z sign when you use FP-

DV01-50.
