Pin Number 
Name  Usage 
1  DCD - 
dcd_uart 
36  Data Carrier Detect  Output from the GM862-QUAD / PY that indicates 
the carrier presence 
2  RXD - 
tx_uart 
37  Transmit line *see Note  Output transmit line of GM862-QUAD / PY UART 
3  TXD - 
rx_uart 
20  Receive line *see Note  Input receive of the GM862-QUAD / PY UART 
4  DTR - 
dtr_uart 
43  Data Terminal Ready  Input to the GM862-QUAD / PY that controls the 
DTE READY condition 
5  GND  2-4  Ground  Ground 
6  DSR - 
dsr_uart 
33  Data Set Ready  Output from the GM862-QUAD / PY that indicates 
the module is ready 
7  RTS -
rts_uart 
45  Request to Send  Input to the GM862-QUAD / PY that controls the 
Hardware flow control 
8  CTS - 
cts_uart 
29  Clear to Send  Output from the GM862-QUAD / PY that controls 
the Hardware flow control 
9  RI - ri_uart  30  Ring Indicator  Output from the GM862-QUAD / PY that indicates 
the incoming call condition 
NOTE: According to V.24, RX/TX signal names are referred to the application side, therefore on the GM862-QUAD / 
PY side these signal are on the opposite direction: TXD on the application side will be connected to the receive line 
(here named TXD/ rx_uart ) of the GM862-QUAD / PY serial port and vice versa for RX. 
TIP: For a minimum implementation, only the TXD and RXD lines can be connected, the other lines can be left open 
provided a software flow control is implemented. 
The signals of the TRACE serial port are:
