Computer or Terminal Connections
Your computer or terminal is connected to the MT202TD via the
modem’s EIA RS-232C / ITU-T V.24 interface connector. This
connector is a standard interface, with a 25-socket female
connection. Therefore, your computer or terminal requires a
standard RS-232C / V.24 cable with a male connector on the
modem end, and a male or female connector at the computer
or terminal end, depending upon the computer or terminal
connector.
Plug the RS-232C / V.24 cable into the RS-232C / V.24 con-
nector on the modem. If screws were provided with your cable,
insert and tighten the screws to secure the connection.
Although the RS-232C / V.24 interface connector is designed
for 25 signal paths, only eight of these signals are used by the
MT202TD.
If your computer or terminal did not come with an RS-232C /
V.24 cable, you may purchase a standard “straight-through”
RS-232C / V.24 cable from your local computer retailer.
