2.2.3 Connecting to the serial device

Connect the one end of the CAT5 cable to RS232 port of the Rhio232 and the other to host or

device server. If connector type of host or device server is DB9, connect the other end using

RJ45 to DB9 Female adaptor. If the cable is properly hooked up, the Rhio232 will have a valid

connection to the device server(or host) by indicating:

- [Serial Rx], [Serial Tx] green lamps continuously blink to indicate the incoming/outgoing data

stream through serial port of the Rhio232

If any of the above does not happen, the Rhio232 is not properly connected to the RS232

communication.

Note: User must configure serial parameters a host or device server in such a way that it should

be same with the Rhio232's serial parameters. Serial parameters of the Rhio232 are as follows:

9600 Baud rate, Data bits 8, Parity None, Stop bits 1, No flow control
