Serial Adapter (DB9)
Installation Instructions
Stylistic LT Series
The Serial Adapter allows you to connect a serial device
directly to your pen tablet without a docking device. The
port is a fully functional RS-232-C serial port that can be
used as a standard serial port on your pen tablet.
On one side of the adapter is a plug which fits into the
system interface port (see Figure 1). On the opposite side
of the adapter is a 9-pin port for a serial connector (see
Figure 2).
To install the adapter,
1. If the pen tablet is running, either suspend
operation or power down the system.
2. If the serial device you wish to connect has power
applied, remove power.
3. Remove the plastic cover that is located over the
system interface port on the bottom edge of the
pen tablet. Keep the cover in a safe place for future
reinstallation.
4. Plug the Serial Adapter into the system interface
port. The plug is keyed so that it will only fit when
it is positioned properly (see Figure 3).
5. Insert the serial plug into the serial connector (see
Figure 2).
6. Restart the system and the serial device.
To remove the adapter,
1. If the pen tablet is running, either suspend
operation or power down the system.
2. If the serial device you wish to disconnect has
power applied, remove power.
3. Pull the plug from the connector. Replace the
plastic cover over the interface port.
4. Restart your system.
Note:
When the Serial Adapter is attached to the pen
tablet, the tablet cannot be used in the compact desk
stand because the connector/cable assembly extends
too far from the bottom of the system. The system
should be held or laid flat when the Serial Adapter is
installed.
