Figure 26. RS-232 Connector Wiring
CAUTION: The length of the exposed (stripped) copper wires is important. The
ideal length is 3/16 inch (5 mm). Longer bare wires can short together.
Shorter wires are not as secure in the connectors and could be pulled out.
NOTES: • Do not tin the power supply leads before installing them in the direct
insertion connector. Tinned wires are not as secure in the connectors and
could be pulled out.
• The RS-232 connector can also transmit one-way modulated infrared (IR)
signals. See Modulated IR Pass Through Application .
