The RSĆ232 Port
The RS-232 port connects the PanelView 1200 terminal to the
development computer for uploading and downloading application files,
and connects the PanelView 1200 terminal to a serial printer.
You can also connect the optional Remote Keyswitch and RS-232 Port
Assembly to the RS-232 port. This can be mounted at the front of your
rack or panel for easy access to the port and Mode Select Keyswitch.
The Upload/Download Cable connects the terminal to the development
computer. If you want to connect a serial printer, you’ll have to construct
your own cable. Use the pinout in the following figure to construct the
PanelView 1200 terminal end of this cable. To construct the printer end of
the cable, consult your printer’s user manual.
