Communication Interface
8-3
The figures below show the wiring connections for the RS-232 interface
with hardware handshake. The arrows in the following figures indicate the
signal flow direction. Figure 8.1 shows the wiring connections when the
CNC is a DCE (Data Communication Equipment) device and the
peripheral is a DTE (Data Terminal Equipment) device. A DTE device
transmits data on pin 2, and a DCE device transmits on pin 3. Figure 8.2
shows the wiring connections when the CNC and the peripheral are both
DCE (Data Communication Equipment) devices. On the 9/230 systems all
communications connections are made with port B.
