RS-232 DTE Loopback Connections

Figure 62. Loopback Connections for RS-232

For Transmit and Receive loopback, connect only those lines.

When Flow Control setting on the Serial Server is set for RTS/CTS, those
lines must be looped. Usually DTR and DSR must also be looped. The Flow
Control setting for the program must match the Server settings. The CD
connection is needed by some terminal programs to simulate Carrier.
