6.9.5. DTE and DCE Communication
RS-232 was developed for allowing communications between data terminal equipment
(DTE) and data communication equipment (DCE). Basic terminals always fall into the DTE
category whereas modems are always considered DCE devices. The difference between the
two is the pin assignment of the Data Receive and Data Transmit functions. DTE devices
receive data on pin 2 and transmit data on pin 3, DCE devices receive data on pin 3 and
transmit data on pin 2.
To allow the analyzer to be used with terminals (DTE), modems (DCE) and computers
(which can be either), a switch mounted below the serial ports on the rear panel allows the
user to switch between the two functions (for COM1 only).
6.9.6. COM Port Communication Modes
Each of the analyzer’s serial ports can be configured to operate in a number of different
modes, which are listed in Table 0-17 and which can be combined by adding the Mode ID
numbers. For example, quiet mode, computer mode and internet-enabled mode would carry
a combined mode ID of 11, the standard configuration for Ethernet functionality on the
M9110EH
COM2 port. Note that each COM port needs to be configured independently.
