3/8” Tie-Lok ® Tool
Connections and Pinouts:
1. Data cable connection between tool and breakout box:
8-pin, 15 ft long, CAT5e cable provided. This cable carries both 12 VDC and 5 VDC
power, and 5 digital lines. Using a cable longer than 25 ft will degrade the signal and
may cause the tool to incorrectly report pressure readings.
Only connect the breakout box to the tool. Never connect either the tool or breakout
box to any other device. Damage may occur to device, breakout box, or tool.
Before connecting the cable to the tool and breakout box, check for debris inside
both connectors. On rare occasions, debris inside the connectors will cause a short,
possibly damaging the electronics.
2. Serial connection:
9-pin, approx 10 ft long, straight RS232 serial cable provided. Do not use a null
modem cable. (pins 1, 8 and 9 are inactive)
Pin 2: Data is sent on this pin in ASCII format
Pin 3: Not needed for normal operation. This pin is used to reprogram the breakout
box and needs to be connected for program updates.
Pin 4: This pin controls the breakout box reset and programming. Changing the
state of the this pin from low to high will force a reset on the Breakout box. If
needed, this can be used to clear errors.
Pins 6 and 7: Connected internally
See Figure for Pin Assignments:
