Optional RS-232 Communication
Powermonitor 3000 units with a catalog number ending in -232 are equipped with an RS-232
serial communication port in addition to the native RS-485 port. The RS-232 communication
standard supports point-to-point communication among two stations or nodes. You must
select either optional RS-232 communication or native RS-485 communication. The two
ports do not operate at the same time.
The optional RS-232 communication port is a data communication equipment (DCE) type
device. It requires a straight-through RS-232 cable to connect with personal computers,
programmable controller serial ports, and other data terminal equipment (DTE) devices. It
requires a crossover cable for connection to a modem or other DCE devices. No terminating
resistor is required.
The maximum cable length is 15.24 m (50.0 ft). Refer to the following wiring diagrams for
cable pinout information for constructing your own cable using DB-9 and/or DB-25
connectors.
