DESCRIPTION:
CONNECTION: 1. Disconnect power to the Dataliner display.
2. Connect the appropriate D-shell connector of the cable to the RS232 port on the Dataliner.
3. Connect the other D-shell connector of the cable to the programming terminal or computer. This end of the cable
will be marked to identify the appropriate terminal. If an Allen-Bradley Industrial terminal is being connected, use
"Port B". If a dumb or DEC VT series terminal is being used, connect to the "Main"port. If a computer is being used
connect to the serial RS232 Port (COM 1).
4. Once the cable is connected at both ends, power can be applied to the Dataliner and you can begin programming
as described in the DL5 or DL40 User's Manual or Offline Programmer Software Manual.
The baud rate of the terminal or computer serial port must match that of the Dataliner display. The DL5 and DL40
are shipped with a baud rate of 9600 baud.
