2.2.2 Signal levels

The RS-232-C/V.24 interface must differentiate between two different signal lines and their levels.

Data lines:
The data signals are defined as being logic "1" (MARK) over the range -3V to -15V and as logic "0"
(SPACE) over the range +3V to +15V.

Control and signal lines:
These signals are defined as being ON (High) over the range +3V to +15V and as OFF (Low) over the
range from -3V to -15V.

For all of the signals, the voltage range from -3V to +3V is not defined as a logic level and can
therefore not be evaluated.
