3.3.6 Connecting the RS-232 Port to a PC
For RS-232 interface, a crossover RS-232 cable adapter (of approximately two meters) is
supplied. This cable adapter provides a 3-pin connector for connecting to the 6310/8410
blade's RS-232 port (located on the front panel) and a DB-9 connector (on the other end of
the cable) for the COM1 or COM2 RS-232 communication port on your PC.
¾ To connect the device's RS-232 port to your PC:
1. Plug the RS-232 cable adapter's 3-pin connector into the RS-232 port (labeled 1010),
located on the blade's front panel.
2. Connect the DB-9 female connector (on the other end of the RS-232 cable adapter) to
your PC's COM1 or COM2 port.
