Figure 2-2. RS-232 Cable Pin Connections
NOTE:
The DEFINITY Extender modules use the CTS line for flow control.
When the internal buffer is 32 characters from full, the CTS line is
turned off. While CTS is off, up to an additional 32 characters can
be transmitted without any loss of data. If hardware flow control is
not enabled or if a cable without the CTS line connected is used,
characters will be lost when this buffer overflows.
The DEFINITY Extender modules use the DCD line to indicate
whether or not the modules have made a connection. When this
line is on, the modules have made connection.
