2.4 SERIAL INTERFACE
The VXI-5534 has four 9 pin DE-9P connectors with lock studs that independently provide either
RS-232, RS-423 or RS-422/RS-485 signals. Table 2-1 shows the serial signal assignments and the
signal direction relative to the VXI-5534.

2 Rx ← Rx- ← -
3 Tx → Tx- → Tx/Rx-

7 RTS → CLKO- → -
8 CTS ← CLKI+ ← -
9 RxCLK ← CLKI- ← -

2.4.1 RS-232 Connections
When RS-232C signals are selected, the signal pinouts are compatible with those on the 9-pin COM
port of an IBM AT or clone computer. The VXI-5534's RS-232 signals can be expanded out to a 25
pin connector with the use of a standard 9 pin-to-pin- 25 pin adapter cable. The RS-232 column in
Table 2-1 shows the RS-232 signal pin assignments and their direction relative to the VXI-5534.
Figure 2-3 shows the standard 9 pin to 25 pin adapter wiring. For minimum RS-232 connections,
use the serial signals on pins 2, 3 and 5. Jumper the unused RS-232 control lines back to themselves
as follows: RTS to CTS and DTR to DSR and DCD. Implement either the hardware or software flow
control if the serial messages could overflow either devices' receive buffer.
