BayTech's Modular Series unit provides a Serial EIA232 interface that controls user access and outlet
controls to the power strip.
CAUTION: All power should be removed from the BayTech unit prior to removing or installing
cables and /or adapters.
The RPC has an RJ-45 port which uses an 8-pin crossed modular cable to connect to a local EIA-232
device such as a computer terminal or external modem. Most serial computers do not have RJ-45
connections; therefore an adapter is provided with this unit to convert from a DE-9 connector to an RJ-
45 connector (Bay Tech Part No. 9FRJ45PC-4). An adapter to convert from a DB-25 connector to an
RJ-45 connector is also available from Bay Tech, upon request (Bay Tech Part No. 25FRJ45PC-4).
The 8-pin crossed modular cable is configured to operate with these adapters.
Using a straight 10/100 Base-T cable, connect the RJ-45 port labeled ETHERNET on the HOST
module to an RJ-45 port on the network hub. The LINK (link integrity) LED, located on the front
panel of the HOST, illuminates when a good connection is established between the HOST and the hub.
A Flash upgradeable 56 Kbps (V.90bis) modem allows standard dial-up telephone lines to be used
between the Data Switch installation and the user's location. Using the RJ04X007 (RJ-11) modular
cable, connect to “LINE” on the DS62-MD4 module to the Telco wall jack. Using communications
software, dial the modem using the ATDT command.
IMPORTANT: The DS62-MD4 modem option and the Ethernet port have priority over the
EIA-232 serial port. If a serial port user is connected to a DS74 I/O port when a modem or
Ethernet connection is established, the serial port user will be “booted” off, allowing the remote
user to communicate with the DS unit. Whichever port user is the configuration mode cause
the message to be sent to the other port user, “Configuration Mode in use”

For a simple communication between modems three connected lines are needed: TX, Rx, and Ground.
For the data to be transmitted, both sides have to be clocking the data at the same baud rate. While this
method is sufficient for most applications, it is limited in being able to respond to problems such as the
receiver getting overloaded. This is where serial handshaking can help.
Software Handshaking: This style uses actual data bytes as control characters. The lines necessary
are TX, Rx, and ground since the control characters are sent over the transmission line like regular
data. The two control characters, XON and XOFF are characters sent by the receiver of the data to halt
the transmitter during communication.
NOTE: A drawback to this method is also the most important fact to keep in mind. In ASCII
transmissions these character values are non-character values; however, data being transmitted via
binary, it is very likely that these values could be transmitted as data and the transmission would
fail.

Select 2), from the Serial Port Configuration Menu changes the transfer rate of
Data bits per second for the serial port, Default is 9600
Hardware Handshaking: This style uses actual hardware lines. Like the TX and Rx lines, the
RTS/CTS and DTR/DSR lines work together. When a receiver is ready for data, it will assert the RTS
(Request to Send) line. This is then read by the sender at the CTS (Clear to Send) input, indicating it is
clear to send the data. DTR (Data Terminal Ready) and DSR (Data Set Ready) allow the serial port
and the modem to communicate their status. When the modem is ready for data to be sent, it will
assert the DTR line indicating that a connection has been made across the phone line. This is read in
through the DSR line and the modem can begin to send data. The general rule of thumb is that the
DTR/DSR lines are used to indicate that the system is ready for communication where the RTS/CTS
lines are used for individual packets of data.
The word size is the measurement of the actual data bits in a transmission. Which setting you choose
depends on what information you are transferring. For example, standard ASCII has values from 0 to
127 (7 bits). Extended ASCII uses 0 to 255 (8 bits). If the data being transferred is simple text
(standard ASCII), sending 7 bits of data per packet is sufficient for communication. A packet refers
to a single byte transfer, including start/stop bits, data bits, and parity.
The Stop Bits are used to signal the end of communication for a single packet. Since the data is
clocked across the lines and each device has its own clock, it is possible for the two devices to
become slightly out of sync. Therefore, the stop bits not only indicate the end of transmission but
also give the computers some room for error in the clock speeds. The more bits that are used for stop
bits, the greater the lenience in synchronizing the different clocks, but the slower the data
transmission rate.
