DS62-Network, DS62-MD4 Network/Modem Host Module Connection Description BayTech's host communication module provides an interface that controls user access to the DS Series data switch and other DS Series connected modules. EIA-232 SERIAL CONNECTION The DS-Series host communications modules have 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; t

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 (Dat

DS62-Network, DS62-MD4 Network/Modem Host Module Stop Bits 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 sync
