Serial Communication
RS-232 and RS-485 are Electronic Industries Association (EIA)
specifications commonly used for serial data communication.
Siemens ACCESS devices support the RS-485 as standard.
Some ACCESS devices also support the RS-232 standard.
RS-232 RS-232 is a serial communication protocol which sends and
receives information through twisted pair cable. It is common to
see both 9-pin and 25-pin RS-232 connectors. It is important to
note that although the RS-232 standard consists of 25
transmission lines, many applications do not require all the lines
available. Depending on the device, manufacturers use various
combinations of the transmission lines available. The following
illustration, for example, shows the connector requirements for
equipment used in the Siemens ACCESS system.
