SIMATIC TIWAY I Series 500 NIM User Manual
2.2 RS-232-C Cable Installation
The physical layer in TIWAY I provides a modem interface for synchronous
or asynchronous modems at data transmission rates up to 115.2K bits per
second. The modem interface provides standard signals, as defined in
Table 2-1, for control of two-way alternate data transmission using both half
and full duplex modems. The modem interface is a standard “Type E” DTE
configuration as defined in Section 5 of EIA RS-232-C. This interface uses a
male (plug) 25-pin D-type connector on the communication cable. The
circuits and pin assignments for the RS-232-C connector are shown in
Table 2-1.
