Remote (RS-232/contact closure) port — This 9-pin connector provides for two-
way RS-232 communication. See the “SIS Communication and Control” chapter for
information on how to install and use the control software and SIS commands.
The default protocol is 9600 baud, 1 stop bit, no parity, and no flow control.
The rear panel RS-232 9-pin D female connector has the following pin assignments:

The Remote connector also provides a way to select an input using a remote contact
closure device. Contact closure control uses pins on the RS-232 connector that are not
used by the RS-232 interface (see preceding table).
To select a different input number using a contact closure device, short the pin for the
desired input number to logic ground (pin 5).
NOTE: If contact closure is not in use, pins 1, 4, 6, and 7 should have no
connection.
