RS-232C
The logic analysis system interfaces with RS-232C communication lines through a
standard 25 pin D connector. The logic analysis system is compatible with RS-232C
protocol. When a hardwire handshake method is used, the Data Terminal Ready
(DTR) line, pin 20 on the connector, is used to signal if space is available for more
data in the logical I/O buffer. Pin outs of the RS-232C connectors are listed in the
following table.
