RS-232 Pin outs (DB-9)A male DB-9 connector viewed from the front. If the voltage is on Pin 2, then it is a DCE device.Note: The result for a DB-25 Connector is reversed (Please refer to DB-9 to DB-25 conversion table below). Use the simple way below to confirm: Measure Pin 3 and Pin 5 of a DB-9 Connector with a Volt Meter, if you get a voltage of -3V to -15V, then it is a DTE device. A modem is a DCE.DTE normally comes with a Male Connector, while DCE comes with a Female Connector. DCE stands for Data Communication Equipment. DTE and DCEDTE stands for Data Terminal Equipment.
If you have a chance to test your RS232 devices with the 232Analyzer software, you should be able to control your RS232 devices in a short period of time.Step 1: Understand RS232 Connection & SignalsRS-232C, EIA RS-232, or simply RS-232, refers to the same standard defined by the Electronic Industries Association in 1969 for serial communication. This article will explain the following topics in details:1)2)3)After reading this page, you should be able to understand most of the hardware and software (protocol) standards for RS232.
