The motherboard provides four serial transceivers on the rear panel of the enclosure.
Figure A.2 shows the pin numbering for the 9-pin D-type male connector used on the V2M-P1 and Table A.1 shows the signal assignment for the connectors.
Figure A.2 shows the pinout that is configured as a Data Communications Equipment (DCE) device.
Table A.1. Serial plug signal assignment
| Pin | UART0 J24A, top | UART1 J24B, bottom | UART2 J25A, top | UART3 J25B, bottom |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | SER0_DCD | NC | NC | NC |
| 2 | SER0_RX | SER1_RX | SER2_RX | SER3_RX |
| 3 | SER0_TX | SER1_TX | SER2_TX | SER3_TX |
| 4 | SER0_DTR | SER1_DTR[a] | SER2_DTR[a] | SER3_DTR[a] |
| 5 | SER0_GND | SER1_GND | SER2_GND | SER3_GND |
| 6 | SER0_DSR | SER1_DSR[a] | SER2_DSR[a] | SER3_DSR[a] |
| 7 | SER0_RTS | SER1_RTS | SER2_RTS | SER3_RTS |
| 8 | SER0_CTS | SER1_CTS | SER2_CTS | SER3_CTS |
| 9 | SER0_RI | NC | NC | NC |
[a] The SER1_DTR, SER2_DTR, and SER3_DTR signals are connected to the corresponding SER1_DSR, SER2_DSR, and SER3_DSR signals. These signals cannot be set or read under program control. | ||||
Depending on system configuration, UART0 and UART1 are used for remote control, the interface to the MCC, log file output, or Boot Monitor interface. See Chapter 3 Configuration.
