ePAQ-9410 / ePAQ-9420 User’s Guide UG-1071Copyright © 2017 QEI Communications Ports 19Connector Pinout :Connections for J7C and J7D are identical to those listed in the table above for J7A.Note 1: J7A-7 and J7A-8 are power for factory use only (I/O expansion), and should NOT be usedfor general purposes. Output current is limited.6.6 Ports 12/13 (J8B/J8A): RS-232 (Bit/Byte) Ports6.6.1 IntroductionThe ePAQ-94XX includes two RS-232 ports, via RJ45 connectors. The ports can bebyte or bit oriented. Each port includes RTS and CTS handshaking lines, as well as clockcontrol lines TXCLK and RXCLK for bit oriented synchronous protocols. Asynchronous portspeeds are generally 1200 to 115.2kbps, and other speeds dependent on bit orientedprotocols. When the RS-232 bit ports are configured for bit oriented protocol, the input andoutput bits are manually controlled by software. Bit protocols supported are per factory order.RJ45 PIN # Signal Type Signal NameJ7A-1 I/O Power GNDJ7A-2 I/O Power GNDJ7A-3 RS-422 TX+J7A-4 RS-422 RX+J7A-5 RS-422 RX-J7A-6 RS-422 TX-J7A-7 I/O Power +24Vdc OUT (Note 1)J7A-8 I/O Power +24Vdc OUT (Note 1)
