Custom pinout
Custom pinout tab enables you to set custom signal lines wiring. Besides you can manage signal lines wiring by using pinout presets. Moreover you can create and save your own pinout preset just in several clicks.
Custom pinout presets:
- Standard - default signal lines wiring.
- Loopback Mode - main purpose of this preset is to let software think that there is handshaking available, with a null-modem which has no provisions for it.
- Custom - select your own pinout of signal lines, save it to your own pinout preset.
In our Standard pinout preset we are using RS232 null modem scheme with partial handshaking:
| Connector 1 | Connector 2 | Function | ||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | 7 + 8 | RTS2 |  |
CTS2 + CD1 |
| 2 | 3 | Rx |  |

| 6 | 4 | DSR | |
DTR |
| 7 + 8 | 1 | RTS1 | |
