MRX-1 BASE STATION

Integrating RS-232 and Relays

RS-232

There are two versions of the RS232 cable. The RS232M has a male

DB9 connector and the RS232F has a female DB9 connector. Be

sure to verify the proper cable configuration by visually inspecting

the RS232 terminal on the device to be controlled. Some devices

will use other types of connectors such as RJ45 and mini jacks.

Custom cables can be made using the pin-out for the MRX-1 jacks.

Please refer to the devices’ owner’s manual for the pin-out of RS232

Terminals that are not DB9 connectors. (Universal Remote Control

Part #’s: RS232M-male DB9 and RS232F-female DB9). Polarity

(RS232): Tip = no connection, Ring 1 =TX (red wire), ring 2 = RX

(white wire), ring 3=GND (shield).

1. Connect the 3.5 mono 4-circuit mini plug end of a URC RS232

Male or Female to the appropriate RS232 programmable output

jack of the MRX-1 Network Base station.

2. Connect the DB9 Connector to the device RS232 Terminal.

Tighten the thumb screws to secure the connection.

Once the connections have been made, the RS232 device proper-

ties need configuring before RS-232 communication can be estab-

lished. The Baud Rate, Data bits, Parity and Stop Bit is supplied in

the manufacturer’s manual and must be entered into CCP. Once all

the information has been supplied, each of the entered RS-232

commands can be tested to ensure communication and accuracy.
