The QScreen Controller does not differentiate between these. The RS232 protocol specifies the use of two separate grounds, a signal ground and a protective (or "chassis") ground. Please contact Mosaic Industries if you need these custom configurations.Īlthough the RS232 protocol specifies functions for as many as 25 pins, each communications channel requires only three for simple serial interfaces: TxD1 (transmit data), RxD1 (receive data), and DGND (digital ground). Pads are also available to bring out the RS485 signals to the DB9 Serial 1 Connector. There are surface mount resistor pads on the QScreen that will allow you to bring out the secondary serial port to the Field Header on pins 5-6 or 7-8 as shown with the parentheses in Table 11-3. The pinout of the QScreen’s Serial Header (H5), QScreen’s Field Header (H3), and the Serial Connectors are shown in the following tables.

A serial communications cable is also supplied with QScreen Starter Kits. The primary and secondary serial communications ports are accessible through the QScreen's 10 pin, dual row Serial Header (H5) which is typically not installed, the 24 pin, dual row Field Header (H3), and through the individual DB-9 Serial 1 and Serial 2 connectors.
#RS 232 SERIAL COMMUNICATION PROTOCOL DRIVER#
The specified signal levels of approximately +/- 9 Volts are derived from the QScreen Controller’s +5 Volt supply by a dual RS232 driver chip that has a built-in charge pump voltage multiplier. The data bits are also transmitted in reverse order, with the least significant bit transmitted first, after a start bit. The terminal’s serial receiver chip re-inverts the signal to its positive sense. RS232 uses inverse logic that is, a positive bit at the 68HC11 UART is inverted by the onboard RS232 driver chip and appears as a negative signal on the serial cable. If your computer does not have an RS-232 serial port, low cost USB-to-RS-232 serial cables are available contact Mosaic Industries for details. RS232’s greatest benefit is its universality practically all personal computers can use this protocol to send and receive serial data.

#RS 232 SERIAL COMMUNICATION PROTOCOL FULL#
RS232 allows both communicating parties to transmit and receive data at the same time this is referred to as full duplex communications. Its simplest implementation requires only three wires: one to transmit serial data, a second to receive serial data, and a third to provide a common ground reference. It is supported by virtually all personal computers, and is the default protocol for both of the QScreen Controller’s serial ports. RS232 is by far the most common protocol. The dual communications channels also provide an easy way to link systems that communicate using different serial protocols. Since both channels can operate simultaneously and independently, debugging can be performed while the application program is communicating via its primary channel. The secondary channel is very useful for debugging application programs that communicate with other computers or I/O via the primary channel. (The QScreen Controller also supports fast synchronous serial communications via the Serial Peripheral Interface described later in this Chapter.) Rather, the UART deduces the correct time to sample the incoming signal based on the start and stop bits in the signal itself. The communications is asynchronous because no synchronizing clock signal is transmitted along with the data. It controls the serial-to-parallel and parallel-to-serial conversion and performs all of the timing functions necessary for asynchronous serial communications. The primary channel’s UART translates the bit-by-bit data on the serial cable into bytes of data that can be interpreted by the QED-Forth Kernel or by your application program. Synchronous Serial Peripheral Interface at 2 MBaud PA 3-4 may also be used for hardware handshaking for Serial 1. PA 3-4 may be used as timer-controlled I/O (one input-capture and one output-compare) if Serial 2 is not used.
