DTE/DCE is whether you need to cross the Tx/Rx lines (straight or cross-over cable). In a three-wire serial connection you only have two options: - straight cable (rx-rxd, tx-txd, gnd-gnd) - cross-over cable (tx-rxd, rx-txd, gnd-gnd) Most of these serial isolators are powered from the TX lines, so you must have them connected correctly. -- Greetings Bertho (disclaimers are disclaimed) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ Emc-users mailing list Emc-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-users
