  2. RS-232 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RS-232

    In telecommunications, RS-232 or Recommended Standard 232 [1] is a standard originally introduced in 1960 [2] for serial communication transmission of data. It formally defines signals connecting between a DTE ( data terminal equipment ) such as a computer terminal or PC , and a DCE ( data circuit-terminating equipment or data communication ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Serial_port

    Pair of female Mini DIN-8 connectors used for RS-422 serial ports on a Macintosh LC computer. Many models of Macintosh favor the related RS-422 standard, mostly using circular mini-DIN connectors. The Macintosh included a standard set of two ports for connection to a printer and a modem, but some PowerBook laptops had only one combined port to ...

  4. Data Terminal Ready - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_Terminal_Ready

    Data Terminal Ready (DTR) is a control signal in RS-232 serial communications, transmitted from data terminal equipment (DTE), such as a computer, to data communications equipment (DCE), for example a modem, to indicate that the terminal is ready for communications and the modem may initiate a communications channel.

  5. Null modem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Null_modem

    A null modem adapter. Null modem is a communication method to directly connect two DTEs (computer, terminal, printer, etc.) using an RS-232 serial cable.The name stems from the historical use of RS-232 cables to connect two teleprinter devices or two modems in order to communicate with one another; null modem communication refers to using a crossed-over RS-232 cable to connect the teleprinters ...

  6. Software flow control - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Software_flow_control

    Software flow control is a method of flow control used in computer data links, especially RS-232 serial. It uses special codes, transmitted in-band, over the primary communications channel. These codes are generally called XOFF and XON (from "transmit off" and "transmit on", respectively). Thus, "software flow control" is sometimes called "XON ...

  8. Data Carrier Detect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_Carrier_Detect

    Data Carrier Detect (DCD) or Carrier Detect (CD) is a control signal present inside an RS-232 serial communications cable that goes between a computer and another device, such as a modem. This signal is a simple "high/low" status bit that is sent from a data communications equipment (DCE) to a data terminal equipment (DTE), i.e., from the modem ...

    While it was originally created for the IEEE-488.1 (GPIB) bus, [5] SCPI can also be used with RS-232, RS-422, RS-485, USB, Ethernet, VXIbus, HiSLIP, etc. [5] SCPI commands are ASCII textual strings, [5] which are sent to the instrument over the physical layer. [5] Commands are a series of one or more keywords, many of which take parameters.
