Data Transfer Protocol
The Titrino is configured as DTE (Data Terminal Equipment).
The RS 232 interface has the following technical specifications:
• Data interface according to the RS 232C standard, adjustable transfer pa-
rameters, see pages 12 and 113.
• Max. line length:
• Control characters:
• Cable length:
Start 7 or 8 Data Bit
Only a shielded data cable (for example, METROHM D.104.0201) may be
used to couple the Titrino with foreign devices. The cable shield must be
properly grounded on both instruments (pay attention to current loops; al-
ways ground in a star-head formation). Only plugs with sufficient shielding
may be used (for example, METROHM K.210.0381 with K.210.9045).
Handshake inputs on the Titrino (CTS) are not checked.
Handshake outputs (DTR, RTS) are set by the Titrino.
The Titrino sends XOFF when its input buffer contains 384 characters. After
this it can receive 128 extra characters (including L
