When connecting a Garmin GPS with RJ45 connector to the ACE3600 RTU, use an Async
RS232-E adaptor and a custom RJ45-to-D9 female adaptor.
The connection chain is: Garmin GPS RJ45 -> customer RJ45 to D9 female -> Async RS232-
E adaptor -> ACE3600 GPS port.
To make the RJ45-to-D9 female adaptor, refer to the following table.

Connecting a User Port to a Printer
To connect one of the RTU RS232 ports defined as a User port to a printer, you may use one
of the two cables described in the previous paragraphs. Since the connection to the printer is
not defined by the RS232 standard, every printer manufacturer has defined the connectors for
his own convenience. Therefore, select the adaptor according to the functions of the various
pins.
If the FLN6458B adaptor (with the male 9-pin D-type connector) is used, refer to the
following table.

If the FLN6457B adaptor (with the female 9-pin, D-type connector) is used, refer to the
following table.
