  • Part Number: CUSTRS232
  • Instock

Need a Custom built RS232C cable to your specs or made to the RS232/Fanuc/Mitsubishi/Yaskawa standard. Estimated time from order to build time is 1-2 business days. Time may vary depending on availability of engineer to build the cable and quantity ordered. This cable will be built with the standard DB9 female and DB25 male ends and software handshake unless otherwise specified. If different ends are required or to verify wiring configuration for machine give us a call or add to notes before adding to cart. Costs will remain the same for all DB connectors. We ask for machine make and model to help confirm the cable will work for your machine.

Below are the standard typical connectors.

Software handshaking (standard protocal)- uses software XON/XOFF control when it sends the data, RTS (request to send) and CTS (Clear to send) signals jumped out so it is always ready to send or recieve. This is the typical RS232C cable wiring standard.
Hardware handshaking- uses two additional wires, CNC requests data, then pc sends etc. The signals are RTS/CTS

After/before order please email or fax a copy of the wiring diagram if you would like to confirm to the below.

Standard Disclaimer
*We are not responsible for improper wiring diagrams supplied by our customers and for any damages which may occur as a result of improper wiring. We will confirm the wiring for your machine most of the time, if not we will contact you to provide more details. Our cables are tested wire for wire with a PLC programmed to test our cables to be sure our products are wired correctly before shipment. As an FYI damage to the machine is extremely rare due to improper wiring because of the low voltage rs232 operates under. Data loss when transfering programs over cables can occur depending on routing, length, environment and other factors. Our cables are shielded to attempt to reduce noise from communications and the manufacturing environment. CNC Specialty Store LLC will not be liable or responsible for any damage which may result from the installation and use of our product.
