DB9 to Jazz Jack programming cable wiring


Recommended Posts

I have a JZ20-J-R31-Z and a PC with a DB9 Female serial port. I fancy the making a serial programming cable for it, because I can.

I see the Jazz Jack inside the case is just a standard 10 pin IDC motherboard header, see image below.

I have an drawing of the pins 1 to 9 on the DB9 and pins 1 to 10 on the Jazz jack 10 pin IDC header, see below.

After a bit of internet research I believe pins 2 (RxD < TxD), 3 (TxD > RxD), 4 (DTR > Power), 5 (Signal Ground) & 7 (RTS > Power) are used on the DB9 but not sure where these connect to on the Jazz IDC header, I see the DB9 to RJ11 is 2-3, 3-4, 4-6, 5-2+5, 7-1.

Does anyone have any ideas on the IDC side?

Hi you must know that Jazz 10pin is not RS232 compatible.

Jazz PRG module must be used for programming.

Jazz PRG offer all needed option:

-level shift from RS232 to ttl (max 3221 used);

-galvanic isolation via two optocoupler ;

-RX and TX signal conditioning via logic buffer (NC7SZ58 chip) with 3.3V logic level;

-some add-on elements connected to Jazz connector pins  (i do not know about how it managed by Jazz plc);

-power cirquit for max3221 power from RS232 port.

 

P.S. - on 10pin connector present logic level 3.3V signals. 3.3V power pin and 24VDC from PLC power input.  If you connect any 3.3V pin to 24VDC - PLC can be damaged!

P.P.S - I build my own "Jazz PRG with USB port" and galvanic isolation. But i have standard Jazz PRG and Jazz PLC on table for experiments.
