You use the terminal’s serial ports to transfer data between the terminal 
and a serial device. Every 248X has one serial port (COM1) that supports 
RS-232 communications. You can use COM1 to connect to a serial 
device, such as a printer, scale, or PC. 

The terminal has an option for an enhanced input/output board that 
provides two additional serial ports. COM2 supports RS-232/422/485 
communications. You can use COM2 to connect to a serial device, a wired 
network, or an Intermec CrossBar network. COM4 supports RS-232 
communications. You need the adapter cable accessory (P/N 067185) to 
use COM4. 

Connect the 9-pin RS-232 connector from a serial device to the COM1 
connector on the back of the terminal.
