Well, If anyone is interested I got RS232 working on my ProtoTrak MX3.
I never did get the right pin out for a 9pin to 25 pin cable (obviously, cause' I'm the only one replying to my posts). What I got was a BAFO BF-800 USB to serial DB25 adapter. The adapter plus the 50ft DB25 to DB25 cable that came with the DNC kit from SWI works very well. Till now I could only find USB to DB9 adapters, and was led to believe by many CNC guys that DB25 adapters did not exist.
Thanks to all those who viewed my thread. I know you would've helped if you could. |
