Need Help!- HAAS RS-232 D-Sub Connector

[Mic6]

So I'm looking in the Haas manual, for the RS-232 wiring. It gives me the location og ground PIN-1, but the diagram lists wires as pin 2-red, pin 3-black, pin 7-green, and points to the connector as pins 25, 13, 14. Why dont the pins match wire colors?

[Mic6]

Wait, nevermind, I didnt realize I just have to count the pins, and the diagram was showing me the direction they are numbered. OOPS. Still wakin up!

[Mic6]

Well then, instead of that question...the manual says connect to serial port 1 to send/receive. I take it the top port is port 1? I cant find it in the manual.

Yes,

Bottom port is for controlling other equipment

Sometimes things are difficult to find in the Haas manuals because they are not there. They seem to have slimmed the manual down over the years but you can find a more complete and up to date pdf file on their website. Go to this link and scroll down:
