Making an RCP Communication Cable

The RCP 2000 communicates with the SGS 408 via RS-232. Communication between the RCP 2000 and the ISS 108/408 is via RS-232 or Ethernet. You are provided with six RS-232 cables of different lengths. If you need an RCP communication cable that is a different length from those that are provided, use the following guidelines to make your own cable.
