Almost all ASCII terminals, and most computer serial ports, are configured as Data Terminal Equipment. To connect these to the SuperView, you need a “straight through” cable with pins 1 through 8 connected. “Straight through” implies that pin 2 is connected to pin 2, etc. The cable will have a 9-pin male plug on SuperView’s end, and the appropriate gender of a 9-pin connector on the other end. Most ASCII terminals and host computers have a 9-pin female connector for their RS-232 port. This cable may be up to 50 feet long for regular cable, or substantially longer for low capacitance cable. Depending on the signals used, one or more of the conductors internal to the cable may not be needed.

You may need to connect the SuperView’s serial port to a host computer configured as Data Communications Equipment. This is done using a null modem. The net effect of a null modem is to reverse the Transmitted Data and Received Data connections. Also, the Request to Send and Clear to Send connections are reversed. This may be done by using a special “null modem” cable, or by inserting a small “null modem” box or cable in series with a regular “straight through” cable.
