I could use some help the definition of the pin coming out of the Keyspan
USA-28X USB/Serial adapter. The 28X that I have has been replaced by the
newer 28xg
http://www.keyspan.com/products/usa28xg/homepage.2.specs.spml
and there is NO definition on the Keyspan web page. I sent three email
messages and they have not responded.
The reason I need to know the pin assignments is I cannot find a cable to go
between mm G4 AGP 1GHz via the USA-28X with a Mini 8 DIN and my Kenwood
TS-570 ham radio that has a DB-9 RS-232 connector.
I tried a Newton to PC cable. It mated okay but did not work. I tried
Fry's and several cable places and they all thought I was crazy asking for a
Mini 8 to DB-9.
My plan is to take an old Mini 8 straight through cable that came with a Mac
A/B switch and cut off one end and replace it with a DB-9. I know what the
Kenwood expects from the DB-25. I am clueless on the specs for the 8 pins
coming out of the USA-28X.
Any help will be appreciated.
