[comp.sys.apple] Apple //c RS232 cable...

To connect a //c to a modem using RS232,
you will need a 5 pin DIN plug, as well
as a DB25 plug.

The pinouts are as follows:


DIN-5                   DB25 (RS232)
----------------------------------------

  1        DTR            20
  2        TXD            2
  3        GND (Signal)   7
  4        RXD            3
  5        DSR            6



That should work...  In fact, I made
one for a friend of mine with a //c,
but he hasn't had a chance to test it
out, but I am pretty confident that it
will work.

Incidentally, the Imagewriter cable
seems to have the exact same connections,
so you may be able to save some time
and labour and pick up an Imagewriter
cable instead...

Anyway, good luck.
