I would greatly appreciate it if someone could send me the pinouts of the 9 pin serial port on the back of the HP9000/360 or let me know which manual describes it. Thanks, Robert Brazile IEX Corporation Dallas, Texas uunet!iex!brazile

I may be speaking prematurely, but I seem to remember that this is the same as the PC-AT serial connector. Therefore, your local PC dealer should have the info in any data sheet. There's a chance that I remember this wrong, and I know there is an HP manual that describes it, but this may be the quickest way to get the info you need.

1 - DTR: data terminal ready 2 - TXD: transmitted data 3 - RXD: received data 4 - RTS: request to send 5 - CTS: clear to send 6 - DSR: carrier detect 7 - GND: signal ground 8 - CD: carrier detect 9 - RI: ring indicator Hope this helps. By the way I couldn't find this in any manual either. I had to look it up in some internal notes that I have. I'll call this to the attention of the proper documentation specialist(s).

Negatory, and you can blame me; I'm the person who persuaded the lab to do it this way: The 9-pin connector on current Series 300 computers was cloned (in 1984) from the one on the HP Portable (aka HP 110, HP 45710A). It was as much a standard as anything back then, and cables were available. It has neither the same sex nor the same pinouts as a conventional PC-AT port. The pin-out information is documented under the 98561-66530 (Model 320 human interface card) section of the 98561-90020 Series 300 Configuration Reference Manual (8/85). It may not have been documented elsewhere for later models. We need to address that. Starting with the Model 375 we are switching to the industry standard male 9-pin connector and pinouts. I will contact the keeper of the Workstation Configuration Guide and ask that BOTH sets of pinouts be included. By the way, netnews is a very slow and capricious way to get questions answered.
