Dear net, I need to know the pinouts for the DEC/EIA-423 serial ports found on the back of the 3100s. Also -- would anyone have any idea how to build an adapter like the H8571-A to connect an RS232 terminal to a DECconnect DEC/EIA-423 VAXstation? (To the printer port, if that makes a difference). Moreover, has anyone done it? Thanks, Jay Whitney -- Internet: jw@innovative.com Innovative Software UUCP: {uunet,rutgers}!innsoft!jw Seattle, Washington
