So I purchased one DB9 but now i need one for the 3500 which I believe it uses RS232

Nalin Nyda Gold Member Username: Nydas Post Number: 7744 Registered: Jun-06	Posted on Tuesday, January 29, 2008 - 17:54 GMT You are better off buying a DB9 M/F null adaptor. The adaptor can be used with any unknown DB9 F/F cable. That way you will never have to think what cable to to use. Use the cable and if it does not work, insert the adptor in line.
