Default RS232 to 9 pin serial port cable

Just look it up on Google...It sounds like you need a serial adaptor that
gets you from DB9 to RJ11...a fairly common adaptor in the 80's...try
calling a couple of surplusers...
Here is one... http://www.altronics.com
Usually this is an adaptor and you just buy the length of cable you
need...hope this helps....Ross


Thanks Ross. I went ahead and paid the $55 and ordered the cable the day
before your post. I need it pretty quick anyhow as I need to use the
scanner and can't until I've loaded the update.

Those 9 pin to RJxx adapters typically come unwired. You have to configure
them for your own use, which cannot be determined without a wiring diagram.
