Studio Color LCD Controller

7-31

If you do not have a null modem cable, you will need the

following (see Figure 7-8 on page 7-31):

• One standard DB9 female-to-DB9 male serial cable.

• One DB9 male-to-DB9 male null modem adapter, or

both of the following:

• One DB9 male-to-DB9 female null modem adapter

• One DB9 male-to-DB9 male gender changer

Note A gender changer looks exactly like a null modem

adapter. It would be a good idea to label them so you

don’t get them confused later.

The top diagram in Figure 7-8 shows the simplest connection,

using a male DB9-to-male DB9 null modem cable. This type

of cable is probably not commonly available. The bottom

diagram shows a connection using standard, off-the-shelf

cabling and adapters:
