After reviewing the posts regarding the pinout for com ports on the gct and researching standard db9 connections, I've compiled this:
GCT DB9
(c5)
1 ri 9
2 vcc ?
3 dcd 1
4 rx 2
5 dsr 6
6 tx 3
7 gnd 5
8 dtr 4
9 cts 8
10 rts 7
Here's my questions: if I make a cable with the crossovers listed above will it add a usable com port? What does the rs232 board from Badflash do? There are 10 items mapped to the 10 pin header, but only 9 used in a db9, so is the vcc (5v) left out? Do 9 pin devices use their own power?
Where can I get a 10 pin 2mm connector and wire?
Thanks for any responses,
-Drun
