Hi folks,
We are trying to get pinouts and cabling informaiton on the
ten-pin serial connector found on the RT and RS/6000 and are having
remarkably little luck. We have one on loan for porting, and they
did not (and cannot seem to) locate even a part number for these
little ten-pin-to-DB-25 pigtails. Does anybody have the pinouts
or part numbers for these?
Also, it seems that when the CTS input line drops that it sends
a SIGHUP to the process talking to the port. This causes us some
Real Big Problems and we would love to find a way in software to
make this go away. Turning the pin into one for hardware flow control
would be best, but finding a way to have it ignored would be much
better. We want to avoid having to specify a custom cable.
Thanks much, please respond via email if you can help me.
Steve
