 If the Z48B uses the same scheme that the Z38A used, I came up with a
method to get into it.  I removed the memory chip from the battery
backup chip that sits between the memory and the socket on the circuit
board.  After replacing the memory chip I found the Z38A with the
factory default settings including the password.

 Trying to talk to a Z48B, can not find the reset button manual refers

 to, to get menu to come up. Making my own null cable, and so far no

 communications with computer.



 Owner wants to use it only as a tone board for now.



 Open for any ideals, woke up a 4am trying to figure what I'm doing

 wrong.



 Thanks Alex

[Repeater-Builder] Zetron 45-48B db9 cable

2008-10-26 Thread Bill Alexander
Talked to Zetron this week and here is the factory version of correct 
cable, I noted on the 48B manual in file section had a hand written 
Null cable written in, this will only work on receiving data and not 
talking to zetron controller.

PC  RS232
2  3
3  4
5  5

ON PC SIDE cable JUMPER PIN 4 TO 6 AND PIN 7 TO 8

The color code for cable seems to change, so can not give you any help.
I just cut the end off and used shrink tubing to seal the wires.Works 
well.
