Howdy all,

I have a pro Tascam cassette deck that has a remote control interface. I
want to reverse-engineer it and build a pathway to control it. While
preparing for my new project tonight, I was looking through some
technical documentation and discovered through my manual that my deck
has a sister model with a serial interface:

Naturally, this leads me to think that the interface is probably on the
circuit boards somewhere and just deactivated, as manufacturers often do
to save money. I took some photos and put them here:

Does anyone know of any visual cues I could use when looking for this
interface? Serial often uses a DB9 connector, so this would probably
mean I'm looking for a PCB with a disconnected 9-wire connector,
correct?

If this fails, I will fall to my backup plan of just using the 2.5MM
remote jack, but using a null-modem cable over serial would probably be
ideal for prototyping purposes, I would think.
