"No, TXD is TXD all the way through the path. Yes, the DTE TXD will have the drivers, and the DCE will have receivers, but it is TXD from end to end. RXD is the other way around because the DCE drives that line. Transmit and receive are named with respect to the DTE."
That's great when one equipment is designed to be a DTE and the other as a DCE but sometimes that's nor the case. I think I have connected more equipment with a 2-3 3-2 connection than with 2-2 and 3-3 connection. Perhaps I should have said - identify the transmit pin on the source and connect it to the receive pin on the destination. 73, Andy k3wyc ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html Message delivered to [email protected]
