The M102 serial port has 25pins located on the rear right hand side and labelled RS-232-c with 25 female ‘pins’. The only 9 pin port on the M102 is the barcode reader port located on the mid-left hand side. Just wanted to check that the correct port was being used to connect to the M102 for serial comms with the laptop?
There should be an adapter with the USB – Serial cable that converts the 9pin connector on the cable to a 25pin connector. Then it will most likely need a 25pin gender changer to make it into a male connector for plugging into the female 25pin connector on the M102.

So you're saying to "short" pins 2 and 3 in that port as the other MikeS says "2nd and 3rd from the right on the bottom row". <snip>
