See, in the same cable specification at Datax page:
JoyNet to PC cable
* The DB-25 connector says (1-12, 2-13):
PC (DB25 /m) pin layout:
12 - RECV pin 1
13 - RECV pin 2
* But the DIN5 connector says the opposite(1-13, 2-12):
RECV (DIN5 180 /f) pin layout:
1 - PC pin 13
2 - PC pin 12
The PC JoyNet cable presented at the official page is to link a PC to an MSX
with a standard JoyNet cable, or inserting a PC in a JoyNet ring.
At my page I presented the scheme for an 'alternative' JoyNet cable, without
the DIN5s connectors, with just a DB9 and a BD25 to link direclty a single PC to
an single MSX.
But as I dont know which in the PC JoyNet cable is right (1-13 and 2-12) or
(1-12 and 2-13), I can't set the correct connections (6-12 and 7-13) or (6-13
and 7-12) at my 'alternative' MSX<->PC direct joynet cable.
Richard states that the correct is the DIN5 (1-13 and 2-12). Therefore (6-13
and 7-12) are correct on my direct cable.
I think Richard did make a PC cable, otherwise he wouldn't state that. But was
he the only one ? Who have already made a PC JoyNet cable ?
Please people help
