Also, if the logic levels are not up to standard levels, no data would flow. Make sure your sensor doesn't depend on RTS or DTR for power to drive the signal levels. Some RS232 line drivers draw there power from the host device connected to them rather than the local power supply. Most hand helds don't provide the IEEE specified levels or current some devices rely on. Your PC, however, would.
