Thanks all for answering my question. I looked through old posting but obviously didn't stumble upon Anthony's posting otherwise I would have had my answer.

I made up a short cable to connect the Startech ICUSB422 to the KS-24361 J8 Diagnostic port and I can now connect. This is the final pinout:

Startech                   KS-24361
ICUSB422               J8 - Diagnostic
=========================================
  1  TXD- --------------> RXD- 8
  2  TXD+ --------------> RXD+ 4
  3  RXD+ <-------------- TXD+ 5
  4  RXD- <-------------- TXD- 9
  5  GND  --------------- GND  7
  6  NC
  7  NC
  8  NC
  9  NC

Seems RS-422 is a standard but pinouts vary. Live and learn.

cheers, Graham ve3gtc

Hi

If you dig back a month or so, there is a post with all the pinouts on all the 
connectors.

4       RX+
8       RX-

5       TX+
6       TX-

3 and 7         ground

It’s serial so TX on one goes to RX on the other. + goes to + and - to -.  The 
pins are numbered on the connector in *very* small print.
