Posted 2 Dec 2007 Does anyone know the pin connections so I could make a communication cable or a place to purchase a reasonably priced one. The cable kit at automation direct is $95 seems like that is to much? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted 2 Dec 2007 You think $95 is too much for a cable, you should see some of the others on the market. Some vendors have cables well over $300. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted 3 Dec 2007 does that make not ok to try some other way to get a cable just what is the purpose of this forum. You are the most negative reply person that I has ever seen. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted 19 Mar 2008 The pinout can be found on the Automation Direct website, somewhere :) I found it one day and made a cable with an old phone cord and it works great! Good Luck! Mark Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted 6 Feb 2010 If you want to build DLxx cables very inexpensively (~$8)... Buy one of these RJ12 cables: http://www.l-com.com/search.aspx?q='td...9;&join=All eg TDC027-2 And buy this: http://www.l-com.com/item.aspx?id=2447 (db9-female) or http://www.l-com.com/item.aspx?id=2449 (db9-male) Then configure the plug-in pins, and you're set. That's how we make our DLxx cables at my company. Hope this helps! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
