Null modem cable doubt
« on: August 09, 2007, 04:07:15 AM »
I want to use Amiga Explorer to tranfer adf's files to my A500, I'm reading that I need a nullmodem cable.
What type I need? I don't have my A500 right here so I don't know if the serial port is male or female.
My PC has a 9 pin female serial port.

What is the right cable?

1) db25M - db9M
2) db25F - db9M

Thanks!

Ok,
I'm gonna build a cable about 1 meter (about 40 inches) long for an A500, so I guess shield it won't be necessary.

Please can someone tell me if in this diagram the connector are viewed from the front or the back, 'cause it is a totally different wiring scheme.
thanks
