Null Modem Cable

The Psion PsiWin cable has a 9 pin female D-connector which normally attaches to a PC. If you want to connect to a modem , then you will need a null-modem cable as well as the normal PsiWin cable. The null-modem cable will need a 9 pin male D-connector on one end (to attach to the PsiWin cable) and probably a 25 pin male D-connector on the other end (to attach to the modem). The connections are:

Psion DB9                               Modem DB25

RxD   Receive Data          2 <-- 2     TxD   Transmit Data

                                  |
