  • That little cable — serial port interface to 9 pin?

    Posted by John Graves on September 4, 2005 at 9:47 pm

    I have a stealth serial port in my G4. I can’t find the little cable to go to 9-pin deck control. Is it just a standard mini-din to RS-422 cable that I can pick up anywhere?

    thanx

    Call ProMax. It’s a little under $25. http://www.promax.com and then call them as it’s not listed on the website.
