By the way as some have suggested connecting pins 1,2, & 3, others
suggest 7,2, &3 you might note that 1 is defined as protective ground
and 7 as signal ground or common.  On most DEC terminals and asynch
interfaces (i.e. VT series, DZ11, DMF32) pins 1 and 7 are hard wired together.

So not to worry, either 1 or 7 works fine.

(not true on some non-DEC terminals)
