The problem is that the cabling coming out of the unit is for an Osbourne box, which means that it is a DB9 connector (9-pin) with only 4-wires actually attached. I opened up the case and found that the internal end of the cable is connected to a 9 (or 10?) pin "edge connector". Does anyone out there know which pins are which on the edge connector? What I want to do is to attach this guy to a vt100 type terminal with a DB25 connector. Do I have to get a hold of US Robotics and purchase a cable from them or can I *easily* build one myself? I am not a "hardware type", but feel I could build my own if I what pin did what on the edge connector inside the modem... Thanks in advance for any advice...
