Euro Card Help

Post by Rowboat » Sun 08 Jan , 2012 0:55 am

Does anyone have any information on the wiring for the Euro card?
I have the following on my Starmill going to the 25 pin RS connector:
6 red
7 sheild
8 purple
9 black
10 brown
11 white
12 blue
17 yellow
19 green

This is the connection to the card from the serial port.
I am trying to identify the purpose of each wire.

Anything would help.

Enter as much information about your CNC hardware and software as you can - it makes it easier for everyone to know what you're talking about then.

This shows the 9-way RS232 connection details which will allow you to work out what's what on the 25-way.

Although saying that, those pin numbers you put don't sound right to me - the usual RS232 pins on a 25 way are 2,3,4,5,6,7 and 20
