Triac RS232 lead - Pin layout?

Grant_robochallenge · Mon 08 Dec , 2008 12:38 pm

Hi, I am trying to run my 1984-5 Triac via BobCad/Cam on my PC but I do not have the required RS232 cable.
I have bought the connectors to make up a lead, and I am unsure of the pin layout.
Any one have any idea?
Thankyou

from the orac manual (should be the same as triac)

try also

this may help testing your 232 connection.

You may also find the manuals for the triac here, though I've not checked.

Hi Andy, thankyou for that info - but on the Triac it is a 7 pin DIN connector, and not the same as the Orac sadly.
Although I could have done with that info you gave me for a freinds Orac

sorry for the missleading info!
In the manuals dowload section is the scanned manual for the triac- there are connection details there
