[volt-nuts] Solartron 7081 Serial Communication

[Bill Ezell]

The 7081 won't echo any serial input until you enable its output.
Connect, then type 'OUT, RS232, ON' (I think, this is from memory).
After that, assuming your connector is wired correctly, you should then 
see data.
If not, swap 2 & 3 on your connector and try again.
Note that this doesn't carry over a power-off, so you have to do it each 
time you turn on your meter.
