[time-nuts] FE-5680A OSMT connector / RS232

[James Peroulas]

For the record, my device did have an OSMT (not Hirose) connector on the
DDS board.

I'm having trouble getting the internal RS232 port on the DDS board to work
and I was wondering if there were any tricks to it? I'm not able to get it
to respond to the 'S' command and when I measure the voltage on the RS232
TX pin (#2 from the left) it's always 0v. Shouldn't it be -12v when idle?

Thanks,
James
