[time-nuts] Lucent KS-24361 RS-422 interface pinout

I sent you my posting earlier today, so hopefully you saw it.  The Lucent unit seems liberal in its interpretation of the pinouts, but once you've deciphered it and got the +ve and -ve pins connected, it works reliably.

Thanks all for answering my question. I looked through old posting but obviously didn't stumble upon Anthony's posting otherwise I would have had my answer.

I made up a short cable to connect the Startech ICUSB422 to the KS-24361
J8 Diagnostic port and I can now connect. This is the final pinout:

Startech                   KS-24361
ICUSB422               J8 - Diagnostic
=========================================
   1  TXD- --------------> RXD- 8
   2  TXD+ --------------> RXD+ 4
   3  RXD+ <-------------- TXD+ 5
   4  RXD- <-------------- TXD- 9
   5  GND  --------------- GND  7
   6  NC
   7  NC
   8  NC
   9  NC

Seems RS-422 is a standard but pinouts vary. Live and learn.

cheers, Graham ve3gtc
