A 1:1 contacted, 3-wire cable (not a null modem cable) is required for an
RS 232 connection with software handshake. The operating mode
RS 232
without hardware handshake
must be set on the PC. Contacts should not be
connected unless they are needed. The following contact assignment applies,
depending on the version of the D-Sub socket on the PC:
