Hi
I'm just about to join the ranks having bought a tm1500ci super+. I thought this would ease me in and if I like what I see (excuse the pun) I can move on to bigger and better?
I have read that the cable connections for the required null modem cable are 3-2,2-3 and 5-5. Is this something that I have to make up or are there any off the shelf?
I have a Targus usb to serial digital device cable (with driver)for work but I'm not sure if this is the correct one.
Any advice appreciated.
